US stocks were hit hard last week as weak economic data and tech sector valuation concerns rattled investor sentiment – creating opportunities for contrarian investors in names that have crashed too much.
At the time of writing, some of the most battered names in the benchmark S&P 500 index currently have their 14-day relative strength index (RSI) well below 30 – signalling potential for a near-term rebound.
Three of these names that look particularly attractive to own heading into 2026 are listed below.
Fiserv Inc (NYSE:FI)
Fiserv’s stock price decline in the final week of October was nothing short of historic.
The financial technology company based out of Milwaukee, WI crashed more than 40% in a single session on a sharp downward revision to full-year guidance and an surprising leadership change.
However – down nearly 70% year-to-date – FI shares seem to have more than priced in the related downside already, especially considering its RSI sits around 15 only at the time of writing.
More importantly, Wall Street hasn’t thrown in the towel on the fintech stock.
The consensus rating on Fiserv remains at “overweight” – with the mean target of about $91 indicating a potential 45% upside from here.
DoorDash Inc (NASDAQ: DASH)
DoorDash shares have been in a freefall ever since the company’s management said it would invest millions into new initiatives, including autonomous delivery technology.
While innovation is key to long-term growth, the timing spooked markets – especially after DASH missed profit expectations for the third quarter.
Much like Fiserv, though, the San Francisco-headquartered firm currently has its RSI pegged at 24 (approximately), indicating deeply oversold territory.
Note that DoorDash retains its dominant market position and long-term vision, which could drive its stock price much higher from here in 2026.
Wall Street also currently rates the Nasdaq-listed firm at “overweight”, with the mean target of $283 indicating it could return as much as 41% over the next 12 months.
Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd (NYSE: RCL)
Royal Caribbean stock has been swept up in the broader market downturn, with its relative strength index now hovering around 25.2 only.
While the cruise industry has faced persistent challenges, from fuel cost inflation to lingering post-pandemic demand uncertainty, RCL has shown resilience in recent quarters.
It’s seeing strong bookings trends, helping margins improve. Therefore, the recent sell-off in RCL shares may reflect macro jitters more than company-specific weakness.
For investors willing to stomach near-term volatility, the stock’s current technical setup could offer a compelling entry point.
As travel demand normalizes and discretionary spending rebounds, Royal Caribbean may chart a course back to calmer waters, which is why Wall Street currently has an “overweight” rating on it.
The average price target of about $345 indicates potential upside of over 35% in RCL.
