Low RSI (Oversold) Stocks
164 stocks · Updated May 9, 2026
Stocks with RSI below 30 are technically oversold — experiencing selling pressure of a speed and magnitude historically associated with potential exhaustion and near-term bounces. Contrarian traders monitor oversold readings as entry signals, but in downtrending stocks, RSI can remain below 30 for extended periods. The most reliable oversold setups combine low RSI with other indicators suggesting price stabilization rather than ongoing fundamental deterioration.

Frequently Asked Questions
What RSI level is considered extremely oversold?
RSI below 30 is oversold; below 20 is extremely oversold. In normal market conditions, extreme oversold readings (RSI 15-20) in fundamentally sound stocks have historically had high mean-reversion rates over the following 1-2 weeks.
How do I combine RSI with fundamental analysis?
The most powerful combinations: RSI oversold + stock at 52-week low + strong balance sheet + temporary rather than structural earnings headwind. Oversold in poor-quality businesses does not provide the same mean-reversion signal as oversold in quality companies.
Can a stock stay oversold for a long time?
Yes — in downtrending stocks with deteriorating fundamentals, RSI can remain below 30 for months. The trend is your friend even in extreme readings. Oversold contrarian plays are highest risk and require the most conviction in the thesis.
What is a bullish RSI divergence?
Bullish divergence occurs when price makes a new low but RSI makes a higher low — momentum of decline is weakening even as price hits new lows. This often precedes price recoveries and is a stronger buy signal than absolute RSI level alone.
