Sealy (NYSE: ZZ) is another one of those cheap stocks that's up big from lows achieved earlier in the year. When I say cheap, I don't mean value. I'm talking about a low-priced equity. The kind of equity that is priced below $5 per share. In the case of Sealy, its shares could be had, as of the close of trading on Tuesday, for $1.96.
But wait, you could have gotten it even cheaper in the after-hours session, because shares of the bedding manufacturer traded down to $1.82 on its Q2 report. I have to agree with the market. Although there were some positive elements contained in the release, overall, I wasn't impressed enough by the numbers to become a buyer.
