Is It Time to Buy February's 3 Worst-Performing Dow Jones Stocks?

February was an OK month for blue-chip stocks. All told, the Dow Jones Industrial Average ended last month 2.2% higher than where it started it.

Not every Dow Jones name followed suit though. Dow constituents Cisco Systems (NASDAQ: CSCO), Verizon Communications (NYSE: VZ), and Amgen (NASDAQ: AMGN) all lost ground in defiance of the bigger trend.

Experienced investors of course know these short-term pullbacks of quality stocks can be a buying opportunity. Just because a Dow Jones stock stumbled in any given month, however, doesn't inherently mean it's worth buying just yet. Investors should still consider the bigger picture for any prospective investment.
