Would it be prudent to only focus on the top losers lets say on finviz's home page and then use those companies to isolate a research pool and then pick the one that seems to have to most value or ability to regain said losses.

Smart or not?

Never try to catch a falling knife.

Or in another way to put it, not smart. Stocks with obvious upside will likely not end up in the biggest losers list.

I mean finding stocks that are undervalued is usually a solid investment strategy, whether their currently doing well or not.

However, I don’t think limiting the options to one group or the other to find value is necessarily the best strategy from a risk perspective, but I think searching for the “losers” as a starting point creates too much downside risk and not as much upside risk as that starting point might suggest.

I also think given that we’ve been in a pretty strong market for the better part of a decade, that losing in a winning environment is a red flag and a larger than average risk if we head into a less ideal market.

Not. Past performance, good or bad, has been a horrible forecasting mechanism.
