Stocks around the world have fallen this year and the major indexes remain deep in negative territory. As investors consider whether to sell or continue investing, CNBC Pro sifted through nearly 1,500 large- and mid-cap stocks globally and found several large companies with sell ratings or below.

MKM Partners analyst Eric Handler expects the company’s stock to fall to $0.50 due to its broader strategy and capital structure. Wedbush Securities analyst Alicia Reese downgraded AMC from $4 to $2 but believes the company has long-term potential at her target price.

The last two stocks on the list are German energy giant Uniper – which the German government has agreed to nationalize – and Australia’s Fortescue Metals. Three stocks – AMERCO, Isracard and Loews – were excluded from our filter due to the lack of analyst ratings or price targets within the last 100 days.
