Monday proved to be a rough day for many listed companies, with the S&P/ASX 200 Index (ASX: XJO) sliding 1.17%.

Unfortunately, the downturn sent some stocks crashing to the lowest they’d been in at least a year.

Here are 5 ASX 200 shares that slumped to new 52-week lows today.

These ASX 200 shares hit new 52-week lows on Monday

Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Ltd (ASX: ANZ)

The ANZ share price was one of the better performers of the S&P/ASX 200 Financial Index (ASX: XFJ) on Monday.

Sadly, that wasn’t enough to save it from hitting its lowest point of the last 12 months.

The bank’s stock slipped 2.5% to $24.65 in intraday trade – a new 52-week low.

That’s 16.8% lower than its 52-week high of $29.64.

REA Group Limited (ASX: REA)

The REA share price also struggled on Monday. At one point it tumbled 4.4% to a new 52-week low of $127.04.

There’s no clear explanation for the company’s suffering today. However, it might have been caught up in the broader tech sell-off.

While not technically a tech share, REA operates real estate advertising websites and often gets lumped in with the technology sector.

The S&P/ASX 200 Info Tech Index (ASX: XIJ) plunged 4.6% on Monday. Meanwhile, the S&P/ASX All Technology Index (ASX: XTX) slid 4.1% lower.

Codan Limited (ASX: CDA)

Another share caught up in today’s tech mayhem was Codan.

Its share price tumbled to a new 52-week low of $6.96.

That’s 4.5% lower than it was at the end of Friday’s session and 64% lower than its 52-week high of $19.43.

The communications focused ASX 200 tech stock has had a shocking start to 2022. It has fallen 26% year to date.

Fisher & Paykel Healthcare Corp Ltd (ASX: FPH)

Another ASX 200 share that has suffered through 2022 so far is Fisher & Paykel.

The healthcare giant’s share price has tumbled 20% since the start of this year. Today, it hit a new 52-week low of $24.61.

That’s 4.4% lower than where the stock finished last week’s trade.

Boral Limited (ASX: BLD)

Finally, the Boral share price knocked 10 cents off its previous 52-week low today, dragging it down to $3.43 in intraday trade.

The ASX 200 building products and construction materials manufacturer’s stock has been trading at or around its 52-week low since it issued a $3 billion capital return to its shareholders last month.
