This Month's Exclusive Content MarketBeat Week in Review – 01/19 - 01/23Written by MarketBeat Staff. Article Published: 1/24/2026. After falling sharply on tariff fears to start the week, stocks rallied as most economic indicators point to a strong expansion. An in-line reading on the November PCE inflation index, better-than-expected jobs data and a final third-quarter GDP reading of 4.4% all point to a growing economy. Precious metals tell a different story. Gold and silver pushed to fresh record highs, with speculation that gold could reach $5,000 and silver $100. That suggests some investors are seeking safe havens even as many stocks rise. Corporate earnings will likely separate winners from losers: expectations are for strong results, but recent examples show why forward guidance can matter more than headline numbers. In a quiet move few people noticed...
President Trump just green-lit what could become the biggest AI budget in history. Click here now to discover the name and ticker before this story hits the mainstream >>> Key Points - Stocks rallied after a sharp early-week sell-off; most economic indicators show a growing economy.
- Gold and silver hit new highs, signaling that some investors are seeking safe havens.
- Next week, investors will get the next decision on interest rates as well as some of the Magnificent Seven earnings.
The Federal Reserve meets next week and is widely expected to hold interest rates steady, though markets will scrutinize any guidance about future moves. Many of the largest technology stocks also report earnings next week. MarketBeat's analysts will have every angle covered. Here are some of our most popular stories from the week. Articles by Thomas Hughes Chip stocks have been recovering from a year-end sell-off. Hughes explained why fundamental and technical indicators, plus bullish analyst sentiment, mean the rally in Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ: AMD) still has room for investors to get in. Fastenal (NASDAQ: FAST) acts as a bellwether for the economy. After selling off in the back half of 2025, Hughes noted that FAST stock found support near its 52-week low, and institutions are buying on optimism that catalysts will materialize in 2026. Many regional banks reported this week, and one of the strongest quarters came from Fifth Third Bancorp (NASDAQ: FITB). Hughes suggested the company's strong results could be a springboard to double-digit upside in 2026, largely fueled by its acquisition of Comerica Bank. Articles by Sam Quirke Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ: AMZN) had a solid 2025 but hasn't reclaimed last year's all-time high. Quirke outlined two ways to trade AMZN stock around the company's upcoming earnings report. Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ: TSLA) remains popular with retail investors, and Quirke noted that the debate over earnings will be decisive. The battle between future growth and current valuation should determine the stock's direction after next week's report. Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL) has lagged so far in 2026 and looks oversold ahead of earnings. Quirke explained why investors might consider taking advantage of that setup. Articles by Chris Markoch Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ: PLTR) doesn't report until early February, but investors are already speculating. Markoch highlighted one metric suggesting the smart money is more bullish than it may appear. Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ: MSFT) is limping into earnings. Markoch lays out what matters most when the company reports, the challenges to the thesis, and why the stock may still offer value. He also highlighted three large-cap biotechnology stocks that illustrate ways to manage biotech risk while keeping an eye on catalysts for growth in 2026. Articles by Ryan Hasson Space stocks are expected to have a strong 2026, and Rocket Lab (NASDAQ: RKLB) could be a leader. Hasson noted that, despite RKLB trading near its all-time high, an analyst has raised their price target, suggesting additional upside on a pullback. Defense names are also positioned to perform well. Hasson discussed how the modern defense industry will expand drone use and identified five defense and drone stocks with momentum for 2026. Articles by Leo Miller Shares of Netflix Inc. (NASDAQ: NFLX) have drifted lower despite a solid earnings print. Miller explained why investors remain cautious and why a long-term bull case may depend on clarity around the Warner Bros. Studios deal. Concerns about data center demand persist. Miller suggested the proof may be in dividends and highlighted three companies that have used the increased demand for data center infrastructure to boost dividends by up to 60%. 2021 feels distant for Moderna Inc. (NASDAQ: MRNA), which soared during the COVID-19 vaccine race but has been pummeled since. Miller outlined why there may be signs of life in MRNA stock after its best print in three years. Articles by Nathan Reiff Biotech continues to attract speculative investors. Nathan Reiff highlighted three under-the-radar biotech names with tangible catalysts that could drive growth in 2026. Warren Buffett has retired, but many still watch what Berkshire Hathaway Inc. (NYSE: BRK.B) holds. Reiff pointed to two "Buffett stocks" to consider in 2026 and explained why Berkshire may have sold a well-known healthcare name. D-Wave Quantum Inc. (NYSE: QBTS) has an impressive growth story. Reiff offered three reasons to believe the company could press its advantage in quantum computing. Articles by Dan Schmidt Dan Schmidt wrote about defense stocks as well, focusing on three blue-chip defense names and why each is positioned for a new normal of geopolitical uncertainty and a rising Pentagon budget. After Anthropic's latest update to "Claude Code" rattled software investors, Schmidt suggested it may be premature to exit the sector. He did, however, recommend three software stocks to avoid until the market settles. Articles by Jeffrey Neal Johnson Super Micro Computer Inc. (NASDAQ: SMCI) got a lift this week from positive AI demand signals. Johnson explained that high short interest could set the stage for a short squeeze that pushes SMCI past a key resistance level. He also covered the partnership between Lemonade Inc. (NYSE: LMND) and Tesla to launch autonomous car insurance, and why AI could disrupt the auto insurance industry. Riot Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ: RIOT) also had a win this week, signing a long-term lease with Advanced Micro Devices that validated its Power First high-performance computing strategy. Articles by Jordan Chussler Fund investors should note Jordan Chussler's coverage. The GLP-1 weight-loss space is expanding in 2026 but getting crowded; Chussler highlighted an ETF that provides one-stop exposure to the sector. For cloud exposure without the analysis paralysis, Chussler recommended a cloud computing ETF that is up 48% since the April 2025 market low. With gold and silver creating FOMO among some investors, Chussler suggested three ETFs that offer exposure to both precious metals while retaining the liquidity of equities.
