Further Reading from MarketBeat.com MarketBeat Week in Review – 01/19 - 01/23By MarketBeat Staff. Article Published: 1/24/2026. After moving sharply lower on tariff fears to start the week, stocks rallied as most economic indicators point to an economy that's growing strongly. An in-line reading on the November PCE inflation index, better-than-expected jobs numbers, and a final read on third-quarter GDP of 4.4% all point to an expanding economy. But precious metals may tell a different story. Gold and silver pushed to new record highs, with some speculating gold could reach $5,000 and silver $100 in the near term. That suggests investors may be seeking safe havens even as many stocks rise. As a result, corporate earnings will separate the winners from the losers. Expectations are for strong results, but recent examples show why forward guidance can matter more than headline numbers. Imagine a bull market so powerful, every single investor became a millionaire. Not by finding the next NVIDIA or Bitcoin, but by owning a simple index fund.
It sounds impossible. Yet it happened – just a short time ago. Now a legendary figure says: "Brace yourselves. It's about to happen here, in America. But fair warning – it could be the worst thing that ever happens to you."
This story has received little coverage in the press. But if history repeats, it could bump tens of millions of Americans into a 7-figure net worth practically overnight. Click here for the full story. At a Glance - 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. The Fed is expected to hold rates steady, but markets will be listening closely for guidance on the direction of future moves. Meanwhile, many of the largest technology stocks will report earnings. MarketBeat will have every angle covered. Here are some of our most popular articles from the week. Articles by Thomas Hughes Chip stocks have been recovering from a year-end sell-off. This week, Thomas Hughes explained why fundamental and technical indicators, along with bullish analyst sentiment, mean the rally in Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ: AMD) still has room for investors to get in. Fastenal (NASDAQ: FAST) is 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 appear to be buying on optimism that catalysts will materialize in 2026. Many regional banks reported this week, and one of the strongest results came from Fifth Third Bancorp (NASDAQ: FITB). Hughes noted that the company's solid quarter could be a lead-in to double-digit upside in 2026, driven largely by its acquisition of Comerica Bank. Articles by Sam Quirke Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ: AMZN) had a solid 2025 but has yet to reclaim the all-time high from late last year. This week, Sam Quirke offered investors two ways to trade AMZN stock around the company's upcoming earnings report. Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ: TSLA) is a retail-favorite, and Quirke noted the earnings debate—between the stock's future growth and its current valuation—will be key to the stock's direction after next week's report. Read more in Tesla Bulls vs. Bears Are Getting Loud Ahead of Earnings. Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL) has been a market laggard to start 2026, leaving the stock curiously oversold ahead of earnings. Quirke explained why that could be an opportunity for investors. Articles by Chris Markoch Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ: PLTR) doesn't report until early February, but investors are already speculating on its post-earnings direction. This week, Markoch highlighted one metric that suggests the smart money is more bullish than the market might expect. Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ: MSFT) is limping into earnings. Markoch explains what matters most when the company reports, the challenges to the thesis, and why the stock may offer better value. Markoch also wrote about three large-cap biotechnology stocks that illustrate how investors can manage biotech risk while still finding catalysts for growth in 2026. Articles by Ryan Hasson Space stocks are expected to have a strong year in 2026, and Rocket Lab (NASDAQ: RKLB) could be a leader. This week, Ryan Hasson noted that, despite RKLB trading near its all-time high, one analyst raised their price target, suggesting additional upside may be possible, especially on a pullback. Defense stocks are also expected to perform well in 2026. As Hasson wrote, the modern defense industry will expand drone use; he offered investors five defense and drone stocks with momentum to watch. Articles by Leo Miller Shares of Netflix Inc. (NASDAQ: NFLX) continue to trade lower despite what was, by many measures, a solid earnings report. This week, Miller explained why investors remain cautious about the streaming giant and why a long-term bull case may require more clarity on the Warner Bros. deal. The questions about data center demand persist. Miller highlighted three companies that have used the increased demand for data center infrastructure to boost dividends by up to 60%. 2021 feels like a long time ago for Moderna Inc. (NASDAQ: MRNA). The company was among the biggest winners in the COVID-19 vaccine race, but shares have been pummeled since. Miller wrote why there may be signs of life in MRNA stock after its best print in three years. Articles by Nathan Reiff Biotechnology stocks continue to attract speculative investors. This week, Nathan Reiff pointed to three under-the-radar biotech names that have tangible catalysts which could drive growth in 2026. Warren Buffett has retired, but many investors will still monitor what Berkshire Hathaway Inc. (NYSE: BRK.B) holds. Reiff highlighted two “Buffett stocks” that look attractive for 2026 and explained why Berkshire may have sold a familiar healthcare name. D-Wave Quantum Inc. (NYSE: QBTS) has an impressive growth story. Reiff offered three reasons to believe the company may be able to press its advantage in quantum computing. Articles by Dan Schmidt Dan Schmidt wrote about defense stocks this week, focusing on three blue-chip defense stocks and why each is positioned for a new normal of geopolitical uncertainty and rising Pentagon spending. Software stocks are under pressure after Anthropic's latest update to its "Claude Code" spooked investors. While it may not be wise to abandon the sector entirely, Schmidt suggested three software stocks investors should avoid until things settle. Articles by Jeffrey Neal Johnson To the relief of shareholders, Super Micro Computer Inc. (NASDAQ: SMCI) saw a lift this week from positive AI demand signals. Jeffrey Neal Johnson explained how high short interest could set the stage for a short squeeze that pushes SMCI past a key resistance level. Johnson also covered the partnership between Lemonade Inc. (NYSE: LMND) and Tesla to launch Lemonade's Autonomous Car Insurance offering. This deal may be an early example of how AI can disrupt the auto insurance industry. Riot Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ: RIOT) was another winner this week. The company signed 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 pieces this week. The GLP-1 weight-loss space is set to grow in 2026 but is becoming crowded. Chussler highlighted an ETF that serves as a one-stop shop for exposure to the sector. Cloud computing is another area where investors can suffer from analysis paralysis. As Chussler wrote, investors can instead buy a cloud computing ETF that is up 48% since the market bottom in April 2025. Gold and silver are creating FOMO for some investors. Chussler highlighted three ETFs that provide exposure to precious metals with the liquidity of equities.
