Further Reading from MarketBeat.com MarketBeat Week in Review – 01/19 - 01/23Reported by MarketBeat Staff. First Published: 1/24/2026. After falling sharply on tariff fears early in the week, stocks rallied as most economic indicators point to a strongly growing economy. 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% are all examples of an expanding economy. But precious metals tell a different story. Gold and silver both pushed to new record highs, with some suggesting gold could reach $5,000 and silver $100 by the time investors read this. That suggests investors may be seeking safe havens even as many stocks climb. As a result, corporate earnings will separate the winners from the losers. The expectation is for strong earnings, but recent results have shown why forward guidance may matter more than headline numbers. The Treasury Department just issued a stunning warning:
U.S. banks could lose up to $6.6 trillion of customer deposits as Americans rush into a new form of money…
That's just been authorized under President Trump's highly controversial new law, S.1582. Go here for details, while you still have time to get ahead of it. Quick Look - 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 expected to hold rates steady; analysts will be listening closely for guidance on the path of future moves. Also, many of the largest technology stocks will report earnings. MarketBeat analysts 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 are buying on optimism that catalysts for FAST will materialize in 2026. Many regional banks reported this week, and one of the strongest quarters came from Fifth Third Bancorp (NASDAQ: FITB). Hughes noted the company's strong quarter may be a solid lead-in to double-digit upside in 2026, primarily fueled by its acquisition of Comerica Bank. Articles by Sam Quirke Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ: AMZN) had a solid 2025 but has not reclaimed its all-time high. This week, Sam Quirke offered investors two ways to trade AMZN stock around the company's upcoming earnings report. Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ: TSLA) remains a favorite among retail investors. Quirke noted the earnings debate will center on the tension between future growth and current valuation — a key determinant of the stock's direction after next week's report. Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL) has lagged so far in 2026, leaving it curiously oversold ahead of earnings. Quirke explained why that condition could present an opportunity for investors. Articles by Chris Markoch Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ: PLTR) won't report earnings until early February, but investors are already speculating on the reaction. Markoch highlighted the one metric that suggests the smart money is more bullish than it appears. 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 represent a better value. Markoch also highlighted three large-cap biotechnology stocks that show ways to manage biotech risk while offering catalysts for growth in 2026. Articles by Ryan Hasson Space stocks are expected to do well 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, an analyst raised its price target, suggesting further upside on a pullback. Defense stocks are also expected to perform well in 2026. Hasson highlighted how the modern defense industry will expand drone use and offered investors five defense and drone stocks gaining momentum for the year. Articles by Leo Miller Shares of Netflix Inc. (NASDAQ: NFLX) continue to fall despite what was, by most 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 depend on clarity around the Warner Bros. Studios deal. The debate over data center demand persists. Miller wrote that the proof may be in dividends paid by companies supporting the data center trade, highlighting three firms that have used increased demand for infrastructure to boost dividends by up to 60%. 2021 feels like a long time ago for Moderna Inc. (NASDAQ: MRNA). Once a big COVID-19 vaccine winner, the stock has been pummeled in recent years. Miller explained why there may be signs of life in MRNA after its best print in three years. Articles by Nathan Reiff Biotech stocks remain a magnet for speculative investors. This week, Nathan Reiff directed readers to 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 highlighted two "Buffett stocks" that look like solid bets in 2026 and discussed why Berkshire may have sold a well-known healthcare name. D-Wave Quantum Inc. (NYSE: QBTS) has delivered an impressive growth story. This week, Reiff gave three reasons to believe the company may be able to press its advantage in quantum computing. Articles by Dan Schmidt Dan Schmidt also covered defense stocks, focusing on three blue-chip defense names and why each is positioned for a new normal of geopolitical uncertainty and a rising Pentagon budget. Software stocks are under pressure after Anthropic's latest update to its "Claude Code" rattled investors. While exiting the sector may not be wise, Schmidt identified three software stocks to avoid until the dust settles. Articles by Jeffrey Neal Johnson To the relief of shareholders, Super Micro Computer Inc. (NASDAQ: SMCI) got a lift this week from positive AI demand signals. Jeffrey Neal Johnson explained that high short interest could set the stage for a short squeeze that might push 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, an innovation that may be an early example of how AI could disrupt auto insurance pricing. Riot Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ: RIOT) was another winner 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 pieces this week. The GLP-1 weight-loss space is expected to keep growing in 2026 but is getting crowded; Chussler pointed to an ETF that acts as a one-stop shop for exposure to the sector. Cloud computing can cause analysis paralysis. Or, as Chussler wrote, investors can buy a cloud computing ETF that is up 48% since the market bottom in April 2025. Gold and silver are starting to create full-blown FOMO (fear of missing out) among some investors. Chussler highlighted three ETFs that provide exposure to precious metals with the liquidity of equities.
