This Week's Exclusive Story MarketBeat Week in Review – 01/19 - 01/23Author: MarketBeat Staff. Posted: 1/24/2026. After falling sharply on tariff fears at the start of the week, stocks rallied as most economic indicators show the economy is growing strongly. An in-line November reading on the PCE inflation index, better-than-expected jobs numbers and a final read on third-quarter GDP of 4.4% are all signs of expansion. Precious metals, however, may be telling a different story. Gold and silver pushed to new record highs this week, with some speculating gold could reach $5,000 and silver $100 before long. That suggests some investors are seeking safe havens even as many stocks move higher. As a result, corporate earnings will separate the winners from the losers. Expectations are for strong results, but forward guidance may matter more than headline numbers. In a quiet move few people noticed...

- 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 keep interest rates steady; analysts will be listening closely for guidance on future moves. Plus, 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 a mix of fundamental and technical indicators, along with bullish analyst sentiment, means the rally in Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ: AMD) still has room for investors to get in. Fastenal (NASDAQ: FAST) is often viewed as an economic bellwether. 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. This week many regional banks reported, and one of the stronger reports came from Fifth Third Bancorp (NASDAQ: FITB). Hughes noted the company's solid quarter may set the stage for 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 the stock has yet to reclaim last year's all-time high. This week, Sam Quirke offered two ways to trade AMZN stock ahead of 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 central to the stock's direction. The battle between expected future growth and current valuation will be key after next week's report. Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL) has lagged to start 2026 and now looks oversold ahead of earnings. Quirke explained why that could present an opportunity for investors. Articles by Chris Markoch Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ: PLTR) won't report until early February, but investors are already speculating on where PLTR stock will go afterward. This week, Markoch highlighted the one metric suggesting the smart money may be more bullish than it appears. Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ: MSFT) is limping into earnings. Markoch outlines what matters most when the company reports, the challenges to the thesis, and why the stock may offer better value. He also wrote about three large-cap biotechnology stocks that illustrate ways to manage biotech risk while highlighting 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 among the leaders. This week, Ryan Hasson noted that despite RKLB trading near its all-time high, one analyst raised their price target, suggesting more upside, especially on a pullback. Defense stocks are also poised to perform well in 2026. Hasson discussed how the modern defense industry will expand drone use and highlighted five defense and drone stocks with momentum to watch. Articles by Leo Miller Netflix Inc. (NASDAQ: NFLX) shares keep sliding despite a solid earnings report. This week, Miller explained why investors remain cautious and why a long-term bull case may depend on clarity around the Warner Bros. Studios deal. Questions about data center demand persist. Miller suggested the proof may lie in dividends from companies supporting the data center trade and highlighted three firms that have used increased demand for data center infrastructure to boost dividends by up to 60%. For Moderna Inc. (NASDAQ: MRNA), 2021 feels like a long time ago. Once a big winner in the COVID-19 vaccine race, the stock has 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 continues to attract speculative investors. This week, 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 Berkshire Hathaway Inc. (NYSE: BRK.B). Reiff pointed to two "Buffett stocks" that look like good bets in 2026 and explained why Berkshire may have sold a well-known healthcare holding. D-Wave Quantum Inc. (NYSE: QBTS) has an impressive growth story. This week, Reiff offered 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 stumbled after Anthropic's update to its "Claude Code" spooked investors. While exiting the sector entirely may not be prudent, Schmidt suggested three software stocks to avoid until the situation stabilizes. Articles by Jeffrey Neal Johnson To shareholders' relief, Super Micro Computer Inc. (NASDAQ: SMCI) got 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. He explained how this may be an early example of AI disrupting the auto insurance industry. Riot Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ: RIOT) was another winner this week after signing a long-term lease with Advanced Micro Devices, a move 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 should keep growing in 2026, but it's getting crowded. Chussler recommended an ETF that acts as a one-stop shop for exposure to the sector. Cloud computing can induce analysis paralysis for growth investors. Chussler suggested buying a cloud computing ETF that is up 48% since the market bottom in April 2025. Gold and silver are generating FOMO among some investors. Chussler highlighted three ETFs that provide exposure to precious metals with the liquidity of equities.
