Exclusive News MarketBeat Week in Review – 03/09 - 03/13Written by MarketBeat Staff. Published: 3/14/2026. Despite continued volatility, stocks have remained resilient as investors navigate the fog of war. The story is largely about oil: when the price of crude rises, stocks tend to fall, and vice versa. But the larger story is uncertainty — specifically, how long the conflict will last and what "normal" will look like for energy prices when it's over. The economic indicators look generally favorable. The CPI came in as expected, continuing to show that inflation is moderating toward the Federal Reserve's preferred target. Earnings season has also supported an economy that remains resilient. All of this leads up to the Federal Reserve meeting and decision next Wednesday. Interest rates are likely to remain unchanged. Regardless of the decision, MarketBeat analysts will highlight the opportunities that volatility creates. Here are some of our most popular articles from this week. 3 Signs It May Be Time to Switch Financial Advisors… Your goals aren't being heard, you're making costly tax mistakes, or your portfolio strategy may not be aligned with market conditions.

Key Points - Stocks moved lower this week on investor uncertainty over the length of the Iran conflict and its impact on oil prices.
- The economic indicators remain favorable and support the likelihood that interest rates will remain unchanged after next week’s Federal Reserve meeting.
- Here are some of our most popular articles from this week.
- Special Report: Elon Musk already made me a "wealthy man"
Articles by Thomas Hughes SpaceX is one of the most discussed companies, and it's not trading publicly... yet. This week, Thomas Hughes explained why SpaceX is critical to the commercial space industry and why deal structure will be key to making the initial public offering (IPO) happen. Hughes also wrote about the earnings report from FuelCell Energy (NASDAQ: FCEL). The balance sheet is improving, but the company continues to burn cash, underscoring the challenges that remain in bringing hydrogen mainstream. Costco Wholesale Corp. (NASDAQ: COST) delivered a solid earnings report this week. Hughes pointed out that the stock offers investors a buy-now, get-paid-later scenario, and many still believe it may include a special dividend. Articles by Sam Quirke This week, Sam Quirke suggested the message to Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ: TSLA) shareholders might be: be careful what you wish for. The company reported increased electric-vehicle sales in China, but it wasn't enough to lift the stock, which investors now seem to view more as an AI/robotics play. Quirke also checked in on Atlassian Corp. (NASDAQ: TEAM). The company's stock is down about 80% over the past year, making it one of the technology names most negatively affected by the AI fear trade. Read Quirke's article to see why the worst may be over. Big oil stocks are often treated as investments rather than trades. These aren't normal times, though, which is why Quirke analyzed the surge in Chevron Corp. (NYSE: CVX) stock and explained why the trade may unwind faster than investors expect. Articles by Chris Markoch The recent stock sell-off is a reminder that valuation doesn't matter — until it does. As a result, investors are piling back into blue-chip names. This week, Chris Markoch highlighted three blue-chip stocks with defensive qualities for the sector-rotation trade. Gold continues to attract attention in the metals-and-mining trade. However, Markoch pointed out an emerging copper shortage and why three copper stocks are positioned to pick up the slack from aging mines. Markoch also wrote about Evolv Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ: EVLV). The manufacturer of AI-powered weapons-detection systems reported a surprise profit this quarter on strong demand, which could change the long-term outlook for this speculative stock. Articles by Ryan Hasson Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ: GOOGL) has been one of the best-performing names among the Mag 7 group over the past 12 months. Ryan Hasson analyzed the latest pullback in GOOGL and explained why the fundamentals suggest it's a healthy pullback within a long-term uptrend. The circular AI trade continued this week when NVIDIA Corp. (NASDAQ: NVDA) announced a $2 billion investment in Nebius Group NV (NASDAQ: NBIS). Hasson explored the next logical question: is it time to invest in NBIS? Some investors are seeking the relative safety of dividend stocks during this volatile period. Hunting for yield can sometimes be a trap, but Hasson highlighted five high-yield stocks that have historically outperformed in times of market stress. Articles by Leo Miller Leo Miller offered two ideas for picking stocks in volatile markets. One is to look at companies where insiders are buying shares when the stocks are out of favor — a theme illustrated by the three insider-buying stocks Miller identified. Investors can also watch for companies announcing stock buyback programs. Miller highlighted three names that have announced substantial buybacks, generally considered a bullish signal. After a strong earnings report this week, Marvell Technology (NASDAQ: MRVL) is starting to close the custom-chip gap with Broadcom Inc. (NASDAQ: AVGO). Miller explained why the post-earnings surge may be just the beginning. Articles by Nathan Reiff D-Wave Quantum Inc. (NYSE: QBTS) continues to show why it's one of the more promising names in quantum computing. Nathan Reiff reminded investors, however, that D-Wave remains far from profitability, which is tempering investor enthusiasm. Biotechnology is expected to have a strong year, especially companies working on oncology treatments. This week, Reiff highlighted two small-cap biotech stocks that recently launched cancer drugs and discussed the growth challenges they still face. Although gold has lost some lustre, it still appears to be a good year for the yellow metal. Reiff outlined three ways for investors to own gold without taking custody of the physical metal. Articles by Dan Schmidt European stocks have dropped since the conflict with Iran began. Dan Schmidt reminded readers that broad selloffs often create opportunities for patient investors, and he highlighted three European stocks that may be worth buying at a discount. There are signs the crypto winter may be ending. If so, it could be time for speculators to reconsider crypto exposure. Schmidt offered three crypto-related stocks that don't require owning specific coins. It's been a strong two weeks to buy oil-related names, but Schmidt also flagged what to avoid. He listed three ETFs investors should consider selling as oil trades at multi-year highs. Articles by Jeffrey Neal Johnson ZIM Integrated Shipping Services Ltd. (NYSE: ZIM) reported a surprise profit in its earnings report. But Jeffrey Neal Johnson noted that the bigger story is that the company is being acquired, creating "a classic merger-arbitrage scenario for investors." On the M&A front, Johnson also highlighted the potential merger between Cintas Corp. (NASDAQ: CTAS) and UniFirst Corp. (NYSE: UNF). A deal with its largest rival would position Cintas as an industry juggernaut. Earnings from retail stocks this season show that the more things change, the more they stay the same. That's why Ross Stores (NASDAQ: ROST) and TJX Companies (NYSE: TJX) are once again proving their appeal to treasure-hunt consumers. Articles by Jordan Chussler In volatile times, it can pay to keep things simple. That's Jordan Chussler's advice. He explained why the largest defense-sector ETF could keep rallying during the Iran conflict and is loaded with companies poised to benefit from increased Pentagon spending. One of the week's biggest stories was the deal between Hims & Hers Health (NYSE: HIMS) and Novo Nordisk (NYSE: NVO). The two companies went from combatants to partners, and HIMS shareholders are among the beneficiaries. The EV trade remains concentrated in a few names. This week, NIO Inc. (NYSE: NIO) re-entered the conversation after the company reported a surprise profit that could help it gain market share in China. Articles by Jennifer Ryan Woods An unusually warm winter might seem like a straightforward negative for a company like Vail Resorts Inc. (NYSE: MTN). As Jennifer Ryan Woods explained, though, the story is more nuanced: investor sentiment remains mixed. Consumers continue to spend, but "choiceful" behavior is likely to remain part of the conversation throughout 2026. This week, Woods highlighted three ETFs that hold companies well positioned to capture consumer dollars. Articles by Peter Frank Like much of the broader market, regional bank stocks require careful selection. Peter Frank explained why several acquisitions are helping Huntington Bancshares (NASDAQ: HBAN) expand beyond its Midwest roots, which could signal a growth story that goes beyond a compounding dividend. |
