Just For You MarketBeat Week in Review – 03/09 - 03/13By MarketBeat Staff. Originally Published: 3/14/2026. Despite continued volatility, stocks have stayed resilient as investors navigate the fog of war. The story is largely about oil: when the price of crude rises, stocks often fall, and vice versa. But the larger issue is uncertainty — specifically, how long the conflict will continue and what "normal" for energy prices will look like when it's over. Economic indicators look generally favorable. The CPI came in as expected and continues to show inflation 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 Fed meeting and decision next Wednesday. Interest rates are likely to remain unchanged. Regardless of the Fed's decision, MarketBeat analysts will highlight the opportunities that volatility creates. Here are some of our most popular articles from the week. Elon Musk's $1 Quadrillion AI IPO
$1 quadrillion would be enough to send a check for $2.8 million to every man, woman, and child in America.
That's how big this opportunity is.
This is set to be the biggest AI IPO in history…
And you could claim a stake today…
Before the company goes public…
Starting with just $500. Click here now because Elon Musk is predicting this investment could jump 1,000x higher from here. In Brief - 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.
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 the deal structure will be key to making an initial public offering happen. Hughes also covered the earnings report from FuelCell Energy (NASDAQ: FCEL). The balance sheet is improving, but the company continues to burn cash, underscoring the challenges still facing efforts to bring hydrogen mainstream. Costco Wholesale Corp. (NASDAQ: COST) delivered a solid earnings report this week. Hughes noted 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 Sam Quirke pointed out that the message to Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ: TSLA) shareholders may be "be careful what you wish for." The company reported increased electric-vehicle sales in China, but that 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 stock is down roughly 80% over the past year, one of the hardest-hit names among technology stocks in the AI fear trade. Read Quirke's piece to see why the worst may be over. Big oil stocks are often thought of as investments rather than trades. But these aren't normal times, which is why Quirke analyzed the surge in Chevron Corp. (NYSE: CVX) and explained why the trade may unwind faster than investors expect. Articles by Chris Markoch The recent sell-off is a reminder that valuation doesn't matter until it does — and investors are returning to blue-chip stocks. This week, Chris Markoch highlighted three blue-chip stocks with defensive qualities for the sector-rotation trade. Gold still attracts attention in the metals and mining space. Markoch also flagged an emerging copper shortage and why three copper miners could pick up the slack from aging mines. Markoch wrote about Evolv Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ: EVLV), a maker of AI-powered weapons-detection systems that reported a surprise profit this quarter on strong demand — a development that 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 Magnificent Seven over the past year. Ryan Hasson analyzed the latest pullback in GOOGL and explained why the fundamentals suggest it's a healthy retracement within a long-term uptrend. The circular AI trade continues. This week, NVIDIA Corp. (NASDAQ: NVDA) announced a $2 billion investment in Nebius Group NV (NASDAQ: NBIS). Hasson helped investors answer the next logical question: is it time to invest in NBIS? Some investors seek the relative safety of dividend stocks during volatile periods. Looking for yield can sometimes be a trap, but Hasson highlighted five high-yield stocks with histories of outperforming in times of market stress. Articles by Leo Miller Leo Miller offered two approaches for picking stocks during volatile markets. One is to watch companies where insiders are buying when shares are out of favor — Miller found three insider-buying stocks worth watching. Investors can also look for companies that announce buyback programs. Miller highlighted three stocks that have announced substantial buybacks, which is generally a bullish signal. After a strong earnings report, Marvell Technology (NASDAQ: MRVL) is closing 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) remains one of the more promising names in quantum computing. Nathan Reiff also reminded readers that D-Wave is still far from profitability, which is muting investor enthusiasm. Biotech stocks are expected to have a strong year, especially firms working on oncology treatments. This week, Reiff highlighted two small-cap biotech stocks that recently launched cancer drugs and explored the growth challenges they still face. Although gold has cooled a bit, it still looks like a promising 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 been dropping since the conflict with Iran began. Dan Schmidt reminded investors that broad selloffs can create opportunities for patient buyers and highlighted three European stocks to consider buying at a discount. There are signs that the crypto winter may be ending. If that proves true, speculators might re-enter the crypto trade. With that in mind, Schmidt listed three crypto-related stocks that don't require owning specific coins. It's been a strong two weeks for oil-related stocks, but which names should investors avoid? Schmidt answered that question with three ETFs investors may want to sell as oil trades at multi-year highs. Articles by Jeffrey Neal Johnson ZIM Integrated Shipping Services Ltd. (NYSE: ZIM) reported a surprise profit, but Jeffrey Neal Johnson noted the bigger story: the company is being acquired. That deal creates a classic merger-arbitrage scenario. On mergers and acquisitions, Johnson also highlighted a possible tie-up between Cintas Corp. (NASDAQ: CTAS) and UniFirst Corp. (NYSE: UNF). A merger 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 has helped Ross Stores (NASDAQ: ROST) and TJX Companies (NYSE: TJX) continue to prove their value to treasure-hunt consumers, as Johnson noted in his piece. Articles by Jordan Chussler In volatile times, keeping things simple can pay off. Jordan Chussler argued why the largest defense-sector ETF could keep rallying amid the Iran conflict — it's loaded with companies positioned 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 went from competitors to partners, and HIMS shareholders benefited. The EV trade often centers on a few key names. This week, NIO Inc. (NYSE: NIO) re-entered the conversation after it reported a surprise profit that could help it take more market share in China. Articles by Jennifer Ryan Woods An unusually warm winter might seem like bad news for a company like Vail Resorts Inc. (NYSE: MTN), but as Jennifer Ryan Woods explained, the reality isn't that simple. MTN's price action is subdued as investor sentiment remains mixed. Consumers continue to spend, but "choiceful" behavior is likely to remain a theme throughout 2026. This week, Woods recommended three ETFs that hold companies positioned to capture a larger share of consumers' wallets. Articles by Peter Frank Investors will need to be selective when buying regional bank stocks. Peter Frank explained why several acquisitions are helping Huntington Bancshares (NASDAQ: HBAN) expand beyond its Midwest roots, a move that could signal a broader growth story beyond its compounding dividend.
