Just For You MarketBeat Week in Review – 03/09 - 03/13Reported by MarketBeat Staff. Published: 3/14/2026. Despite continued volatility, stocks have stayed resilient as investors navigate the fog of war. Much of the story centers on oil: when crude prices rise, stocks often decline, and vice versa. But the bigger issue is uncertainty — specifically, how long the conflict will last and what "normal" will look like for energy prices afterward. Economic indicators generally look favorable. CPI came in as expected, showing inflation is moderating toward the Federal Reserve's target. Earnings season has also supported the view of an economy that remains resilient. All of this leads into the Fed meeting and decision next Wednesday. Interest rates are likely to remain unchanged. Whatever the outcome, MarketBeat analysts will highlight the opportunities that volatility creates. Here are some of our most popular articles from the week. Why is the White House suddenly building a new "Fort Knox?" Hidden inside this fortress lies a critical new resource Moody's calls "the new oil." Demand is doubling every 6 months, and Fox News is calling it the "new arms race." On April 20, a major event could ignite a handful of under-the-radar stocks, setting off what could be biggest commodity boom in history. Click here for all the details. 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.

Articles by Thomas Hughes SpaceX is one of the most talked-about companies, and it's not yet trading publicly. This week, Thomas Hughes explained why SpaceX is critical to the commercial space industry and why the deal structure will be key to making the initial public offering (IPO) 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 that remain to bring hydrogen mainstream. Costco Wholesale Corp. (NASDAQ: COST) delivered a solid earnings report this week. Hughes noted the stock presents a buy-now, get-paid-later scenario, and many still expect a potential special dividend. Articles by Sam Quirke This week, Sam Quirke suggested Tesla shareholders should be careful what they wish for. The company reported higher EV sales in China, but that wasn't enough to lift the stock, which investors increasingly view as more of an AI/robotics play. Quirke also checked in on Atlassian Corp. (NASDAQ: TEAM). The stock is down roughly 80% over the past year, making it one of the most negatively affected technology names in the AI-driven selloff. Read Quirke's piece to see why the worst may be over. Big oil stocks are often thought of as long-term investments rather than trades. These aren't normal times, though, so Quirke analyzed the surge in Chevron Corp. (NYSE: CVX) stock and explained why the rally 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. As a result, investors are rotating back into blue-chip names. This week, Chris Markoch highlighted three blue-chip stocks with defensive qualities for the sector rotation trade. While gold is getting a lot of attention, Markoch pointed out an emerging copper shortage and explained why three copper stocks could help fill the gap left by aging mines. Markoch also covered Evolv Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ: EVLV). The AI-powered weapons-detection systems maker reported a surprise profit this quarter on strong demand — a development that could materially change the outlook for this speculative stock. Articles by Ryan Hasson Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ: GOOGL) has been one of the best performers among the Mag 7 over the past 12 months. Ryan Hasson analyzed the recent pullback in GOOGL and explained why the fundamentals suggest this is a healthy dip 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 question: is it time to consider NBIS? Some investors are seeking the relative safety of dividend stocks during this volatile period. Hunting for yield can be a trap, but Hasson highlighted five high-yield stocks that have historically outperformed amid market stress. Articles by Leo Miller This week, Leo Miller offered two ideas for picking stocks in choppy markets. One is to look at companies where insiders are buying when shares are out of favor — illustrated by the three insider-buying stocks he identified. Investors can also watch for companies that announce substantial buyback programs. Miller highlighted three stocks that have announced large repurchase plans, which is typically a bullish signal. After a strong earnings report this week, Marvell Technology (NASDAQ: MRVL) is narrowing 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 most promising names in quantum computing. Nathan Reiff also reminded readers that D-Wave remains far from profitability, a factor tempering investor enthusiasm. Biotechnology is poised for a strong year, particularly in oncology. This week, Reiff highlighted two small-cap biotech stocks that recently launched cancer drugs and explained the growth challenges they still face. Although gold has cooled slightly, it still looks attractive this year. Reiff outlined three ways to own gold without taking physical custody of the metal. Articles by Dan Schmidt European stocks have fallen since the conflict escalated, but broad selloffs often create opportunities for patient investors. Schmidt highlighted three European stocks investors may want to buy at a discount. There are signs the crypto winter may be ending. If so, speculative traders could re-enter the space. Schmidt offered three crypto-related stocks that let investors play the rebound without owning specific coins. It's been a strong couple of weeks for oil-related stocks, but some investments deserve caution. Schmidt listed three ETFs investors may want to sell as oil trades near multi-year highs. Articles by Jeffrey Neal Johnson ZIM Integrated Shipping Services Ltd. (NYSE: ZIM) reported a surprise profit, but Jeffrey Neal Johnson noted that isn't the biggest story for the stock. ZIM is being acquired, a development Johnson described as "a classic merger arbitrage scenario for investors." On the M&A front, Johnson also examined the potential merger between Cintas Corp. (NASDAQ: CTAS) and UniFirst Corp. (NYSE: UNF). A combination with its largest rival would, Johnson argues, create an industry juggernaut. Earnings from retail stocks this season reinforce that the more things change, the more they stay the same. That dynamic has Ross Stores (NASDAQ: ROST) and TJX Companies (NYSE: TJX) once again proving their appeal to bargain-hunting consumers. Articles by Jordan Chussler In volatile markets, simplicity can pay. Jordan Chussler explained why the largest defense-sector ETF may keep rallying amid the Iran conflict and is packed 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 companies moved from rivals to partners, and HIMS shareholders are benefitting. The EV trade often focuses on a few marquee names. This week, NIO Inc. (NYSE: NIO) re-entered the conversation after reporting a surprise profit that could help it capture more market share in China. Read more here. Articles by Jennifer Ryan Woods An unusually warm winter might seem like bad news for a company such as Vail Resorts Inc. (NYSE: MTN), but as Jennifer Ryan Woods explained, the story is more nuanced. MTN's price action is muted as investor sentiment remains mixed. Consumers continue to spend, but "choiceful" behavior is likely to persist through 2026. Woods suggested 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 how several acquisitions are helping Huntington Bancshares (NASDAQ: HBAN) expand beyond its Midwest base, which could signal a broader growth story that goes beyond a compounding dividend. |
