Special Report 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. A large part of the story is oil: when the price of crude rises, stocks tend to fall, and vice versa. But the bigger issue is uncertainty—specifically, how long the conflict will continue and what "normal" will look like for energy prices when it ends. The economic indicators look generally favorable. The CPI reading came in as expected and continues to show that inflation is moderating toward the Federal Reserve's preferred target. Earnings season has also supported the view of an economy that remains resilient. All of this leads up to the Fed's meeting and decision next Wednesday. Interest rates are likely to remain unchanged, but regardless of the outcome, MarketBeat analysts will highlight the opportunities that volatility creates. Here are some of our most popular articles from this week. We've found The Next Elon Musk… and what we believe to be the next Tesla. It's already racked up $26 billion in government contracts. Peter Thiel just bet $1 Billion on it. 👉 Unlock the ticker now and get it completely free. 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's "Hidden" Company
Articles by Thomas Hughes SpaceX is one of the most talked-about companies, and it's not publicly traded...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 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, highlighting the challenges of 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 a special dividend is possible. Articles by Sam Quirke This week, Sam Quirke suggested the message to Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ: TSLA) shareholders may be: be careful what you wish for. The company reported increased EV sales in China, but that wasn't enough to lift the stock, which investors now view as more of an AI/robotics play. Quirke also checked in on Atlassian Corp. (NASDAQ: TEAM). The company's stock is down roughly 80% over the past year, making it one of the hardest-hit technology stocks in the AI fear trade. Read Quirke's piece to see why the worst may be over. Big oil stocks are often viewed as investments rather than trades, but these aren't normal times. 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 sell-off is a reminder that valuation "doesn't matter until it does," prompting a rotation back into blue-chip names. This week, Chris Markoch highlighted three blue-chip stocks with defensive qualities suitable for a sector-rotation trade. Gold continues to attract attention, but Markoch pointed to an emerging copper shortage and why three copper stocks may be positioned to pick up the slack from aging mines. Markoch also covered Evolv Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ: EVLV). The maker 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 over the past 12 months. Ryan Hasson analyzed the latest pullback in GOOGL and explained why the fundamentals suggest this is a healthy pullback 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 answer 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. Looking for yield can be a trap, but Hasson highlighted five high-yield stocks with histories of outperforming in times of market stress. Articles by Leo Miller This week, Leo Miller offered two ideas for picking stocks in volatile markets. One is to look at companies where insiders are buying when shares are out of favor—illustrated by the three insider-buying stocks Miller identified. Investors can also watch companies that announce stock buyback programs. Miller highlighted three names that have announced substantial buybacks, which is generally a bullish signal. After a strong earnings report this week, Marvell Technology (NASDAQ: MRVL) is beginning 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 also reminded investors that D-Wave remains far from profitability, which is tempering investor enthusiasm. Biotechnology is expected to be strong this year, especially for oncology-focused companies. Reiff highlighted two small-cap biotech stocks that recently launched cancer drugs and discussed the growth challenges they still face. Although gold has lost a bit of its luster, it still looks like a solid year for the yellow metal. Reiff outlined three ways to own gold without taking physical custody. Articles by Dan Schmidt European stocks have fallen since the conflict with Iran began, but Dan Schmidt noted that broad selloffs often create opportunities for patient investors. He highlighted three European stocks that may be worth buying at a discount. There are signs the crypto winter may be ending. If so, this could be a time for speculators to re-enter the space. Schmidt offered three crypto-related stocks that let investors gain exposure without owning specific coins. It's been a strong fortnight for oil-related names, but which stocks should investors avoid? Schmidt compiled a list of three ETFs 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 the bigger story is the company's acquisition. The buyout creates "a classic merger arbitrage scenario for investors." On the mergers and acquisitions front, Johnson also examined the potential 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 put Ross Stores (NASDAQ: ROST) and TJX Companies (NYSE: TJX) back in the spotlight, proving their appeal to treasure-hunt consumers. Articles by Jordan Chussler In volatile times, keeping things simple can pay off. Jordan Chussler explained why the largest defense-sector ETF could keep rallying during the Iran conflict and is full of 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 competitors to partners, and HIMS shareholders are the beneficiaries. The EV conversation remains focused on a few names. This week, NIO Inc. (NYSE: NIO) re-entered it after reporting a surprise profit that could help it gain market share in China. Articles by Jennifer Ryan Woods An unusually warm winter might suggest a falling stock price for Vail Resorts Inc. (NYSE: MTN), but as Jennifer Ryan Woods explained, it may not be so simple. MTN's price action is subdued as 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 holding companies that continue to capture a growing share of consumers' wallets. Articles by Peter Frank Investing in regional bank stocks requires careful selection. Peter Frank explained how several acquisitions are helping Huntington Bancshares (NASDAQ: HBAN) expand beyond its Midwest roots—a move that could signal a larger growth story beyond a compounding dividend. |
