Exclusive Article MarketBeat Week in Review – 03/09 - 03/13Authored by 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: rising crude prices often weigh on stocks, while falling prices tend to support them. However, the larger issue is uncertainty—specifically, how long the conflict will continue and what "normal" will look like for energy prices when it's over. The economic indicators look generally favorable. CPI came in as expected, continuing 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 meeting and policy decision next Wednesday. Interest rates are likely to remain unchanged. Regardless of the outcome, MarketBeat analysts will highlight the opportunities that volatility creates. Here are some of our most popular articles from the week. San Francisco is the strangest city in America right now—you can hop into a self-driving car and be chauffeured by a robot, but out the window you see addicts slumped in doorways, open-air drug markets, the mentally ill screaming at the sky, and entire city blocks consumed by homeless encampments. It's ground-zero for the most disruptive technological forces of our age, and Erez lives in the Bay Area plugged into the capital, the connections, and the companies reshaping the world—the advancements in AI, blockchain, computing, and biosciences are unlike anything the world has seen before, and a tsunami of disruption is coming for everything all at once. During our most recent broadcast, we exposed what we're calling the most asymmetric opportunity of our careers: an overlooked financial company hiding a multi-billion-dollar blockchain asset Wall Street hasn't priced in—it's one of those rare situations Warren Buffett would describe as raining gold when all you have to do is step outside if you want to get rich. Watch the broadcast before the window closes now 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's $1 Quadrillion AI IPO
Articles by Thomas Hughes SpaceX is one of the most-discussed private companies — and it's not public yet. This week, Thomas Hughes explained why SpaceX is critical to the commercial space industry and why the deal structure will be key to completing an initial public offering (IPO). 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 to 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; many still expect a possible special dividend. Articles by Sam Quirke This week, Sam Quirke noted 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 as more of 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, one of the hardest-hit technology names amid the AI "fear trade." Read Quirke's article to see why the worst may be over. Big oil stocks are often viewed as long-term investments rather than trades, but these aren't normal times. 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, prompting investors to pile back into blue-chip names. This week, Chris Markoch recommended three blue-chip stocks with defensive qualities for the sector-rotation trade. Gold continues to attract attention in the metals and mining space. Markoch also pointed out the emerging copper shortage and why three copper stocks are positioned to pick up the slack from aging mines. Markoch wrote about Evolv Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ: EVLV), the maker of AI-powered weapons-detection systems, which reported a surprise profit this quarter on strong demand 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 Mag 7 over the past 12 months. Ryan Hasson analyzed the latest pullback in GOOGL stock and explained why the fundamentals suggest it's a healthy correction 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), and Hasson helped investors answer the next question: is it time to invest in NBIS? Some investors seek the relative safety of dividend stocks during volatile periods. Looking for yield can be a trap, but Hasson highlighted five high-yield stocks with a track record of outperforming in times of market stress. Articles by Leo Miller This week, Leo Miller offered two ideas for picking stocks in volatile times. One is to look at companies where insiders are buying when shares are out of favor — Miller identified three insider-buying stocks. Investors can also focus on companies that announce 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 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 more promising names in quantum computing. Nathan Reiff also reminded investors that D-Wave remains far from profitability, which is muting investor enthusiasm. Biotechnology looks poised for a strong year, especially companies working on oncology. This week, Reiff highlighted two small-cap biotech stocks that recently launched cancer drugs and the growth challenges they still face. Although gold has lost a bit of its luster, it still looks like a good year to own the metal. Reiff outlined three ways for investors to play gold without taking physical custody of the metal. Articles by Dan Schmidt European stocks have fallen since the conflict with Iran escalated. Dan Schmidt reminded investors that broad selloffs can create opportunities for patient buyers and highlighted three European stocks that may be attractive at a discount. There are signs the crypto winter may be ending, which could bring speculators back to the space. With that in mind, Schmidt offered three crypto stocks that allow exposure without owning specific coins. It's been a strong two weeks to buy oil-related stocks, but which names should investors avoid? Schmidt addressed that with a list of 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 in its earnings report, but Jeffrey Neal Johnson noted a bigger story: the company is being acquired, creating "a classic merger arbitrage scenario for investors." On mergers and acquisitions, Johnson also highlighted the potential tie-up between Cintas Corp. (NASDAQ: CTAS) and UniFirst Corp. (NYSE: UNF). A merger with its largest rival would see Cintas creating an industry juggernaut. Retail earnings this season suggest that while things change, some trends persist. That means 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. Chussler explained why the largest defense-sector ETF is likely to keep rallying amid the conflict with Iran, as it holds companies poised to benefit from increased Pentagon spending. One of the biggest stories of the week was the deal between Hims & Hers Health (NYSE: HIMS) and Novo Nordisk (NYSE: NVO). The two companies went from rivals to partners, and HIMS shareholders appear to be the beneficiaries. The EV trade remains focused on a handful of 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 clear negative for a company like Vail Resorts Inc. (NYSE: MTN), but as Jennifer Ryan Woods explained, it may not be that simple. MTN's price action is muted as investor sentiment remains mixed. Consumers continue to spend, but "choiceful" behavior is likely to persist through 2026. This week, Woods suggested three ETFs holding companies that continue to capture a share of consumers' wallets. 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 broader growth story that goes beyond a compounding dividend. |
