Bonus Content from MarketBeat.com MarketBeat Week in Review – 03/09 - 03/13Authored by MarketBeat Staff. Date Posted: 3/14/2026. Despite continued volatility, stocks have stayed resilient as investors navigate the fog of war. The story is largely about oil. When crude oil prices rise, stocks often fall — and vice versa. But the larger issue is uncertainty: how long will the conflict continue, and what will "normal" look like for energy prices when it's over? The economic indicators look generally favorable. The CPI number came in as expected, continuing to show that inflation growth 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 decision next Wednesday. Interest rates are likely to remain unchanged. Whatever the decision, MarketBeat analysts will highlight the opportunities that volatility creates. Here are some of our most popular articles from this week. In 1934, the government executed a legal maneuver that transferred billions in wealth overnight—most Americans had no idea it was coming, a small group who saw it early walked away wealthy, and everyone else paid for it. Trump has the same legal authority today, advisors close to the administration believe he's considering using it, and if he does, the transfer happens fast with the window to be on the right side of it already closing. Get the free report on how to position yourself now Summary - 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 the initial public offering (IPO) possible. Hughes also wrote about the earnings report from FuelCell Energy (NASDAQ: FCEL). The balance sheet is improving, but the company continues to burn cash, which underscores 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, which many still believe may include a special dividend. Articles by Sam Quirke This week, Sam Quirke suggested to Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ: TSLA) shareholders: 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 be viewing 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 technology stocks most negatively affected by the AI fear trade. Read Quirke's article to see why the worst may be over. Big oil stocks are frequently considered 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 stock sell-off is a reminder that valuation doesn't matter until it does. That has driven investors back into blue-chip names. This week, Chris Markoch gave readers three blue-chip stocks with defensive qualities for the sector-rotation trade. Gold continues to draw attention in the metals-and-mining trade. However, Markoch pointed out the emerging copper shortage and why three copper stocks are poised 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 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 last 12 months. Ryan Hasson analyzed the latest pullback in GOOGL stock 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 investors answer the next logical question: is it time to invest in NBIS? Some investors are seeking the relative safety of dividend stocks during this period of volatility. Looking for yield can sometimes be a trap, but Hasson highlighted five high-yield stocks that have a history 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 insiders are buying when their stocks are out of favor. That's the case with the three insider-buying stocks Miller identified. Investors can also watch for 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 demonstrate why it's one of the more promising names in quantum computing. However, Nathan Reiff reminded investors that D-Wave remains far from profitability, which has tempered enthusiasm (read more). Biotechnology stocks are expected to have a strong year, especially companies working on oncology treatments. This week, Reiff highlighted two small-cap biotech stocks that have recently launched cancer drugs and the growth challenges they still face. Although gold has lost some luster, it still looks like a good year to own the metal. Reiff outlined three ways for investors to play gold without taking custody of the physical metal. Articles by Dan Schmidt European stocks have been dropping since the conflict with Iran began. However, Dan Schmidt reminded investors that broad selloffs frequently create opportunities for patient buyers. Schmidt highlighted three European stocks that may be attractive at a discount. There are signs the crypto winter may be ending. If so, speculators could be returning to the crypto trade. With that in mind, Schmidt offered three crypto-related stocks that don't require owning specific coins. It's been a strong two weeks to buy oil-related stocks, but which names should investors avoid? Schmidt answered that with a list of three ETFs to 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, which creates "a classic merger arbitrage scenario for investors." Speaking of M&A, Johnson also highlighted the potential merger between Cintas Corp. (NASDAQ: CTAS) and UniFirst Corp. (NYSE: UNF). By combining with its largest rival, Cintas would be creating an industry juggernaut. Retail earnings this season show that the more things change, the more they stay the same. That means Ross Stores (NASDAQ: ROST) and TJX Companies (NYSE: TJX) are once again proving their value to treasure-hunt consumers. Articles by Jordan Chussler In volatile times, it can pay to keep things simple — that's Jordan Chussler's advice. Chussler explained why the largest defense-sector ETF is likely to keep rallying during the conflict with Iran and is loaded with 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 combatants to partners, and HIMS shareholders were among the beneficiaries. The EV trade is focused on a few key names. This week, NIO Inc. (NYSE: NIO) re-entered the conversation after the company reported a surprise profit that could allow it to take more market share in China. Articles by Jennifer Ryan Woods An unusually warm winter might seem like bad news for Vail Resorts Inc. (NYSE: MTN). As Jennifer Ryan Woods explained, the price action in MTN stock is subdued because 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 share of consumers' wallets. Articles by Peter Frank Like much of the broader market, investors will need to choose carefully when investing in regional-bank stocks. With that in mind, Peter Frank explained why several acquisitions are allowing Huntington Bancshares (NASDAQ: HBAN) to expand beyond its Midwest roots, which could signal a growth story that goes beyond a compounding dividend.
