Exclusive Story from MarketBeat MarketBeat Week in Review – 03/09 - 03/13Written by MarketBeat Staff. Date Posted: 3/14/2026. Despite continued volatility, stocks have remained resilient as investors navigate the fog of war. Much of the story centers on oil: when crude rises, stocks often fall, and vice versa. But the larger issue is uncertainty — how long will the conflict last, and what will energy prices look like afterward? Economic indicators look generally favorable. The latest CPI reading came in as expected, further suggesting that inflation is moderating toward the Federal Reserve's target. Earnings season has also reinforced the picture of a resilient economy. All of this sets the stage for the Fed meeting 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 this week. Louis Navellier put the paid version of ChatGPT head-to-head against the FREE version of Elon's Grok, and it wasn't even close—Grok produced dozens of picture-perfect results while ChatGPT struggled to conjure even one. In just 19 days, Elon built a system that Oracle executives said was impossible by connecting 200,000 GPUs in a 114-acre facility, creating what Nvidia's CEO calls superhuman AI, and one tiny company's technology 49 times smaller than Tesla was central to the entire feat. Watch the live demo and get the ticker 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.

Articles by Thomas Hughes SpaceX is one of the most talked-about 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 making its initial public offering (IPO) possible. Hughes also covered the earnings report from FuelCell Energy (NASDAQ: FCEL). Although the balance sheet is improving, the company continues to burn cash, highlighting the challenges that remain to bring hydrogen mainstream. Costco Wholesale Corp. (NASDAQ: COST) delivered a solid earnings report this week. Hughes noted the stock offers a buy-now, get-paid-later scenario, and many still expect a possible special dividend. Articles by Sam Quirke This week, Sam Quirke warned Tesla shareholders to be careful what they wish for. The company reported higher 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, making it one of the hardest-hit technology names in the AI-driven selloff. Read Quirke's piece 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 often doesn't matter — until it does — so investors are piling back into blue-chip names. This week, Chris Markoch highlighted three blue-chip stocks with defensive qualities for the sector-rotation trade. Gold continues to attract attention in the metals and mining space, but Markoch pointed out an emerging copper shortage and why three copper stocks are positioned 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 stocks among the Mag 7 over the past 12 months. Ryan Hasson analyzed the recent pullback in GOOGL and explained why the fundamentals suggest it's 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), and Hasson helped investors answer the next question: is it time to invest in NBIS? Some investors are seeking the relative safety of dividend stocks in this volatile period. Yield can sometimes be a trap, but Hasson highlighted five high-yield stocks with histories of outperforming during market stress. Articles by Leo Miller This week, Leo Miller offered two approaches to picking stocks in volatile markets. First, look for companies where insiders are buying when shares are out of favor — as shown by these three insider-buying stocks. Second, consider companies that announce substantial stock buyback programs. Miller highlighted three names that have announced sizable buybacks, which is generally a bullish signal. After a strong earnings report this week, Marvell Technology (NASDAQ: MRVL) is starting 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. Biotech stocks look poised for a strong year, especially companies working on oncology treatments. This week, Reiff highlighted two small-cap biotech stocks that recently launched cancer drugs and the growth challenges they still face. Although gold has cooled somewhat, it still looks like a year to consider the yellow metal. Reiff outlined three ways for investors to own gold without taking custody of physical metal. Articles by Dan Schmidt European stocks have dropped since the conflict with Iran began, but broad selloffs can create opportunities for patient investors. Schmidt highlighted three European stocks that investors may want to buy at a discount. There are signs the crypto winter may be ending. If so, speculators could re-enter the trade. With that in mind, Schmidt offered three crypto-related stocks that don't require owning specific coins. It's been a strong couple of weeks for oil-related stocks, but Schmidt also identified names investors should avoid. He listed three ETFs to sell as oil continues trading 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 mergers and acquisitions, Johnson also highlighted a potential combination of Cintas Corp. (NASDAQ: CTAS) and UniFirst Corp. (NYSE: UNF). By merging with its largest rival, Cintas would be creating an industry juggernaut. The earnings season for retail stocks shows that some things don't change. That's why Ross Stores (NASDAQ: ROST) and TJX Companies (NYSE: TJX) continue to prove valuable to treasure-hunt consumers, according to Johnson's piece. Articles by Jordan Chussler In volatile times, keeping things simple can pay off. Jordan Chussler explained why the largest defense-sector ETF may keep rallying during the Iran conflict and why it's loaded with companies likely to benefit from increased Pentagon spending. One of the week's big stories was the deal between Hims & Hers Health (NYSE: HIMS) and Novo Nordisk (NYSE: NVO). The two moved from competitors to partners, and HIMS shareholders appear to be the beneficiaries. The EV trade remains focused on a few key names. This week, NIO Inc. (NYSE: NIO) re-entered the conversation after reporting a surprise profit that could help it gain 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 situation may not be so straightforward. Investor sentiment on MTN remains mixed. Consumers continue to spend, but "choiceful" behavior is likely to stay part of the conversation throughout 2026. This week, Woods highlighted three ETFs that hold companies capturing consumer wallet share. Articles by Peter Frank Investing in regional banks requires careful selection. Peter Frank explained how recent acquisitions are helping Huntington Bancshares (NASDAQ: HBAN) expand beyond its Midwest roots, potentially signaling a broader growth story beyond its compounding dividend. |
