Exclusive Article MarketBeat Week in Review – 01/26 - 01/30Written by MarketBeat Staff. Publication Date: 1/31/2026. Stocks had another volatile week that ended with the announcement of the next Federal Reserve chair and a hotter-than-expected December inflation reading. That combination pushed gold and silver lower and may have contributed to losses in other asset classes. Big-tech earnings began arriving this week. Results haven't been bad, but many analysts expected more—particularly around the monetization of heavy AI investments. Still, the outlook for stocks remains generally favorable: each of the major averages rose more than 1% in January. Earnings season is moving into high gear with several significant reports due next week. MarketBeat analysts will be monitoring the stocks and stories moving the market. Here are some of our most popular stories from this week.

Articles by Thomas Hughes It was a rough week for health-insurance stocks, including UnitedHealth Group Inc. (NYSE: UNH). The stock fell sharply after the Trump administration proposed smaller-than-expected Medicare reimbursements to private insurers. Hughes noted that analysts and institutions remain supportive, which could make this a buying opportunity. Trade news related to Greenland rocked rare-earth stocks. Hughes highlighted three rare-earth names with domestically focused production strategies and government support that help insulate them from broader macro concerns. Hughes also shared his five top stock picks for February, featuring familiar names that delivered strong performance in 2025 and show momentum heading into 2026. Articles by Sam Quirke Technical analysis isn't perfect, but it can highlight potential opportunities. This week, Sam Quirke pointed to Qualcomm Inc. (NASDAQ: QCOM), which is flashing a technical signal that suggests it may be oversold ahead of earnings. With expectations low, the risk-reward balance favors the bulls. Like many financial stocks, Bank of America (NYSE: BAC) has traded lower amid concern over the Trump administration's proposed 10% cap on credit-card interest rates. Quirke wrote that a strong earnings report and upbeat analyst sentiment could make this pullback a buying opportunity. Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ: TSLA) reported this week in what often feels like a make-or-break event. Quirke noted the company appeared to quiet some critics, which could set the stage for a retest of its December 2025 all-time high. Articles by Chris Markoch Healthcare stocks began rebounding in 2025. This week, Chris Markoch highlighted three growth stocks in the healthcare sector that don't carry the make-or-break drug risk common in biotech. Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ: MSFT) slipped despite another strong earnings report. Some analysts worry about the company's ongoing AI spending, but Markoch argued there's nothing fundamentally wrong with Microsoft apart from its stock price, which may be approaching oversold levels. Read why the bull case still holds. After a strong report, NextEra Energy Inc. (NYSE: NEE) is trading near 52-week highs. Markoch explained why, even with a premium valuation, NEE is likely to see more growth in 2026. Articles by Ryan Hasson Several of the Magnificent Seven reported this week. Ryan Hasson concluded his earnings preview noting, "the initial price reaction of the market matters less than what their results reveal about the next few quarters..." Read his piece for the full context and what it means for big tech. Energy underpins the AI stack. Hasson noted that energy stocks heated up in the second half of 2025 and that trade should remain strong this year. He highlighted five renewable energy stocks positioned to ride the wave in 2026. Rocket Lab (NASDAQ: RKLB) pulled back sharply after a failed Neutron rocket launch. Hasson explained why analysts are looking past the sell-the-news event, which could present a buying opportunity. Articles by Leo Miller Meta Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ: META) jumped after its fourth-quarter report, which showed its fastest growth since 2021. That momentum has helped investors overlook the company's increased AI spending. Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL) also posted a record quarter, driven by stronger-than-expected iPhone sales. Still, the stock drifted lower amid questions about the clarity of Apple's AI strategy. Earnings season is also a time for buybacks. Miller highlighted three large-cap stocks that expanded buyback capacity, each down at least 20% recently—a sign management may view their shares as undervalued. Articles by Nathan Reiff The chip sector is central to the AI infrastructure trade. Nathan Reiff looked at three leading chip-equipment stocks and which name may come out on top in 2026. With nuclear energy gaining favor, uranium stocks have upside potential. Reiff highlighted three uranium ETFs that could be overlooked winners in 2026. Recent moves at D-Wave Quantum Inc. (NYSE: QBTS) illustrate the promise and risks of the quantum-computing industry. The company made a major acquisition and filed $330 million in shelf registrations to replenish cash—actions that dilute shareholder value and could require more dilution. Still, Reiff explains why analysts remain bullish on QBTS stock. Articles by Dan Schmidt The Trump administration reignited tariff threats over the Greenland purchase in January. While those tariffs are on hold for now, Dan Schmidt analyzed three European stocks built to withstand any tariff impact. As investors rotate out of some expensive growth names, Schmidt explained why dividend-paying consumer staples may return to favor and highlighted three names positioned to stand out in 2026. After a rough few years for gaming stocks, the industry is becoming more bifurcated and smaller. Schmidt covered why that trend may be bullish for Take-Two Interactive (NASDAQ: TTWO), which he argues may be the best—and perhaps the only—pure-play video game stock on U.S. exchanges. Articles by Jeffrey Neal Johnson Congressional trading may eventually be banned, but until then investors watch the stocks Nancy Pelosi trades. Jeffrey Neal Johnson highlighted some of her recent moves and explained how they reflect a sophisticated reloading strategy for many AI names. The eVTOL trade continues to attract attention. Johnson noted BlackRock's passive stake in Archer Aviation Inc. (NYSE: ACHR) and discussed why that investment could signal a floor for ACHR stock. Many Americans are still recovering from Winter Storm Fern, which swept much of the country in late January. Johnson reminded readers that natural disasters can create investing opportunities and highlighted three energy stocks in the reliability trade. Articles by Jordan Chussler The Kraft Heinz Company (NASDAQ: KHC) has long been a staple for income investors. After Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE: BRK.B) announced it is selling its stake, many investors are asking whether the stock is a sell. Jordan Chussler helped answer that question this week. Affordability is a key economic theme in 2026. Chussler wrote about buy-now-pay-later provider Affirm Holdings (NASDAQ: AFRM) and its plan to expand BNPL services to rent payments.
