This Week's Exclusive Article MarketBeat Week in Review – 03/02 - 03/06Submitted by MarketBeat Staff. First Published: 3/7/2026. War, rising oil prices and a weak jobs report combined to weigh heavily on stocks this week. All major indexes fell as uncertainty eroded investor confidence. While a decline is uncomfortable to watch, U.S. equities have held up reasonably well as a group, and earnings season has generally been strong. Markets will likely stay volatile until investors gain more clarity on the length and outcome of the conflict with Iran. Until then, headlines will continue to drive price swings and sustain volatility. Next week brings three key inflation reads. The Consumer Price Index (CPI) and Producer Price Index (PPI) for February are due Tuesday and Wednesday, respectively, and the delayed Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) index for January is scheduled for Friday. Surprises in any of these reports are likely to move markets. 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 were weighed down by war, rising oil prices, and a surprise decline in jobs.
- Without clarity about the length and results of the conflict with Iran, markets are likely to remain volatile.
- Investors will get three separate readings on inflation next week; a surprise move in either direction is likely to move markets.

Articles by Thomas Hughes Amprius Technologies Inc. (NYSE: AMPX) delivered another strong quarter. Thomas Hughes, who has been bullish on AMPX for nearly a year, argues in this week's piece that the company's execution is paying off as revenue and earnings move into a hypergrowth phase. Hughes also covered IonQ Inc. (NYSE: IONQ)'s solid earnings report. The results support the long-term quantum computing thesis, but the company remains far from profitability, which suggests the risks may outweigh the rewards for now. BigBear.ai Holdings Inc. (NYSE: BBAI) remains a favorite target of speculative investors. The stock has been hurt by share dilution, debt and heavy short interest, but Hughes noted that after mixed earnings, institutional investors may be quietly rewarding a stronger balance sheet. Articles by Sam Quirke March 9 will be a critical date for Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ: TSLA). Sam Quirke explained that it's the deadline for Tesla to provide detailed data about its Full Self-Driving (FSD) system to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). What Tesla submits could determine whether investors are willing to pay the "autonomy premium" for TSLA stock. Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ: AMZN) shares fell sharply after the company disclosed aggressive capital expenditures in its last report. Quirke pointed to a key metric that could spark a rebound as meaningful as the selloff. Quirke also reminded investors that sometimes the best deals are the ones you don't make. That seems true for Netflix Inc. (NASDAQ: NFLX), which has rallied sharply since the streaming giant walked away from its bid for Warner Bros. Discovery Inc. (NASDAQ: WBD). Articles by Chris Markoch Wendy's (NASDAQ: WEN) remains under pressure despite reporting a double beat. Chris Markoch explains that while there are reasons to consider the stock a value trap, the high-yield dividend is hard for income investors to ignore. Defense stocks rallied this week amid expectations of increased defense spending. One notable winner was Palantir Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: PLTR), which jumped nearly 15% for the week. Markoch explained why the move wasn't solely driven by the Iran conflict. AeroVironment Inc. (NASDAQ: AVAV) lagged the aerospace sector before its earnings, but Markoch noted the company is well-positioned for projected increases in defense spending, which showed up in its forward revenue outlook. Articles by Ryan Hasson The recent interest in utility stocks goes beyond sector rotation. Ryan Hasson explained that defensive utility companies have become part of the AI infrastructure trade, making them relevant for both wealth preservation and long-term growth. The robotics trade is heating up as an extension of the AI buildout. This week, Hasson highlighted five companies that show how robotics will affect different sectors of the economy. Hasson also argued that the recent sell-off in Rocket Lab (NASDAQ: RKLB) may be creating a buying opportunity for patient investors. The delay of its initial Neutron launch was disappointing, but Hasson believes the correction looks overdone, and buyers are stepping in. Articles by Nathan Reiff Investors seeking AI exposure through ETFs face many choices and little clarity. Nathan Reiff analyzed three straightforward ETFs that target different themes in the AI industry. Sticking with ETFs, Reiff also highlighted three unique ETFs launched in 2026. They're not for every investor, but each uses a distinctive approach with meaningful upside potential. As part of sector rotation, some investors are favoring companies that prove cash is king. This week, Reiff highlighted three cash-rich stocks with strong cash-flow histories to support current and future growth. Articles by Dan Schmidt One of the most impressive tech earnings reports this week came from an unexpected name. Dan Schmidt broke down Dell Technologies Inc. (NYSE: DELL) and why the company's AI-fueled rally may be only beginning. Tariff concerns continue to hang over stocks. Schmidt highlighted three companies that were materially impacted by tariffs but could benefit if tariff pressures ease, particularly with respect to China. The start of 2026 has been rough for software stocks, but Schmidt suggested the pool of sellers may be thinning. That could create an opening in these three under-the-radar software names that can integrate AI into their platforms. Articles by Jeffrey Neal Johnson Super Micro Computer Inc. (NASDAQ: SMCI) has been sold off along with many other "AI stocks" this year. Jeffrey Neal Johnson explained where investors may be misreading the company's strategy and why its large installed base and inventory advantages could help it exceed expectations. It's been a difficult week for Archer Aviation Inc. (NYSE: ACHR). The earnings report underscored how much cash it takes to build a new sector, but Johnson noted the company is making progress on operational milestones that help clarify its future. Oil was among the week's biggest stories, and Johnson argued that in the current chaotic market, scale matters. He highlighted three large, well-positioned oil companies that can thrive amid volatility. Articles by Jordan Chussler Jordan Chussler reviewed the partnership announced between Uber Technologies Inc. (NYSE: UBER) and Joby Aviation Inc. (NYSE: JOBY). The payoff is far off, and so is Joby's path to profitability, which is why analysts have a mixed reaction to JOBY stock. Berkshire Hathaway issued its first earnings report since Warren Buffett retired. The report covered Buffett's final quarter at the helm, and Chussler explained what it suggests about the company's direction. AST SpaceMobile (NASDAQ: ASTS) is a volatile name, but this week shareholders saw a strong bounce after the company reported impressive revenue growth. Chussler noted that while the revenue figure grabbed headlines, the rapidly expanding client roster may be the real story. |
