Further Reading from MarketBeat Media MarketBeat Week in Review – 03/16 - 03/20Author: MarketBeat Staff. Publication Date: 3/21/2026. As the calendar turns to spring, investors are hoping that the March Madness in stocks will end — but they may have to wait. This week, all the major indexes closed below their 200-day moving averages, a technical indicator that can signal investor psychology is turning bearish. That sentiment is being fed by government data showing inflation remains stubborn, which will likely keep the Federal Reserve from lowering interest rates — and some chatter even includes a potential move higher. Investors have overlooked troublesome data before, but what's different now is the overlay of the conflict with Iran. Questions linger about its duration and whether it will escalate; the answers will drive energy prices and influence consumer sentiment. After nearly five decades on Wall Street, Louis Navellier says a major currency shift is already underway - and the wealthiest Americans, including Musk, Zuckerberg, and Ellison, are quietly moving money out of dollars and into a different type of asset entirely. It's not bitcoin or any other crypto. Navellier has identified 7 companies he believes are positioned at the center of this trend - the last time he spotted a setup like this, Nvidia climbed as high as 10,000%. Watch Navellier's urgent briefing and get all 7 company names Key Points - Spring has sprung, but will it help shake off the downturn in stocks that is now in its fourth week?
- Economic indicators show inflation is beginning to move higher, but the central focus continues to be on potential escalation in the U.S. conflict with Iran.
- Volatility will continue, but MarketBeat analysts can still point out opportunities.
- Special Report: Elon Musk: This Could Turn $100 into $100,000
Investors should expect more volatility, but there are opportunities amid the chaos, and MarketBeat analysts can help you find them. Here are some of this week's most popular articles. Articles by Thomas Hughes Retail stocks remain among the most closely watched this earnings season. This week, Thomas Hughes analyzed reports from discount retailers Dollar Tree (NASDAQ: DLTR) and Ollie's Bargain Outlets (NASDAQ: OLLI). Both reported positive current-quarter results but offered cautious guidance. Dollar Tree's catalysts come from restructuring and remodeling. With Ollie's, the story is expansion. Hughes explains why each company may be a compelling value at current prices, laying out both the fundamental and technical cases. Then there's Oklo Inc. (NYSE: OKLO), the manufacturer of small modular reactors, which reported earnings this week. Hughes noted investors may be bottoming the stock after its recent sell-off — a setup that could produce significant upside if the company executes its plans. Articles by Sam Quirke Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ: AMZN) is bucking the sell-off in technology stocks. This week, Sam Quirke explained the technical backdrop suggesting investors may view the post-earnings CapEx sell-off as overdone. Buy the rumor, sell the reality? That appears to be the case with PayPal Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: PYPL). The stock rallied on takeover rumors but then fell sharply, reviving concerns about PayPal's relevance in a crowded payments market. Quirke also wrote about the surge in Cloudflare Inc. (NYSE: NET) after news it might create a stablecoin. He explained why the rapid growth of agentic AI makes the move logical, while noting it could be some time before it becomes reality. Articles by Chris Markoch Investors love stock splits for psychological reasons. After several high-profile splits in 2025, more companies could be candidates to split their stock in 2026 based on price. This week, Chris Markoch highlighted three stocks to watch. Congressional trading hasn't been banned, so investors still pay attention to what members of Congress are buying. Markoch pointed out five stocks that lawmakers have traded in the last 90 days. It's not surprising to read about another high-profile deal from Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ: PLTR), but the company's recent partnership with NVIDIA (NASDAQ: NVDA) should not be quickly overlooked. Articles by Ryan Hasson When markets are moving lower, it can help to ride the hot hand. This week, Ryan Hasson spotlighted the three best-performing stocks in the S&P 500 and explained why each may have more room to run. In broad market selloffs, even quality names can go on sale. Hasson pointed investors to five large-cap stocks that are oversold despite solid fundamentals — so it may be time to start a shopping list. The downturn in tech has a lot to do with valuation and fears of unrealistic growth projections, but that's not the case for the two technology stocks that are holding their own in a volatile market. Articles by Leo Miller The AI infrastructure trade has many layers, which is why shares of Credo Technology (NASDAQ: CRDO) and Astera Labs (NASDAQ: ALAB) have been moving higher. Leo Miller highlighted those stocks and explained the dynamics likely to push them higher. Miller also examined under-the-radar names such as Keysight Technologies (NYSE: KEYS), outlining the role it plays in the AI and defense spending boom and flagging valuation concerns investors should consider. What's in a name? In Everpure's case, quite a lot. The company formerly known as Pure Storage changed its name to reflect a shift toward an intelligent data-management platform, and Miller noted the post-earnings drop shows what investors really care about. Articles by Nathan Reiff D-Wave Quantum Inc. (NYSE: QBTS) remains an enticing name in quantum computing, but Nathan Reiff explained why IBM's quantum research poses a challenge to D-Wave, both technologically and on the balance-sheet front. There seems to be a new headline about GLP-1 drugs every week, which can be confusing for investors. Reiff highlighted three players in the GLP-1 space that may be worth watching closely. Stocks and bonds often move inversely. The bond market may not be on fire, but Reiff wrote about two active bond ETFs that are off to a strong start in 2026. Articles by Dan Schmidt Volatile markets can create opportunities for momentum traders who are comfortable with risk. Dan Schmidt used technical indicators this week to highlight three rebound candidates with bullish technical tailwinds. Much of the talk around the Strait of Hormuz focuses on oil, but Schmidt pointed out it's also a key artery for the plant nutrients required to make fertilizer. That's creating a supply-demand imbalance that could send three fertilizer stocks soaring. Articles by Jeffrey Neal Johnson In addition to oil and fertilizer, the closure of the Strait of Hormuz affects the supply chain for chemical stocks. Jeffrey Neal Johnson explained what's happening in the Strait and why it's bullish for two chemical stocks with attractive defensive traits. The AI revolution is moving fast, and Johnson suggested investors look beyond chipmakers and data-center names to consider retailers using AI in their supply chains. He pointed to two top retail names that are deploying AI to improve operations. Good enough hasn't been good enough this earnings season, but a substantial beat gets attention. That was the case with El Pollo Loco (NASDAQ: LOCO), and Johnson highlighted why the company's strong report positions it well in the fast-casual market. Articles by Jennifer Ryan Woods Home Depot (NYSE: HD) is an example of a quality company operating in a tough environment. The housing and renovation market remains weak, but Jennifer Ryan Woods noted that analysts remain bullish on HD stock, and even a modest recovery could reward investors who buy on weakness. Wayfair Inc. (NYSE: W) has been on a tariff-induced roller coaster, climbing nearly 500% at its peak. With the stock pulling back, Woods explained why analysts are scrutinizing its mixed earnings and why investors may want to do the same. Expedia Group (NASDAQ: EXPE) has become a complicated trade after issuing cautious guidance for 2026, prompting a rethink of margin expectations. Woods analyzed both why the stock looks attractive and the reasons for concern in this piece. Articles by Peter Frank Interactive Brokers Group (NASDAQ: IBKR) is up more than 50% over the past 12 months. Peter Frank explained why the fast-growing brokerage may continue to outperform, while also noting potential headwinds if interest rates fall or trading activity slows. Like many financial services firms, Stifel Financial (NYSE: SF) enjoyed a strong 2025. Frank warned that "when you play the market with a stock that's dependent on the market, there's always risk," and encouraged readers to decide if SF stock fits their portfolio. |
