The Forgotten Middle Class of the Stock Market VIEW IN BROWSER By Michael Salvatore, Editor, TradeSmith Daily As we close out the year and our Anti-Predictions series for 2026, I want to share one last idea with you. This series has been about identifying data-driven setups in lieu of the traditional stock market “predictions” you see this time of year. And in this final installment, I focus on a setup I believe is being totally overlooked by the masses (for now) – mid-cap stocks. Most of the conversation heading into 2026 is about small caps. And I get it: Every investor and their dog is counting on lower rates, and they think small-cap stocks will benefit most. I understand the logic. And small-cap stocks should do just fine. But when I step back and study the data, that’s just not where I see the cleanest risk-reward profile. In today’s video, I’ll show you why mid-caps sit in a powerful sweet spot. Historically, they have outperformed both large caps and small caps over the long haul. They tend to be more established, more profitable, and better positioned to benefit from easier financial conditions without taking on the same level of risk. I’ll also revisit a familiar historical parallel – the mid-1990s. Back then, rising liquidity and contained inflation created a very favorable environment for stocks – leading to the dot-com boom. But what most don’t realize is that in the following bust, mid-cap stocks vastly outperformed large caps. That makes them an essential part of your portfolio if the AI boom ever meets a similar fate. Finally, I’ll show you exactly how I use TradeSmith’s software to screen for mid-cap stocks that are already beating the market, trading at reasonable valuations, and showing strong internal health. And I’ll show you a great list of stocks with these qualities to watch next year. Get the full details on my Anti-Prediction for 2026 by clicking the thumbnail below.

You can see why. Consumer confidence just hit a 3-year low. Layoffs are at a 22-year high. And tech stocks are plummeting. Yet while most investors panic, Jeff Clark sees opportunity. His simple 3-step “Crossfire” technique could profit from crashes, with past gains of 388%, 1,263%, and 1,285%. And anyone can learn this technique to protect their retirement.
