MarketBeat Week in Review – 01/12 - 01/16
Authored by MarketBeat Staff. Published: 1/17/2026.
Data-driven investors have reason to be optimistic. The latest labor numbers remained firm, inflation held at a manageable level, and the 30-year mortgage rate ticked lower. The data may not demand additional rate cuts — but they also suggest the economy may not need them. That outcome supports those who expect stocks to move higher in 2026.
Bank earnings were generally solid, but many stocks slumped on valuation concerns. Could that be a theme for the rest of earnings season? Investors will get more clarity next week as the reporting period ramps up.
U.S. markets will be closed on Monday in observance of Martin Luther King Jr. Day. However, some important economic reports are still scheduled for release, including the October and November PCE index data, which will be published on Friday. These reports were delayed due to the government shutdown.

Articles by Thomas Hughes
This week, Thomas Hughes reminded investors that the deal between Oklo Inc. (NYSE: OKLO) and Meta Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ: META) illustrates the risk of being on the wrong side of a trade. That's especially true for Oklo, which appears to be in rebound mode.
Delta Air Lines (NYSE: DAL) reported strong results this week, yet the stock fell as some investors judged the report not "good enough." Hughes analyzed the report and explained why that short-term overreaction creates a compelling buy-the-dip opportunity.
Many investors may wonder what GPU-as-a-Service really means and which stocks stand to benefit. Hughes answered both questions in his piece on the five best GPU-as-a-Service picks for 2026, identifying the stock he views as the clear winner.
Articles by Sam Quirke
If early earnings are any indication, it may be a rough stretch for Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ: TSLA) shareholders. Sam Quirke explained why the long-term bull case for TSLA is under pressure from the bears, leaving little room for error when Tesla reports in a few weeks.
Qualcomm Inc. (NASDAQ: QCOM) will also need to deliver in its upcoming report. Quirke argued that a recent downgrade is more a cautionary flag than a sell signal, and that QCOM may have a more favorable setup than many expect.
The noise around Netflix Inc. (NASDAQ: NFLX) is becoming almost binge-worthy. Quirke noted that the bearish momentum may be running out of steam, which could make NFLX a buy after it reports next week.
Articles by Chris Markoch
Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ: PLTR) has both staunch supporters and vocal critics. This week, Chris Markoch outlined three reasons many investors remain skeptical about PLTR and assessed how much weight institutional investors should give those concerns.
Despite signs of a growing economy, JPMorgan Chase recently assigned a 35% probability to a recession. For investors seeking defense, Markoch highlighted three defensive stocks that could help portfolios weather a potential 2026 downturn.
Albemarle Corp. (NYSE: ALB) has risen with the price of lithium. Markoch explained why that trend is likely to continue in 2026, and why analysts are raising the bar for ALB.
Articles by Ryan Hasson
Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ: GOOGL) joined the $4 trillion market-cap club this week. Ryan Hasson explained why Alphabet's growth story may extend beyond its Apple deal and AI momentum.
The big banks lead earnings season early; next week it's the regional banks' turn. Hasson analyzed one of the regional bank sector's top ETFs and why the sector could be at a key inflection point that growth-oriented investors shouldn't ignore.
As the market broadens beyond just the tech sector, Hasson highlighted five growth stocks that could emerge from this rotation in 2026.
Articles by Leo Miller
This week, Leo Miller reminded investors that the semiconductor industry sits within a large global supply chain. With that context, Miller pointed to three of the best options for chip stocks from non-U.S. companies.
Broadcom Inc. (NASDAQ: AVGO) was one of 2025's top performers. Miller noted that several of Wall Street's biggest banks expect an encore performance for AVGO in 2026.
Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (NYSE: TSM) was another standout in 2025. Miller analyzed the company's latest report and why it sets the stage for continued growth in 2026.
Articles by Nathan Reiff
Nathan Reiff reminded readers that underfollowed stocks can pay off. These underfollowed names carry risk, but Reiff analyzed three that could deliver outsized returns for risk-tolerant investors.
One trend from 2025 is companies shifting from crypto-focused businesses toward data center and AI infrastructure. Galaxy Digital (NASDAQ: GLXY) is among them, and Reiff explained why keeping a toe in both worlds may be key to its growth in 2026.
D-Wave Quantum Inc. (NYSE: QBTS) announced a major acquisition this week that Reiff noted could help the company close the technology gap with gate-model competitors. Investors remain cautious, however, as commercial viability is likely years away.
Articles by Dan Schmidt
The relative strength index (RSI) is a common momentum metric for spotting oversold stocks. Dan Schmidt highlighted three names that are oversold by RSI yet have catalysts that could set the stage for a rebound in 2026.
Costco Wholesale Corp. (NASDAQ: COST) has been in a downtrend since early summer 2025. Schmidt argued the company's December sales figures may make it hard to justify further punishment and could present a buying opportunity.
Articles by Jeffrey Neal Johnson
NVIDIA continues to dominate the news cycle. This week, Jeffrey Neal Johnson suggested investors take a different tack. With NVIDIA announcing its new Rubin architecture, Johnson highlighted three stocks that could help make Rubin a reality and offer strong upside.
The Federal Reserve's decision to hold off on rate cuts may not derail the broader economy, but it could prompt a rotation from high-growth names into value. Johnson proposed a strategy using two ETFs that can help investors rebalance for 2026.
By now most investors know Apple chose Alphabet to power Apple Intelligence. Johnson explained why Apple made that decision and what it could mean for both companies' stocks.
Articles by Jordan Chussler
Many investors seek undervalued stocks with the potential for a 50% return in 2026. This week, Jordan Chussler highlighted a beaten-down SaaS company that may be poised for a meaningful rebound.
Healthcare stocks rallied strongly in late 2025. Chussler showed why the performance of a key sector ETF offers evidence that healthcare could continue to outperform in 2026.
Investing after an IPO carries risk, but there are recent success stories for retail investors. With that in mind, Chussler highlighted the opportunity around the recent IPO of Aktis Oncology (NASDAQ: AKTS).
