Further Reading from MarketBeat.com MarketBeat Week in Review – 03/02 - 03/06By MarketBeat Staff. Article Published: 3/7/2026. War, rising oil prices, and a weak jobs report combined to drag stocks lower. All the major indexes fell for the week as uncertainty eroded investor confidence. While it's uncomfortable to see declines, U.S. equities are holding up reasonably well on a percentage basis, and earnings season has, on average, been solid. Markets are likely to remain volatile until investors get greater clarity about the duration and outcome of the conflict with Iran. Until then, headlines will drive price swings and volatility will persist. Next week brings three inflation reads: the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for February on Tuesday, the Producer Price Index (PPI) for February on Wednesday, and the delayed Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) index for January on Friday. A surprise in either direction could move stocks. Right now, as the conflict with Iran intensifies, there's one company quietly protecting every branch of the U.S. military.
Army. Navy. Air Force. Marines.
That company is Elon Musk's SpaceX. Click here and I'll show you exactly how. 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.
- Special Report: Gold is up. You're probably playing it wrong. (From True Market Insiders)
 Articles by Thomas Hughes Amprius Technologies Inc. (NYSE: AMPX) reported another strong quarter. Thomas Hughes, who has been bullish on AMPX for nearly a year, argued that the company's execution is driving revenue and earnings into a hypergrowth phase. Hughes also covered IonQ Inc. (NYSE: IONQ)'s solid earnings. The results reinforce the long-term quantum computing thesis, but the company remains far from profitability, which may make the risks outweigh the rewards for now. BigBear.ai Holdings Inc. (NYSE: BBAI) remains a favorite of speculative investors. Shares have been pressured by dilution, debt, and high short interest, but Hughes noted that after mixed earnings, institutional buyers may be quietly rewarding a stronger balance sheet. Articles by Sam Quirke March 9 is a critical date for Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ: TSLA). Sam Quirke explained that'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 will help determine whether investors are willing to pay the "autonomy premium" for TSLA stock. Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ: AMZN) shares fell after the company announced aggressive capital expenditures in its last report. Quirke highlighted the key metric that could spark a rebound as pronounced as the selloff. Quirke also noted that sometimes the best deals are the ones you don't make — seemingly the case with Netflix Inc. (NASDAQ: NFLX). The stock has rallied since the streaming giant walked away from its bid for Warner Bros. Discovery Inc. (NASDAQ: WBD). Articles by Chris Markoch Shares of Wendy's (NASDAQ: WEN) remain under pressure despite a double beat. Chris Markoch analyzed the report and explained that while there are reasons to view the stock as a value trap, the high-yield dividend is hard for income investors to ignore. Defense stocks rose amid expectations of increased defense spending tied to operations against Iran. One standout 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 sector before reporting earnings, but Markoch noted the company is well-positioned for higher defense spending, which showed up in its forward revenue guidance. Articles by Ryan Hasson Interest in utilities stocks goes beyond sector rotation. Ryan Hasson explained that defensive utility companies have become part of the AI infrastructure trade, meaning they can be used to build wealth as well as protect it. The robotics trade is heating up as an extension of the AI buildout. This week, Hasson highlighted five companies that demonstrate how robotics will affect different sectors of the economy. Hasson also argued that the recent sell-off in Rocket Lab (NASDAQ: RKLB) may have created an opportunity for patient investors. While the delay of the initial Neutron launch disappointed, Hasson wrote that the correction appears overdone and buyers are stepping in. Articles by Nathan Reiff With many AI-themed funds available, choosing the right ETF can be confusing. Nathan Reiff examined three straightforward ETFs that target different themes within the AI industry. Staying with ETFs, Reiff also highlighted three unique ETFs launched in 2026. They may not suit every investor, but each takes a distinctive approach with potential for significant upside. Part of the sector-rotation trade favors companies that prove cash is king. This week, Reiff spotlighted three cash-rich stocks with strong cash-flow histories to support current and future growth. Articles by Dan Schmidt One surprising strong tech report came from Dell Technologies Inc. (NYSE: DELL). Dan Schmidt broke down the stellar results and why the company's AI-fueled rally may be only beginning. Tariff concerns continue to weigh on stocks, but Schmidt identified three companies that were materially affected by tariffs and could benefit as tariff pressures ease, especially regarding China. It's been a rough start to 2026 for software stocks, but Schmidt suggested the selling pressure may be waning. That could create opportunities in three under-the-radar software companies 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 "AI stocks." Jeffrey Neal Johnson explained where investors may be misreading the company's strategy, arguing that its large installed base and inventory advantage could help it outpace expectations. It was a tough week for Archer Aviation Inc. (NYSE: ACHR). The earnings report reminded investors how much capital is required to build a new sector, but Johnson noted the company is making progress on operational milestones that help clarify its path forward. Oil was a major story this week. Johnson recommended investors consider three large, rock-solid oil companies that are well positioned to weather volatility. Articles by Jordan Chussler Jordan Chussler analyzed the partnership announced between Uber Technologies Inc. (NYSE: UBER) and Joby Aviation Inc. (NYSE: JOBY). The payoff is distant, and Joby's profitability horizon remains far off, so analysts have a mixed reaction to JOBY stock. Berkshire Hathaway issued its first earnings report since Warren Buffett retired. Chussler reviewed the results covering Buffett's final quarter at the helm and explained what they indicate. AST SpaceMobile (NASDAQ: ASTS) is a volatile stock, but it bounced this week after reporting impressive revenue growth. Chussler noted that while revenue stole the headlines, the company's expanding client roster may be the real story.
