Trump's Stablecoin Just Hit $3.3 billion
Dear Investor,
While everyone argues about Bitcoin's price... the Trump family quietly built a stablecoin that hit $3.3 billion in circulation.
That's larger than PayPal's stablecoin by some metrics. And it happened in barely a year.
USD1 isn't just a token. It's the foundation of an entire ecosystem the Trump family is constructing…
A federally chartered crypto bank. Compliance built around the GENIUS Act they pushed into law. Institutional partnerships with major exchanges and foreign capital.
This is the infrastructure layer for the next wave of institutional crypto adoption.
And there's one specific coin that powers the ecosystem being built around it. Think early Uniswap... but for a system backed by the President of the United States and designed to funnel trillions into crypto.
Smart money is already accumulating. Volume is hitting record highs. Market cap is still under $2 billion.
With the Iran situation potentially winding down and Trump pushing for rate cuts under his new Fed chair... the catalysts are stacking up fast.
Get my #1 coin for the Trump presidency bull run before the crowd catches on.
To your massive success,
Bryce Paul

MarketBeat Week in Review – 03/02 - 03/06
Submitted by MarketBeat Staff. Published: 3/7/2026.
War, rising oil prices and a weak jobs report dragged stocks lower. All major indexes fell for the week as uncertainty eroded investor confidence. It's uncomfortable to see declines, but U.S. stocks have held up reasonably well relative to history, and earnings season has generally been strong.
Markets will likely remain volatile until investors gain clarity on the duration and outcome of the conflict with Iran. Until then, headlines will drive moves and volatility is likely to persist.
Next week investors get 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 markets.

Articles by Thomas Hughes
Amprius Technologies Inc. (NYSE: AMPX) posted another strong quarter. Thomas Hughes has been bullish on AMPX for nearly a year; in this week's piece he argues the company's strategy execution is paying off, with revenue and earnings entering a hypergrowth phase through improved execution and expanding demand.
Hughes also covered IonQ Inc. (NYSE: IONQ)'s solid earnings. The report supports the long-term quantum computing thesis, but the company remains far from profitability, which may mean risks currently outweigh rewards.
BigBear.ai Holdings Inc. (NYSE: BBAI) is a favorite target of speculative investors. The stock has been held back by share dilution, debt and high short interest. After a mixed earnings report, Hughes noted institutional investors may be quietly rewarding an improving balance sheet.
Articles by Sam Quirke
March 9 will be a critical date for Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ: TSLA) and its stock. 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 the company provides will determine whether investors are willing to pay the "autonomy premium" for TSLA.
Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ: AMZN) shares fell sharply after the company announced aggressive capital expenditures in its last report. Quirke highlighted one key metric that could trigger a rebound as strong as the selloff.
Quirke also reminded readers that sometimes the best deals are the ones you don't make. That appears to be the case with Netflix Inc. (NASDAQ: NFLX), which has rallied since the streaming giant walked away from its bid to acquire 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 broke down 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.
Many defense stocks were stronger this week amid expectations of increased defense spending tied to operations related to Iran. One notable winner was Palantir Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: PLTR), which jumped nearly 15% for the week. Markoch explained why the move wasn't driven solely 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—a point reflected in its forward revenue projections.
Articles by Ryan Hasson
Interest in utilities stocks is about more than sector rotation. Ryan Hasson explained that defensive utility companies have become part of the AI infrastructure trade, so owning these names can be about building wealth as much as protecting it.
The robotics trade is heating up as an adjacent extension of the AI buildout. This week Hasson spotlighted five companies that show how robotics will affect different sectors of the economy.
Hasson also argued the recent sell-off in Rocket Lab (NASDAQ: RKLB) may be creating an opportunity for patient investors. The delay of its initial Neutron launch was disappointing, but he noted the correction looks overdone and buyers appear to be stepping in.
Articles by Nathan Reiff
When it comes to investing in AI-themed funds, investors face many choices but little clarity. Nathan Reiff analyzed three straightforward ETFs that focus on various themes in the AI industry.
Sticking with ETFs, Reiff highlighted three unique ETFs that 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 has investors favoring companies that prove cash is king. This week, Reiff highlighted three cash-rich stocks with strong cash-flow histories to fuel current and future growth.
Articles by Dan Schmidt
One of the standout technology earnings reports came from an unlikely name. Dan Schmidt broke down the stellar results from Dell Technologies Inc. (NYSE: DELL) and why the company's AI-fueled rally may be just getting started.
Tariff talk continues to hang over stocks. Schmidt highlighted three companies that were materially impacted by tariffs but could see relief if tariff pressures—particularly with China—ease.
It's been a rough start to 2026 for software stocks, but Schmidt noted the bears may be running out of sellers. That could create opportunities in the three under-the-radar software stocks that can integrate AI into their popular platforms.
Articles by Jeffrey Neal Johnson
Super Micro Computer Inc. (NASDAQ: SMCI) has been sold off along with many "AI stocks" this year. Jeffrey Neal Johnson explained where investors may be misunderstanding the company's strategy and why its massive installed base and inventory advantage could help it outperform expectations.
It's been a tough week for Archer Aviation Inc. (NYSE: ACHR). The earnings report reminded investors of how much cash it takes to build a sector from the ground up. Still, Johnson noted the company is making real progress on operational milestones that clarify and strengthen its outlook.
Oil was one of the biggest stories of the week, and Johnson argued that when navigating the current chaos, bigger is often better. He pointed to three rock-solid oil companies positioned to thrive in volatile markets.
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 far in the future—and so is Joby's path to profitability—so analysts have a mixed reaction about JOBY stock.
Berkshire Hathaway issued its first earnings report since Warren Buffett retired, covering Buffett's final quarter at the helm. Chussler explained what the report revealed about the company's performance and direction.
AST SpaceMobile (NASDAQ: ASTS) is a volatile name, but shareholders saw a strong bounce this week after the company reported impressive revenue growth. That headline grabbed attention, but Chussler noted the company's growing client roster may be the real story.
Ollie's Stock Won't Stay a Bargain Much Longer
By Thomas Hughes. First Published: 3/15/2026.
Key Points
- Ollie's Bargain Outlet posted strong revenue growth in Q4 despite slim misses on earnings and guidance, with both comp-store sales and store expansion outpacing expectations.
- The Big Lots bankruptcy is creating a customer conversion opportunity that analysts believe has years left to play out—and isn't yet reflected in the stock price.
- Institutional investors own nearly all of the float and have been steady buyers, backing a company that funds its own growth and trades below every analyst's target.

Ollie’s Bargain Outlet's (NASDAQ: OLLI) downtrend appears to be over. The Q4 2025 results are in and reaffirm a robust outlook. Although results and guidance were slightly below consensus, the misses were small, growth and outlook remain strong, and the weakness wasn’t as unexpected as some had suggested.
Analysts at RBC issued cautious commentary ahead of the release while emphasizing the company’s attractive positioning, aggressive expansion, and potential to outperform in coming years. In their view, the fallout from the Big Lots bankruptcy and subsequent customer conversion to Ollie’s is a multi-year event that has yet to fully play out and is not fully priced into the stock.
Ollie’s Outperforms Peers as Expansion Takes Hold
Have $500? Invest in Elon's AI Masterplan (Ad)
What if you could claim a stake in what's set to be the biggest IPO ever… starting with just $500?
Everyone is talking about Elon Musk's SpaceX IPO.
Click here to get the details and I'll show you how to claim your stake…Ollie’s delivered a strong quarter despite revenue coming in slightly below the consensus estimate. Net revenue of $779.26 million was up 16.8% year over year—well ahead of many competitors—driven by better-than-expected comparable-store sales and store-count growth. Comparable-store sales rose 3.6%, a touch above RBC’s forecast, while store count increased 15.4%.
Margins were solid even though they missed expectations, as spending control and revenue leverage offset store-opening expenses. Adjusted EPS missed consensus by $0.02, but the shortfall was modest and earnings growth slightly outpaced revenue growth. Store-opening costs are expected to normalize, which should improve margin and earnings quality over the next two to three years.
Guidance was slightly below MarketBeat’s reported consensus but still implies healthy growth. The company expects revenue of $2.985 billion to $3.013 billion (a midpoint just under the $3.0 billion consensus) and an EPS midpoint of $4.45 versus the $4.53 consensus. The revenue midpoint implies roughly 10% top-line growth year over year.
Ollie’s Cautious Guidance Sets Stage for Bullish Revision Cycle
Cautious guidance can create opportunity. Last year’s 15.4% store-count growth is still being digested, and the company plans to add another 11.6% in stores this year. Other potential tailwinds include seasonal consumer strength tied to tax season, and management reported average transaction size is more than 10% larger than a year earlier—adding liquidity to Ollie’s customer base. If business trends outperform conservative guidance, the company could raise guidance during the year, prompting analysts to follow with upward revisions.
Ollie’s currently carries a Moderate Buy consensus rating with no Sell ratings among the 16 analysts tracked by MarketBeat. No immediate rating revisions were issued after the Q4 release, but several analysts highlighted growth potential and strength in loyalty members (up 12.1%), while noting concerns about tougher future comparisons. Not everyone is convinced about the long-term upside from the Big Lots conversion, but the analyst group remains bullish on the stock, forecasting an average upside of roughly 30%. In early March, OLLI traded below the low end of the analysts' range, underscoring a deep-value opportunity and potential for a rebound.
Institutional ownership reveals another angle: institutions own nearly 100% of the float and tend to buy on a quarterly basis. Their reasons for ownership include a strong balance sheet, self-funded growth, favorable cash flow, and an attractive growth outlook—along with potential for capital returns.
The company does not pay a dividend, choosing instead to reinvest profits, but it repurchases shares in amounts sufficient to offset dilution. The decline in share count has been gradual but steady, providing a foundation for future per-share gains. Competitors and industry leaders such as TJX Companies (NYSE: TJX) are known for dividends and buybacks; Ollie’s appears to be evolving in that direction.
Ollie’s Stock Price Bounces From Rock Bottom
Ollie’s stock hit a low late in 2025, rebounded, and retested that level again in early 2026. After the guidance update, shares rose more than 5%, confirming support at that critical level. That price zone was a resistance target since 2019 that broke in early 2025 and now appears to be acting as a new, durable support. The likely outcome is continued progress through 2026, with the potential for accelerating gains as the year unfolds.
