5 Stocks with Recent Price Strength Amid Wall Street Volatility
U.S. stock markets started 2026 on a positive note. While, volatility has reappeared on Wall Street, it is predominantly due to market participants’ concerns about the continuity of AI (artificial intelligence) trade.
Extremely overstretched valuation of AI stocks, the sustainability of massive AI spending by companies and serious doubt about the timing of monetization of this enormous spending resulted in a stiff decline of the technology sector.
Consequently, a handful of stocks have shown price strength. We have primarily targeted stocks that have recently been on a bull run. These stocks have a high chance of carrying the momentum forward.
Five such stocks are — Modine Manufacturing Co., Gold.com Inc., Flexsteel Industries Inc., Seanergy Maritime Holdings Corp. and Forum Energy Technologies Inc.
If a stock is continuously witnessing an uptrend, there must be a solid reason or it would have probably crashed. So, looking at stocks capable of beating the benchmark that they have set for themselves seems rational.
However, recent price strength alone cannot create magic. Therefore, other relevant parameters are needed to create a successful investment strategy.
Here’s how you should create the screen to shortlist the current as well as the potential winners.
