A nuclear innovator just hit all-time highs as policy winds shift, a quantum startup is gaining ground with room-temp tech, and a beaten-down chipmaker may be on the verge of a sharp reversal. Here’s what traders are watching this week.

When the market gets shaky, smart investors double down on clarity — not chaos.

Our newest research focuses on seven companies making quiet progress while the broader market adjusts to economic and global pressure.

From supply chain resilience to innovation in growth sectors, these stocks were chosen for a reason: they’re aligned with current macro trends that could shape the second half of the year.

You won’t hear about them on TV.

But you can be early, informed, and confident in where things may be headed.

IonQ

Ticker: IONQ | Market Cap: $12.8B | Catalyst: Room-Temperature Quantum Leap

While most of the quantum hype flows toward mega-cap experiments, IonQ is building in a different lane, and it’s getting noticed. Unlike its peers, which use superconducting qubits that require near-zero temperatures, IonQ’s trapped-ion method works at room temperature, reducing cost and complexity.

More importantly, it enables all-to-all qubit interaction, a major advantage in reducing error rates. That gives IonQ an edge as governments and corporations explore practical use cases for quantum acceleration.

It’s still in the early stages, with a high-risk, high-reward profile. However, with a 600%+ run from 2023 lows and growing enterprise visibility, the story is starting to take shape.

This is the only pure-play quantum player with a potentially scalable architecture. If it lands even a mid-tier commercial deployment this year, it could double from here.

You don’t need to chase trends — you just need the right list.

NuScale Power

Ticker: SMR | Total Assets: $14.5B | Catalyst: Nuclear Policy Momentum + All-Time High Breakout

NuScale is no longer the best-kept secret in the energy industry. The SMR leader soared past $50 this week, capping a monster 380% gain over the past year. The company has zero debt, nearly half a billion in cash, and, crucially, the only near-term deployable design approved by U.S. nuclear regulators.

Its reactors are smaller, safer, and factory-built, making them cheaper and faster to deploy, a major advantage in a world scrambling for carbon-free baseload power. New research initiatives on hydrogen and water desalination are widening their potential impact.

The narrative has shifted from “future of energy” to “ready now.” With Washington warming to nuclear and tax credits extended to 2036, SMR is becoming the next climate trade. Pullbacks may be brief and shallow.

ON Semiconductor

Ticker: ON | Market Cap: $23.2B | Catalyst: EV Inverter Deal + Margin Rebound Setup

ON Semiconductor just locked in a major win with Schaeffler, supplying silicon carbide chips for a next-gen hybrid EV platform. Its EliteSiC tech offers lower conduction losses and smaller form factors, key benefits as automakers seek longer range and higher performance.

Despite the contract win, shares are down ~10% YTD, as investors worry about cyclicality and pricing. But fundamentals are stabilizing. Gross margins sit near 40%, and analysts have begun revising price targets upward in anticipation of a margin recovery.

This is a misunderstood growth story with a real catalyst. If ON delivers on its gross margin next quarter, or even confirms its trajectory, this stock could quickly move toward $70.

Under Armour

Ticker: UAA | Market Cap: $3B | Catalyst: Repositioning + Deep Value Setup

UAA has been left behind in the consumer rebound, down 11% YTD and trading ~40% off its highs. However, beneath the surface, there are signs of stabilization, including a fair valuation, improved analyst sentiment, and a historically high-beta setup that responds quickly to earnings.

The company has room to surprise on even modest results. Inventory is under control, margins are rebounding, and macro tailwinds could lift consumer names in Q3, especially if inflation stays tame and back-to-school demand holds up.

No one wants to touch it, which makes it all the more interesting. If sentiment shifts just a bit, UAA could become a textbook bounce trade. Watch the next earnings for the turn.

Western Digital

Ticker: WDC | Market Cap: $24.1B | Catalyst: Buybacks, Data Center Growth, and Turnaround Execution

WDC is back in the conversation, and not just because of its 48% YTD gain. The company has just launched a $2 billion share repurchase program, initiated a dividend, and appointed a veteran CFO. Meanwhile, data center and hyperscale demand are driving revenue upside in nearline HDDs.

JPMorgan and BofA have both reaffirmed their bullish targets, and recent analyst meetings indicate optimism regarding product mix and profitability into 2026. This is a mature tech name transforming itself mid-cycle.

WDC is evolving. Between cost discipline, product momentum, and capital returns, this could quietly become one of the most shareholder-friendly stories in the chip-adjacent space.

You don’t need to chase the names everyone’s tweeting about. The edge this week lies in the overlooked, the niche chip deal, the quantum long-shot, the nuclear frontrunner, and the consumer name no one wants to touch (yet).

This is the pocket where breakout returns are born. Stay early. Stay sharp. Let’s get it.

That’s all for today. Thank you for reading. If you have any feedback, please reply to this email.
