Weekly Market Outlook 1/25/26
The next theme I expect to get a big government investment, how to capitalize on the Greenland trade, and more.
This past week saw the first big volatility event of 2026.
The Trump administration threatened Europe with tariffs in their pursuit of Greenland which led to a market wide selloff, but it didn’t last very long.
A few days later, Trump announced that he was not going to implement tariffs on Europe and also was not going to try try and take Greenland with force. This led to a broad rally and recovery in the market.
In my view, this is not the end of the push for Greenland. Whether the U.S. takes Greenland outright or comes to a less invasive deal, it seems very likely that the U.S. will have a presence in Greenland one way or another. There is likely a big way to capitalize on that, but more on that later.
I want to highlight and mention that my 2026 Market Outlook was published last weekend, I’ll link it here. In this article I discuss how I’m thinking about the market and indices heading into the new year, my top individual stock and trade ideas for 2026, the themes I’m focused on and the specific names within them including thematic baskets you can own or trade, macro and micro analysis, key index levels, crypto, sector and industry breakdowns, international stocks, and more. It’s a big piece, but I think it’s well worth the read. I put my all into this outlook to help you prepare for the upcoming year, and I hope you find it useful.
In the remainder of this article I’m going to discuss which sector I think is next in line for meaningful government investment like we’ve seen with rare earths, the three names that appear best positioned to get that investment, two stocks a legendary investor who correctly called the memory surge is heavily invested in that have yet to run, an under discussed energy stock with major tailwinds that the Trump family is personally invested in, a clean way to play the Greenland thesis, Intel earnings, my favorite charts and setups heading into the week ahead, the broader market, and more.
