🚀 Wall Street Radar: Stocks to Watch Next Week
💼 Volume 83
The April Rally That Left No Room
For those expecting a pullback, it was another relentlessly bullish week.
Instead of the pause many were waiting for, the market continued to push higher with very little friction. What we’re seeing increasingly resembles a classic lockout rally, the kind that leaves participants underexposed and struggling to find rational entry points.
These phases are rare, but not unprecedented.
Historically, similar environments have occurred during periods of extreme momentum, particularly in tech-heavy indices like the Nasdaq. There have been instances where the Nasdaq advanced close to 20% in the span of a single month, with only minimal retracements along the way. During those stretches, dips were shallow, short-lived, and often bought immediately, effectively locking out anyone waiting for cleaner setups.
That’s what makes this type of market so challenging.
When price moves in a near-linear fashion, without building structure or offering consolidation, it disrupts the natural rhythm most systematic approaches rely on. There’s no real opportunity to size properly without accepting elevated risk.
From a portfolio management standpoint, it becomes a difficult trade-off.
The trading week has been fairly intense by our standards.
Three positions were closed, two new ones were initiated, and we significantly reduced what ended up being the main contributor to this week’s performance: Arm Holdings plc (ARM).
We are currently holding roughly 25% of the original position. We scaled out in three tranches, each representing 25% of the initial size, capturing gains of 11%, 17%, and 47% over just 11 trading days.
An exceptional outcome.
Probably one of the cleanest executions we’ve had in recent months. The position sizing was right from the start, the risk was well defined, and the broader market provided the tailwind. The theme was aligned with current narratives around CPU constraints, and the sector, semiconductors, was clearly in a position of strength.
When all those elements come together, the result can be powerful.
That said, we’re now leaning more defensive.
Not because we have a strong directional view, but because the market is showing signs of needing a pause. Extensions across the semiconductor space, in particular, are becoming difficult to justify from a sustainability standpoint.
Our system is currently flagging what we define as a maximum overextension signal across the sector. Historically, when this condition appears, a pullback tends to follow within three to five trading sessions.
It’s not guaranteed, but it’s consistent enough to demand respect.
Which brings us back to the same principle.
We don’t predict. We position.
And right now, patience remains the most rational trade.

CRCL: Circle Internet Group Inc ⚠️
What they do: A financial technology company that issues and manages USDC
Why watch? Circle’s business model is refreshingly straightforward in an industry often characterized by complexity. The company takes real U.S. dollars, converts them into digital tokens called stablecoins (USDC being their flagship product), and parks the underlying cash in Treasury Bills. The interest earned on those T-bills is Circle’s primary revenue stream. Think of it as a money market fund with a digital wrapper: simple, transparent, and highly dependent on interest rates.
The distribution side of the equation matters too. Circle relies on crypto exchanges and other platforms to put USDC in front of users, and those distributors receive a share of the interest income as compensation. Profitability, therefore, comes down to whether the interest earned exceeds both distribution costs and operating overhead.
The elephant in the room is Tether, the global leader in dollar-pegged stablecoins. The key distinction between the two competitors is philosophical: Circle has built its entire brand around regulatory compliance and transparency, while Tether only recently announced plans to have its reserves independently audited. For years, questions have lingered about whether Tether actually holds the Treasury Bills it claims to back its tokens. Circle’s USDC carries a meaningfully lower risk of losing its dollar peg precisely because of this commitment to verifiable reserves, a distinction that matters enormously to institutional investors and regulators.
Two structural growth catalysts deserve attention. The first is asset tokenization: the process of representing real-world assets like real estate, bonds, or equities as digital tokens on a blockchain. Industry estimates put the eventual size of this market in the trillions of dollars, and stablecoins would serve as the settlement currency for these transactions, dramatically expanding demand for USDC. The second catalyst is the rise of agentic AI. Autonomous AI systems that execute financial transactions on behalf of users would naturally gravitate toward smart contracts, which settle instantly and programmatically. Stablecoins are the native currency of that ecosystem, and Circle sits at the center of it.
Technical Outlook: The stock has given back most of its gains from the earnings-driven surge earlier this year, but has found consistent support at the $85.00 level on multiple occasions, a clear line in the sand that also coincides with the 50-day simple moving average. For a stock with an 8% average daily range, the most recent session’s move of just 0.38% is remarkable compression. That kind of stillness in a volatile name typically precedes a meaningful directional move. The risk-reward in this handle formation is attractive, and the setup becomes actionable on a convincing break above the $100 to $102 range on elevated volume. If the broader market stabilizes and the stablecoin narrative continues to develop favorably, this could be one of the more important themes of the next several months.
