The S&P 500 and the Nasdaq Composite declined 3.1% and 5.5%, respectively, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average climbed less than 0.1%.\nClosing out a five-month rally that started in November, stocks have recently struggled in apprehension of delay in rate cuts by the Fed. A recent string of hot inflation data, robust jobs data and geopolitical tensions in the Middle East meant that the central bank is not yet ready to commit to a timeline for cutting rates. During the week, Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell refrained from offering guidance on interest rate cuts, suggesting a preference for maintaining current policies for a longer period.\nMarket participants continue to keep a keen eye on the quarterly earnings numbers that are pouring in to get a better hang of the situation while waiting for the Fed to make a decisive policy move.\nRegardless of market conditions, we, here at Zacks, provide investors with unbiased guidance on how to beat the market. \nAs usual, Zacks Research guided investors over the past three months with its time-tested methodologies. Given the prevailing market uncertainty, you may want to look at our feats to prepare better for your next action.\nHere are some of our key achievements:\nGeneDx and Coinbase Surge Following Zacks Rank Upgrade\nShares of GeneDx Holdings Corp. WGS have gained 38.7% (versus the S&P 500’s 0.1% increase) since it was upgraded to a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy) on February 22.\nAnother stock, Coinbase Global, Inc. COIN, was upgraded to a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) on February 21 and has returned 21.8% (versus the S&P 500’s 0.3% increase) since then.\nZacks Rank, our short-term rating system, has earnings estimate revisions at its core. Empirical research shows a strong correlation between trends in earnings estimate revisions and near-term stock price movements. \nA hypothetical portfolio of Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) stocks returned +20.63% in 2023 vs. +24.83% for the S&P 500 index and +15% for the equal-weight S&P 500 index. The portfolio of Zacks Rank #1 stocks is an equal-weight portfolio, while the S&P 500 index is a market-cap-weighted index that has been notably distorted by the concentrated performance of mega-cap stocks in 2023.\nWe are not trying to cherry-pick here. But since this Zacks Model portfolio, consisting of Zacks Rank #1 stocks, is an equal-weight portfolio, the equal-weight S&P 500 index is the appropriate benchmark for comparison. Looked at this way, this portfolio has handily outperformed the index.\nThe Zacks Model Portfolio - consisting of Zacks Rank #1 stocks – has outperformed the S&P index by more than 13 percentage points since 1988 (Through January 1st, 2024, the Zacks # 1 Rank stocks generated an annualized return of +24.18% since 1988 vs. +10.88% for the S&P 500 index).You can see the complete list of today’s Zacks Rank #1 stocks here >>>\nCheck GeneDx’s historical EPS and Sales here>>>\nCheck Coinbase’s historical EPS and Sales here>>>\nImage Source: Zacks Investment Research\nZacks Recommendation Upgrades MediaAlpha and Criteo Higher  \nShares of MediaAlpha, Inc. MAX and Criteo S.A. CRTO have advanced 30.8% (versus the S&P 500’s 0.8% fall) and 10.3% (versus the S&P 500’s 0.9% fall), since their Zacks Recommendation was upgraded to Outperform on February 13 and February 12, respectively.\nWhile the Zacks Rank is our short-term rating system that is most effective over the one- to three-month holding horizon, the Zacks Recommendation aims to predict performance over the next 6 to 12 months. However, just like the Zacks Rank, the foundation for the Zacks Recommendation is trends in earnings estimate revisions.\nThe Zacks Recommendation classifies stocks into three groups — Outperform, Neutral and Underperform. While these recommendations are determined quantitatively, our analysts have the flexibility to override them for the 1100+ stocks they closely follow based on their better judgment of factors such as valuation, industry conditions and management effectiveness than the quantitative model.\nTo access our research reports with Zacks Recommendations for the 1100+ stocks we cover, click here>>>\nZacks Focus List Stocks Quanta Services, Virtu Financial Shoot Up\nShares of Quanta Services, Inc.

VIRT, which was added to the portfolio on July 31, 2023, has returned 22.2% over the past 12 weeks.
