Top 10 Stocks to Watch: June 2026

Market Update: S&P 500 E-Mini Futures up 10.5% year-to-date

The S&P 500 has posted nine straight green bars over the last nine trading days. Today marks the ninth attempt. Looking at the bigger picture, price action has rallied since March 31^st.  

Mid-May saw a slight pull back, but that move was quickly bought up, and we rallied to new all-time highs, putting us in the position we are now. 

Although trader sentiment seems to want a correction from this 1,250 plus point rally, the status quo has continued to remain bullish. That said, we are looking for buyer exhaustion. We are looking for price action to indicate that buyers are becoming timid and more reluctant to continue buying. Once that happens, price action will begin to develop a sideways orientation. 

If the market develops a sideways stance over the next few weeks, look for sellers to target the $7,500 level followed by the $7,300 level. That said, it’s entirely possible that we see a small pullback followed by a continuation of the rally to new all-time highs. 

A note on earnings trades

To capture the bulk of the volatility of earnings announcements, earnings trades are often executed either the day before or on the day of the earnings announcement. However, earnings trades can also be placed days or weeks before an earnings event, which could lead to early profit taking.  

Alternatively, placing a trade shortly after an earnings announcement can be a strategic choice to circumvent the binary nature of the event. Evaluate each trade in a way that allows you to execute the position that matches your strategy.   

If you're considering a trade going into an earnings event, one approach is to initiate the position in the monthly options contract that follows the earnings event. This strategy offers flexibility. Should you need to defend your position – perhaps due to unexpected market movements – you have the choice to 'roll' it out to the subsequent monthly options. Rolling out the position in this way allows you to extend its duration and potentially collect more premium, providing a buffer against market volatility.
