We love our bottoms-up scans here at All Star Charts. We tend to get really creative when making new universes as we want to be sure they will deliver us the best opportunities the market has to offer.

However, when it comes to this one, it couldn't be any simpler!

With the goal of finding more bullish setups, we have decided to expand one of our favorite scans and broaden our regular coverage of the largest US stocks.

Welcome to The Junior Hall of Famers.

This scan is composed of the next 150 largest stocks by market cap, those that come after the top 150 and are thus covered by the Hall of Famers universe. Many of these names will someday graduate and join our original Hall Of Famers list. The idea here is to catch these big trends as early on as possible.

There is no need to overcomplicate things. Market cap is a quality filter at the end of the day. It only grows if price is rising. That's good enough for us.

The bottom line is it is a bull market. We...

Welcome to The 2 to 100 Club.

In this scan, we look to identify the strongest growth stocks as they climb the market-cap ladder from small- to mid- to large- and, ultimately, to mega cap status (over $200B).

Once they graduate from small-cap to mid-cap status (over $2B), they come on our radar. Likewise, when they surpass the roughly $30B mark, they roll off our list.

But the scan doesn't just end there.

We only want to look at the strongest growth industries in the market, as that is typically where these potential 50-baggers come from.

Some of the best performers in recent decades – stocks like Priceline, Amazon, Netflix, Salesforce, and myriad others – would have been on this list at some point during their journey to becoming the market behemoths they are today.

When you look at the stocks in our table, you'll notice we're only focused on Technology and Growth industry groups such as Software, Semiconductors, Online...

I’m always thinking about where the next big winners will come from.

Who will be the secular leaders of tomorrow?

What will be the next mega trend?

Who has the scale and the reach to dominate an industry?

What are the big ecosystem plays of the future?

But, I’m not only thinking about the fundamentals. It has to be confirmed by the technicals.

I love a good growth story as much as anyone, but I’m not going to fly blind with it.

One thing I know about stocks like the Magnificent Seven is they didn’t get to their size by accident.

The best stocks consistently outperform the overall market. That's what makes them the best!

So, I’ve learned to look out for this kind of thing. I never want to miss these trends.

The...

More and more risk-on areas of the market are perking up with every passing day.

We’ve watched risk-appetite steal the show overseas in recent weeks, and now we’re seeing it stateside in US markets.

Small caps have outperformed off the April lows.

Speculative growth and ARK stocks have outperformed off the April lows.

Tech has led. Discretionary has led. Growth has led. High beta has led. 

All of this leadership boils down to the same thing.

Investors are embracing risk at an increasing rate. They want more exposure to the riskiest stocks and assets around the world, not less.

We just talked about this at our live event yesterday. We’re listening to the market and getting more aggressive on the long side.

Our International Hall of Famers list is composed of the 100 largest US-listed international stocks, or ADRs.

We've also sprinkled in some of the largest ADRs from countries that did not make the market cap cut. 

These stocks range from some well-known mega-cap multinationals such as Toyota Motor and Royal Dutch Shell to some large-cap global disruptors such as Sea Ltd and Shopify.

It's got all the big names and more–but only those that are based outside the US. You can find all the largest US stocks on our original Hall of Famers list.

The beauty of these scans is really in their simplicity.

We take the largest names each week and then apply technical filters in a way that the strongest stocks with the most momentum rise to the top.

Based on the market environment, we can also flip the scan on its head and filter for weakness.

Let's dive in and take a look at some of the most important...

Spec‑growth is alive and well, as more and more offensive names are taking center stage for the current rally.

We continue to find bullish themes in specific industry groups from cyber, to quantum computing, and space & exploration. 

Investors are reaching out on the risk spectrum, and we’re ready to ride these trends with them.

Nothing screams “risk-on” louder than small‑modular nukes feeding AI’s power appetite. 

I’ve been referring to this basket of stocks as the “new nuclears,” but they actually have some really cool science, not to mention- a secular trend, behind them.

Let’s dive in.

At the Index level, the Nuclear Energy ETF $NLR is shaping up and threatening to break out of a monster base. 

I somehow found myself in Bangkok presenting to a room full of traders for a CMT event a few years ago.

I remember thinking how much I wanted them to like me…

And worrying that they wouldn’t because I had nothing positive to say about their local markets.

The charts were just so bad. There was no way around it.

The Thai Baht and the SET Index had just completed fresh tops. These trends were undeniably lower.

And this was really the case for all the Southeast Asian countries we visited.

Malaysia, the Philippines, and Vietnam were in the middle of some nasty downtrends too.

I wish I had better news for everyone, but instead it felt like I was going from city to city announcing bear markets all over Asia.

I’ll never forget it. I literally felt bad. The people I met out there were trading these markets....

The greatest investor the world has ever seen announced his retirement this weekend. 

Warren Buffett delivered the news at the Berkshire Hathaway annual shareholders meeting on Saturday that he’ll be stepping down on January 1, 2026.

Naturally, this was the big story of the day. But all I keep hearing is that the stock is down 5% on the news.

You gotta be kidding me. 

JC and I have been joking for years that when this moment comes, you buy the dip. And now that it’s here, we’re doing it.

So, let’s tell the real story of Buffett and Berkshire shares these days.

What all the headlines aren’t telling you is that Buffett literally just went out on top in the most GOAT fashion. Let me explain…

Berkshire closed at fresh all-time highs Friday.

Only a handful of stocks in the S&P 500 could say the same.

The market just suffered a swift and steep drawdown. It's the worst of the entire cycle. A lot of stocks have been absolutely crushed. But not this one. 

Not only that, but BRK also recently made...

One of the things I do on Saturday mornings is catch up on the earnings stories and reactions I might have missed during the week.

And it’s actually a lot easier for me to do these days…

Over the past year, we’ve built an earnings engine complete with various internal scans and custom indicators.

We like to build the tools we need here at All Star Charts. It’s how we got our start many years ago. And it will always be a big part of our culture and success as a publisher.

So I’m proud to say we finally have everything investors need from an earnings standpoint.

And you can get it for free right now as we’ve launched a demo version of what we call the Beat Report. 

We’re tracking all the reports each quarter and identifying the names with the best earnings trends and momentum. We send a note each day detailing all the earnings-based movers and shakers. We break it all down for you and highlight the best stuff we find. 

But the way we do it is a bit non-traditional. No one else is doing this analysis in this way. 

We don’t care so...

Our Hall of Famers list is composed of the 150 largest US-based stocks.

These stocks range from the mega-cap growth behemoths like Apple and Microsoft – with market caps in excess of $2T – to some of the new-age large-cap disruptors such as Moderna, Square, and Snap.

It has all the big names and more.

It doesn’t include ADRs or any stock not domiciled in the US. But don’t worry; we developed a separate universe for that. Click here to check it out.

The Hall of Famers is simple.

We take our list of 150 names and then apply our technical filters so the strongest stocks with the most momentum rise to the top.

Let’s dive right in and check out what these big boys are up to.

Here’s this week’s list:

The evidence is becoming clearer and clearer by the day…

It’s time to be overweight US tech stocks again.

But, this can mean a lot of things.

For me, Amazon and Tesla are “tech.” The big communications stocks are definitely “tech.”

There is some “tech” sprinkled into just about every sector, you just have to find it.

As a general rule, if it trades like a tech stock, it’s probably a tech stock.

Anyways, these are the stocks I’m on the hunt for these days. 

I’m buying speculative growth names like AST SpaceMobile and Rigetti Computing.

I’m buying bitcoin and crypto-related plays like MicroStrategy and Mara.

I’m buying biotech stocks like Rythm and Soleno.
