Trends are a big part of what Wall Street is all about. And, just like fashion trends, they tend to repeat. Stocks that were once all the rage fade over time as new opportunities arise. But just as the market rises and falls in a cyclical pattern, so do good companies’ popularity.

A Best-in-Breed Company and Consumer Favorite

Starbucks Corporation (SBUX) is a $128 billion niche restaurant chain company primarily known for its premium coffee selection. It’s the largest coffeehouse chain in the world, with over 30,000 locations in more than 70 counties.

After the markets traded relatively flat for most of February, a rally pushed the Dow Jones Industrial Index to an all-time high on February 24, 2021. The markets gave back the gains after the tech sector dragged down the market towards the latter part of the month.

However, investors are marching into March with optimism as another stimulus pushes forward, an alternative vaccine receives emergency authorization, and Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen encourages more government actions to stimulate the economy.

As we move into March, these five stocks are topping our list as strong-trending movers:

1. ETSY, Inc. (ETSY)
2. Host Hotels & Resorts, Inc. (HST)
3. Halliburton Company (HAL)
4. UnitedHealth Group Incorporated (UNH)​
5. The Boeing Company (BA)​

Etsy, Inc. (ETSY) Etsy, Inc is an online marketplace for handmade and vintage items in the U.S., Canada, Australia, France, and Germany. The company provides a number of seller services like inventory management, payment processing, and marketing. In February of 2021, Needham, Roth Capital, Goldman Sachs, and Canaccord Genuity all reiterated a “buy” rating for ETSY. (Click here for a FREE analysis of ETSY and be sure to notice the intermediate time frame).

MarketClub members following the long-term Trade Triangles would still be holding a long position established on April 20, 2020, at $63.24. Since that signal, ETSY is up more than 200%.
