Momentum stock ideas

US stocks have taken a modest haircut thus far in June. The S&P 500 is down about 3% since the all-time high hit at the outset of the month as memory-chip worries, higher energy prices, and rate hike fears have threatened this bull market.1

But stocks have been resilient in 2026. Market breadth has broadly remained strong and unrelenting corporate earnings growth has underpinned stocks. If you think stocks will heat back up this summer, here are 3 screens using momentum, value, growth, and income to consider.

Momentum and value stocks

Despite the volatile June, US stocks have had momentum since the March 30 year-to-date bottom and are up 7% in 2026 so far. The top performing sectors have been energy, tech, industrials, and real estate, and there are reasons to think stocks in those sectors, as well as others, may continue to have momentum into the second half of the year.

Notably, value stocks have had more momentum this year and are on pace to outperform growth stocks for the first time since 2022. And with stocks trading near record highs, value may remain an important factor to consider.

If you are looking for stocks with momentum as well as those that might offer attractive value, here are the top 10 results from the Fidelity.com Stock Screener featuring stocks that are up at least 16.8% year to date, have a positive P/E-to-growth (PEG) ratio of 1.76 and below, and a 90-day daily volume average of at least 317.69K, sorted by market cap, as of June 25, 2026:

  • Taiwan Semiconductor ()
  • Micron ()
  • Sandisk ()
  • GE Vernova ()
  • Royal Bank of Canada ()
  • Dell ()
  • Western Digital ()
  • Citigroup ()
  • Seagate Technology ()
  • Toronto-Dominion Bank ()

After you run a screen, you should evaluate the results and how they might impact your investment mix. For example, a consideration when adding individual stocks to your portfolio is concentration risk within a particular sector or industry. Most of these results are technology or financial services companies. You'd want to think about how adding any of these stocks might impact your overall investment mix and exposure to an individual sector.

Momentum and growth stocks

Of course, it’s been growth stocks—including the Magnificent 7—that have had the most momentum in recent years. That multiyear momentum has pushed valuations higher for many growth stocks. Some investors are closely eyeing this month’s slide that’s taken place predominantly among high-growth stocks for opportunities to go bargain hunting.

If you are looking for stocks with momentum that have also exhibited strong growth, here are the top 10 results from the Fidelity.com Stock Screener featuring stocks that are up at least 16.8% year to date with a 3-year cash flow growth rate of 26.34 and higher, a 3-to-5 year forward EPS long-term growth rate of 26.34 and higher, and a 90-day daily volume average of at least 317.69K, sorted by market cap, as of June 25, 2026:

  • GE Vernova ()
  • Marvell ()
  • Mitsubishi ()
  • Arista Networks ()
  • Amphenol ()
  • Vertiv ()
  • Howmet Aerospace ()
  • Datadog ()
  • Astera Labs ()
  • ASM International ()

When running any screen, evaluate if the results appear to be in line with what you might expect. If the output isn't generally what you expected and it doesn't align with your goals and risk tolerance, you may want to consider adjusting the filters or running a different screen.

Momentum and income stocks

Recent inflation data has proffered a strong reason why investors may be particularly interested in seeking out income-generating investments to help pay for or offset rising costs across the economy. And income-oriented investors might also be interested in stocks that have exhibited momentum.

If you are looking for stocks that have momentum as well as those that feature attractive income characteristics, here are the top 10 results from the Fidelity.com Stock Screener featuring stocks that are up at least 16.8% year to date, have a dividend yield of at least 3.27%, and a 90-day daily volume average of at least 317.69K, sorted by market cap, as of June 25, 2026:

  • HSBC ()
  • TotalEnergies ()
  • DBS Group ()
  • BNP Paribas ()
  • BNP Paribas ()
  • Rio Tinto ()
  • Altria ()
  • The Bank of Nova Scotia ()
  • Canadian Natural Resources ()
  • Equinor ASA ()

Note that most of the output of this specific screen produces international results. You’ll want to fully understand the unique characteristics and risks of foreign companies. You’ll want to ensure that opportunities like these are appropriate for your goals and risk tolerance.

Stock screen tips

Some screening criteria may be more relevant for certain sectors, industries, and companies. With experience, you can adjust filters to set up screens that produce the type of results you may be looking for. You can also look at preset expert screens if you’d like to see how filters can be set up.

Regardless of your screening approach, more research is needed to determine if any screen result is right for you. You should fully understand the risks involved, and each investing opportunity should be considered within the context of a well-diversified investment strategy that conforms to your specific time horizon, objectives, and risk parameters.

Stock markets are volatile and can fluctuate significantly in response to company, industry, political, regulatory, market, or economic developments. Investing in stock involves risks, including the loss of principal. Foreign markets can be more volatile than U.S. markets due to increased risks of adverse issuer, political, market, or economic developments, all of which are magnified in emerging markets. These risks are particularly significant for investments that focus on a single country or region. 1. All data in this article is sourced to FactSet, as of June 25, 2026. Indexes are unmanaged. It is not possible to invest directly in an index.

Growth stocks can perform differently from the market as a whole and other types of stocks, and can be more volatile than other types of stocks.

Value stocks can perform differently from other types of stocks, and can continue to be undervalued by the market for long periods of time.

Because of their narrow focus, sector funds tend to be more volatile than funds that diversify across many sectors and companies.

Diversification does not ensure a profit or guarantee against loss.
