4 Stocks with Recent Price Strength to Maximize Your Gains

U.S. stock markets have continued their northward journey in 2025 following an impressive rally over the past two years. A weak labor market has raised expectations that the Fed will continue to reduce the benchmark lending rate during the rest of 2025.

However, the recent shutdown of the U.S. government and consequent delay of the release of several key economic data may drag down investors' enthusiasm. Moreover, trade and tariff-related serious conflicts between the United States and its major trading partner, China, dented market participants' sentiments.

Consequently, a few stocks have shown price strength. We have primarily targeted stocks that have recently been on a bull run. Such stocks have a high chance of carrying the momentum forward.

Four such stocks are — Flux Power Holdings Inc., Aura Minerals Inc., Arcturus Therapeutics Holdings Inc. and Sterling Infrastructure Inc..

If a stock is continuously witnessing an uptrend, there must be a solid reason or it would have probably crashed. So, looking at stocks capable of beating the benchmark that they have set for themselves seems rational.

However, recent price strength alone cannot create magic. Therefore, other relevant parameters are needed to create a successful investment strategy.

Here's how you should create the screen to shortlist the current as well as the potential winners.
