5 Stocks with Recent Price Strength to Tap Wall Street Rally

U.S. stock markets closed sharply higher at a record-high level on Friday. Expectations of a U.S.-China trade deal and interest rate cuts in the second half of 2025 boosted market participants confidence in risky assets like equities.

On June 27, the S&P 500 closed at 6,173.07, marking a new closing high. In intraday trading, Wall Street's most observed benchmark posted a new all-time high of 6,187.68. The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite ended at 20,273.46. This was a new record-high closing for the index. In intraday trading, the tech-laden index also posted a new all-time high of 20,311.51. The blue-chip Dow finished at 43,819.27, falling 2.7% below its all-time high recorded on Dec 4, 2024.

Consequently, a handful of 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.

Five such stocks are — Sezzle Inc., RF Industries Ltd., Tutor Perini Corp., Limbach Holdings Inc. and Great Lakes Dredge & Dock Corp..

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.
