📈 INTRADAY WATCHLIST – August 13, 2026

Published on: August 13, 2026

Market Overview

US equity futures edged higher Thursday as traders digested softer oil prices and awaited the Producer Price Index release for fresh clues on inflation and the Fed path. Major averages showed modest gains in early trade while AI infrastructure names mixed after mixed earnings reactions. Small-cap and micro-cap momentum remained elevated with several high-relative-volume breakouts driven by M&A, earnings beats, and sector-specific catalysts.

Risk appetite stayed constructive for names under $25 with elevated RVOL and clear catalysts, though volatility remains elevated amid ongoing rate uncertainty and selective dilution risks in the micro-cap space.
