📈 PREMARKET WATCHLIST – August 13, 2026

Published on: August 12, 2026

Market Overview

U.S. equities closed modestly higher on August 12 after July CPI matched expectations, easing rate-hike concerns and fueling an AI-driven tech rally that spilled into after-hours. Small-cap and micro-cap names dominated AH gainers with heavy volume on earnings beats and biotech/AI updates, setting up gap-and-go potential for Thursday’s open.

Overnight futures are quiet while Asia mixed; focus remains on continuation of the earnings-driven momentum in sub-$25 names with elevated RVOL and clean floats under 20M.
