The same morning, picked by the data
No news read: S&P 500 stocks matching setups tested on ten years of gap days, pre-market to 8:55 AM ET.
Picked by rules, not news: the setups were tested on every S&P 500 stock that opened 2% or more from the day before since 2016, and are read from pre-market prices at 8:55 AM ET. These stocks fell 2–6% before the open, at least 1.5 points more than the market, after a down day and without earnings news. The S&P 500 ETF was +0.16% at 8:55 AM ET. Since 2016 such stocks closed above their opening price 53% of the time and rose at least 1% above it 72% of the time; held from the open to the close they about broke even after costs (−0.04% a day in 2016–2022, 0.00% in 2023–2026).
4 of 4 are above their opening price; on average +0.50% from the open so far (S&P 500 ETF: +0.46%).
| # | Stock | Setup | At 8:55 AM | To the high | To the close | +1%? |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | DVN Devon Energy | Rebound | −2.30% | +1.21%at 9:36 AM | +0.20% | Reached |
| 2 | VLO Valero Energy | Rebound | −2.07% | +1.96%at 9:36 AM | +0.77% | Reached |

Rebound
Down 2–6% before the open, at least 1.5 points more than the S&P 500 ETF, after a down day, no earnings.
On S&P 500 gap days since 2016 (3,150 picks on 1,223 days): closed above the open 53% of the time, rose at least 1% above it 72% and 2% 50%; held from the open to the close, −0.04% a day in 2016–2022 and 0.00% in 2023–2026 after costs.
03
Why each stock could go up
S&P 500 futures are up 0.2% and Nasdaq-100 futures up 0.8% at about 9:13 AM ET as chip stocks rebound, while Dow futures are down 0.2% on Apple's slide and oil is down 2% to 3% on hopes for U.S.-Iran talks. Midterm results arrive only after the close, so we expect company news to drive these picks more than the election.

Revvity (RVTY)
Health care · +7% to +8.8% pre-market
+2% target
60% confidence
EarningsRevvity rises 7% after raising full-year adjusted EPS guidance to $5.40-$5.45 from $5.30-$5.40 — CNBC
Revvity earned an adjusted $1.37 a share in the third quarter against a $1.30 consensus, on revenue of $729 million versus about $695 million expected, and raised its full-year adjusted EPS forecast to $5.40-$5.45 from $5.30-$5.40. A beat with raised guidance is the strongest same-day driver, and a 7% to 9% gap is large but below the 10% level where fades are most common. We estimate a further 2% rise above the open is likely at some point today.
Risk: Life-science tools stocks often give back part of an earnings gap in the first hour as early buyers take profits.

Advanced Micro Devices (AMD)
Technology · +3% pre-market
+1.5% target
60% confidence
SectorChip stocks bounce before the bell, AMD up more than 3% ahead of its third-quarter results after the close — CNBC
AMD is up more than 3% before the bell as chip stocks rebound, with Nasdaq-100 futures up 0.8%, and it reports third-quarter results after today's close. Stocks often keep rising into a closely watched report, and AMD regularly trades 2% or more above its open in a day. We estimate a 1.5% rise from the open is more likely than not.
Risk: Traders may sell before tonight's report, especially after Intel's weak outlook last week.

Micron Technology (MU)
Technology · +4% pre-market
+2% target
58% confidence
SectorMicron up almost 4% as chip stocks lift index futures on Election Day — CNBC
Micron is up almost 4% before the open, leading a rebound in chip stocks after recent pressure on AI-related names, with Nvidia and Broadcom up about 2%. Micron is one of the most volatile large chip stocks, so a 2% rise above the open is well within a normal day's range if the rebound holds.
Risk: A rebound driven by bargain hunting can reverse quickly if worries about AI spending return.

Bloom Energy (BE)
Industrials · No confirmed pre-market move at publication
+3% target
55% confidence
UpgradeBarclays upgrades Bloom Energy to Overweight from Equal Weight — CNBC
Barclays raised Bloom Energy to Overweight from Equal Weight, citing an accelerating capacity build, rising customer deposits and new supply commitments that suggest demand is ramping faster than it expected. Bloom Energy often moves 5% or more in a day, so a 3% rise above the open needs only modest follow-through on the upgrade.
Risk: Barclays cut its price target to $289 from $316, and the stock's large swings cut both ways.
From $210.33 at 9:30 AM:high +4.84% at 10:19 AMclose +2.95%day +10.33% Reached +3% - 5
Cloudflare (NET)

+2% target
55% confidence
UpgradeJPMorgan upgrades Cloudflare to Overweight from Neutral, calling the pullback a buy-the-dip opportunity — CNBC
JPMorgan upgraded Cloudflare to Overweight from Neutral, saying the roughly 20% drop over the past month has lowered the valuation premium to a more attractive entry point. A major-bank upgrade after a sharp pullback, on a morning when Nasdaq-100 futures are up 0.8%, gives a good chance of a 2% rise from the open.
Risk: Software stocks have been weak, and one upgrade may not be enough to end the slide.

Aehr Test Systems (AEHR)
Technology · +15.5% in early pre-market trading (5 AM ET)
+3% target
50% confidence
EarningsAehr Test Systems posts record quarterly revenue of $33 million and raises its fiscal 2027 revenue outlook — Stocktwits
Aehr Test Systems reported record fiscal first-quarter revenue of $33 million, up 200% from a year earlier, a $109.3 million backlog, and a raised fiscal 2027 revenue outlook. Small chip-equipment stocks with a surprise this large often swing widely during the session, so a 3% push above the open is plausible.
Risk: Stocks up more than 10% before the open often give part of the gain back, which is why our confidence is lower.
From $57.14 at 9:30 AM:high +15.24% at 10:43 AMclose +12.40%day +24.78% Reached +3% - 7
DuPont (DD)
Materials · +2% to +3.3% pre-market
+1.2% target
52% confidence
GuidanceDuPont lifts full-year profit forecasts as healthcare, aerospace demand fuels earnings beat — Reuters
DuPont earned an adjusted $2.09 a share against a $1.87 estimate and raised its full-year adjusted EPS forecast to $7.47-$7.52 from $7.17-$7.32. A steady industrial name with a clear beat and raise often keeps attracting buyers during the session.
Risk: DuPont moves less than most stocks on this list, so even a 1.2% rise above the open may not come.
From $149.95 at 9:30 AM:high +3.15% at 9:32 AMclose +2.16%day +8.41% Reached +1.2% - 8

UpgradeKeyBanc upgrades Howmet Aerospace to Overweight from Sector Weight, $237 price target — CNBC
KeyBanc upgraded Howmet Aerospace to Overweight from Sector Weight with a $237 price target, citing relative value after an 11% drop over six months while the S&P 500 rose about 5%, plus growth from 2027. Upgrades of large aerospace names after a pullback usually draw buyers in the first hours.
Risk: Without earnings news, the upgrade alone may lift the stock only briefly.

Questions
What stocks will go up today?
We estimate Revvity, AMD and Micron are the most likely to rise on Tuesday, November 3, 2026. Revvity beat third-quarter estimates and raised its full-year profit forecast, and chip stocks are rebounding, with AMD up 3% ahead of results tonight and Micron up 4%. Bloom Energy, Cloudflare, Aehr Test Systems, DuPont and Howmet Aerospace complete the list on upgrades and earnings.
Which stocks are moving on earnings today?
Before the open on November 3, 2026, Revvity rose 7% to 9% after a beat and raised guidance, Aehr Test Systems jumped 15.5% on record revenue, and DuPont gained 2% to 3% after raising its profit forecast. Apple fell 3% to 4% on a weak margin outlook, Palantir dropped about 8% despite beating estimates, and Zebra Technologies fell more than 6%.
What stocks got upgraded today?
On November 3, 2026, Barclays upgraded Bloom Energy to Overweight, JPMorgan raised Cloudflare to Overweight after a 20% one-month drop, KeyBanc lifted Howmet Aerospace to Overweight with a $237 target, Goldman Sachs moved SiriusXM to Buy with a $37 target, and BMO upgraded Aon and Marsh & McLennan to Outperform. Bank of America cut Marvell to Neutral after its all-stock deal for Lumentum.
Why is Revvity stock up today?
Revvity is up 7% to 9% before the open on November 3, 2026, because third-quarter adjusted earnings of $1.37 a share beat the $1.30 consensus, revenue of $729 million topped estimates of about $695 million, and the company raised its full-year adjusted EPS forecast to $5.40-$5.45 from $5.30-$5.40. We estimate a 60% chance it trades at least 2% above its opening price today.
Are chip stocks up today?
Yes. Before the open on November 3, 2026, Micron is up almost 4%, AMD and Intel more than 3%, and Nvidia and Broadcom about 2%. That has Nasdaq-100 futures up 0.8% even as Apple's drop weighs on the Dow. AMD reports third-quarter results after today's close, which could set the tone for the group tomorrow.

How the stocks are picked and scored
- Every trading day at 9:00 AM ET, before the 9:30 AM open, we read last night’s and the morning’s company news — earnings and guidance, analyst upgrades, deals and contracts, product and regulatory news, index changes — and pick the 6–10 liquid US stocks most likely to rise that day.
- Each pick gets a target (the expected rise from the open to the day’s high) and a confidence (the chance of getting there), and we weigh the size of the surprise, the pre-market move and the market’s mood. Stocks under $5, thinly traded ones, and targets of cash takeovers are left out.
- Each list is measured from the moment it could be acted on: the 9:30 AM opening price, or the minute it went public if that was later. “To the high” is the rise from there to the session’s highest price; “to the close”, to the closing price. A pick reaches its target when its rise to the high is at least the target.
- Beside it, a second list picked only by the data: at 8:55 AM ET a screen reads every S&P 500 stock’s pre-market price and lists those matching setups tested on every gap day since 2016, with what each setup did then. It reads no news and stays empty when nothing matches; both lists are scored the same way so their records can be compared.
- The S&P 500 ETF (SPY) over the same minutes is shown as the bar to beat. Results are live while the market trades and final after the close; every past list stays online with its results.
