Stocks to Watch Thursday, Oct 15: GLND, GDYN, NCPL and MXCT
By Tech & Money Press · October 15, 2026
Wednesday’s hot CPI report sent the S&P 500 to its worst day since July, and the Nasdaq fell 1.9%. Thursday brings another inflation test: the Producer Price Index (PPI) at 8:30 AM ET. Charles Schwab (SCHW), U.S. Bancorp (USB), PNC Financial (PNC) and Snap-on (SNA) report earnings before the bell.
Here are the four stocks on our radar for Thursday, based on Wednesday’s volume and after-hours action.
Market levels to know (SPY)
- Resistance: $770.38, then $774.59–$775.91 and $779.35
- Support: $766.76, then $763.91–$764.33 (key zone) and $758.82
Watchlist
GLND (Greenland Energy)
- Close: $3.90 (+76%) on 175M shares, market cap about $170M
- After hours: Faded about 15% to $3.30; overnight trading near $3.17
- Setup: Day-2 candidate only if it reclaims $3.42. A break below $3.14 takes it off the list
- Resistance: $3.42, $4.00, $4.48 (day high)
- Support: $3.14
GDYN (Grid Dynamics)
- Close: $7.67 (−1.4%), market cap about $622M
- After hours: Printed $8.44 (+10%) on thin volume (about 59K shares); overnight trading back near $7.76
- Setup: Mid-cap under $10. The after-hours print needs premarket volume to confirm. Check the news for a catalyst
- Resistance: $7.86 (day high), $8.15, $8.44 (after-hours high)
- Support: $7.57
NCPL (Netcapital)
- Close: $1.59 (+14%) on 30.6M shares
- After hours: Up about 19% to $1.89, with a high of $2.25; overnight trading near $1.79
- Setup: Sitting just under VWAP (~$1.95). A reclaim of VWAP opens a run at $2.26
- Resistance: $1.95 (VWAP), $2.26, $2.60 (Wednesday premarket spike)
- Support: $1.56
MXCT (MaxCyte)
- Close: $1.25 (+30%) on 12.7M shares, 6.9x relative volume, market cap about $129M
- After hours: Up to $1.31; overnight trading near $1.23
- Setup: Held a tight range above VWAP all afternoon after the gap. We’re watching for a break of $1.33
- Resistance: $1.33 (day high)
- Support: $1.25 (VWAP), $1.20
Our Take
Our first check comes at 7:00 AM: we’ll see which of these four hold volume and price in the premarket. Any name that loses its after-hours level comes off the list.
We avoid entries around the 8:30 AM PPI release and wait for price to settle. After that, we look for a 9 EMA / 10 SMA cross above VWAP before taking a position.
GLND (+76%), MXCT (+30%) and NCPL are small caps coming off big moves, so they carry a high risk of share offerings or dilution. We check recent filings before trading them. GDYN’s after-hours pop came on very light volume, so we don’t trust it until the premarket confirms it.
If PPI comes in hot and SPY loses the $763.91 zone, we cut position sizes, because small caps usually get hit hardest when the broad market sells off.
