March 2023 Stock Market Momentum

This page answers a question about a finished month with data: which US-listed stocks posted the strongest price gains in March 2023. The ranking is based on observed market performance, not analyst ratings, price targets, or investment recommendations.

Use the list to research momentum, market breadth, sector strength, and catalysts behind large moves. Before acting on any stock, review the company's news, SEC filings, liquidity, volatility, and your own risk constraints.

#1 UNCY leads March 2023 gainers with +306%

Among the 3,985 NYSE, Nasdaq and NYSE American stocks currently eligible for this ranking, UNCY (Unicycive Therapeutics, Inc.) has the highest gain in March 2023 with +306%. Following are KC (+131%) and OBIO (+109%).

MARKET LEADERS

This ranking shows the top performing stocks and biggest stock gainers of March 2023, measured from the last close of February to the last close of March.

Monthly performance rankings can reveal price strength, sustained momentum, sector rotation, and event-driven moves that are not visible in one-day movers lists. The table is informational only and does not recommend any stock to buy, sell, or hold.

† Return measured from the start of the stock's current trading history (a recent listing or relisting), not from the start of the month.
Gains are computed on split-adjusted closes, so a split inside the month does not read as a move. This ranking is informational and is not investment advice.
What this ranking covers
Universe
US-listed companies on NYSE, Nasdaq and NYSE American.
Floors
Market cap of at least $100 million, and at least one close inside the month.
Exclusions
Stocks whose price history is under review are withheld, and their count is stated above.
Measured on
Split-adjusted closes, from the last close of the previous month to the last close of this one.
Refreshed
Rebuilt once the session behind those closes has settled. The date above the table names that session, not the moment the table was written. A gain dated earlier than the board date uses the last close stored for that stock.

Q Does this page recommend the best stocks to buy now?
A

No. This page is an informational ranking of stocks that have already gone up during March 2023. It does not make buy, sell, or hold recommendations and should be used as a research starting point, not financial advice.

Q How can this ranking help explain current stock market trends?
A

The ranking shows where price strength is concentrated during March 2023. Comparing the top gainers by sector, market cap, and recent catalysts can help identify momentum themes and market rotation without implying that any listed stock is a recommendation.

Understanding Monthly Stock Performance

Monthly performance rankings reveal short-term momentum patterns and help identify stocks experiencing rapid price movements:

  • Momentum Research: Stocks showing strong monthly performance can help identify where market attention and price strength are concentrated.
  • Sector Rotation: Monthly rankings can reveal which sectors are gaining favor with investors and where market leadership is shifting.
  • Event-Driven Moves: Earnings releases, product launches, and regulatory approvals often create significant monthly price movements.

Using Monthly Data Effectively

  • Combine Timeframes: Compare monthly gainers with 52-week and YTD performance to identify stocks with both short and long-term momentum.
  • Research the Catalyst: Investigate why top monthly performers moved significantly. The reason for the move matters as much as the percentage gain.
  • Watch for Reversals: Extreme monthly gains sometimes precede corrections, so treat the ranking as a research starting point rather than a buy list.
