BALTIMORE (TheStreet) -- "Futures advance. Retail sales make gains. Bernanke to speak on economic outlook. GM, in first post-bankruptcy report, says it lost $1.2 billion. Gold hits another record," read this morning's premarket report from CNN. Short of GM's performance, you'd hardly know that we're in a recession, sentiment echoed last week with the S&P 500's 2.26% gain.

But the S&P's rally paled in comparison with how our Rocket Stock picks fared last week. And this week's new list of Rocket Stocks -- beaten-down stocks with near-term growth catalysts and long-term growth potential -- looks primed to continue that performance.
