Premarket Volume Scan

Market Narrative

## Premarket Scan for September 4, 2026 Every candidate on today's watchlist is showing zero confirmed premarket volume, which immediately drops the entire gap list to C-tier and changes how you approach the open. MSTP and RACC stand out marginally within that group because both are showing premarket ranges above 10%, at 10.74% and 10.75% respectively, suggesting some price discovery is happening even without meaningful volume printing. MSTP is gapping up 35% to $26.64 while RACC is gapping down 37.37% to $12.37. Neither qualifies as a high-conviction setup heading into the bell, but if volume materializes at the open, MSTP gets first look on the long side and RACC on the short side given their wider PM ranges indicating at least some two-sided activity. For the tighter-range gaps like MSTC, MSTX, MSTU, and RARE, those stay on the back burner until a clear HOD or LOD breakout prints with volume behind it. No volume confirmation means no trade, regardless of the gap percentage. The real story on September 4, 2026 is the macro tape. Non-Farm Payrolls are dropping before the open with a forecast of 55K against a prior reading of negative 23K, and the unemployment rate is expected to hold at 4.1%. Average Hourly Earnings are forecast at 0.3% month-over-month after a weak 0.1% prior print. A number that beats on payrolls and wages simultaneously likely sends risk assets higher and could accelerate any long-side gap setups that have volume. A miss, especially on NFP, opens the door for the short side and could give RACC and RARE additional follow-through if sellers show up at the open. On a macro event day this significant, VWAP reclaim and fade setups take priority over simple breakout trades, because price will often rip or flush on the number and then consolidate around VWAP before establishing direction. For strategy on September 4, 2026, all candidates are shares-only given the illiquidity profile, which is appropriate. If MSTP or RACC develop volume at the open, treat MSTP as a HOD breakout candidate above its premarket high with a tight stop below VWAP, and RACC as a LOD breakdown candidate if it fails to reclaim its premarket low after the initial flush. The volume leaders flagged today, SPWR, GPRO, BTAI, MIMI, and ADBT, carry no directional gap but represent liquid tape to trade if the NFP number creates broad
