Morphology
The meaning of 'hot stock' is directly derivable from 'hot' (popular, in demand) + 'stock' (a share), so a learner knowing both words can infer it refers to a share currently hyped or sought after. This adjective+noun composition and the use of 'hot' to mean 'trending' is common in English and cross-linguistically familiar, making it transparent to a B1 learner.
Etymology
Hot stock comes from the image of something hot that everyone wants right away, like bread fresh from the oven, so people hurry to grab it. That's why a hot stock means 'a stock that is very popular and in high demand'.
