The market has finally left overbought territory — and why Cramer is watching health-care stocks
Every weekday the CNBC Investing Club with Jim Cramer holds a "Morning Meeting" livestream at 10:20 a.m. ET. Here's a recap of Thursday's key moments. 1. Stocks are slightly higher Thursday off the heels of Wednesday's nasty sell-off. Equity investors are once again keeping an eye on bond yields Thursday after they jumped Wednesday in response to a disappointing auction for 20-year Treasury notes. On Thursday afternoon, the 10-year Treasury yield traded around 4.56%, though it hit above 4.6% earlier in the session. One of the big forces driving the move higher in bond yields this week is President Donald Trump's tax bill, which passed the House and now moves to the Senate. The concern among bond investors is that the legislation would add trillions to the U.S. budget deficit over the next decade. Meanwhile, the S & P 500 Oscillator has finally moved out of overbought territory for the first time since late April, ending Wednesday's session at 3.04%. Anything above 4% for the Oscillator, our trusted momentum indicator, signals overbought conditions. 2. One of the biggest areas to monitor as the tax bill progresses through Congress is the health-care funding implications, with Jim Cramer saying the stocks of companies such as HCA Healthcare , Tenet Healthcare and Humana are important ones to watch. HCA and Tenet operate hospitals and other medical facilities. Humana is an insurer. For Humana and other insurers, another risk is Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services saying it's expanding its audits of Medicare Advantage plans. In general, the health-care sector has been "very disappointing this year," added Jeff Marks, director of portfolio analysis for the Club. Within our portfolio, even Eli Lilly has rolled over after having a really strong few weeks. We took advantage of that weakness to add to our position Tuesday. 3. Tech stocks Apple and Nvidia are also on our radar. Shares of Apple were lower again Thursday after they fell Wednesday on news that Open AI is buying former Apple designer Jony Ive's AI devices startup for $6.4 billion. While Jim reiterated that he's worried about Apple , he said that does not mean he wants to sell anymore of the stock at current levels. Nvidia shares are trading higher Thursday after a rough reversal Wednesday amid the market's broader bond-driven sell-off. Nevertheless, AI cloud computing provider CoreWeave's $2 billion debt offering on Wednesday signaled strong demand for AI projects. CoreWeave buys a lot of Nvidia chips. 4. Stocks covered in Thursday's rapid fire at the end of the video were: Snowflake , AT & T , Humana , United Health Care Group , CVS Health, Marvell Technology , and Nike .

Cramer would not sell Meta Platforms on WSJ report: 'I still like it very much'
Every weekday the CNBC Investing Club with Jim Cramer holds a "Morning Meeting" livestream at 10:20 a.m. ET. Here's a recap of Friday's key moments. 1. The stock market is higher on Friday and pacing for a five-day winning streak. The S & P 500 is on track to gain more than 4% this week. Interest rates are finally on the descent, with the 10-year Treasury yield floating around 4.4%. "We're in such a dynamic time when things are changing constantly day over day," said Jeff Marks, director of portfolio analysis for the Club. The S & P 500 Oscillator moved further into overbought territory, which signals the market could be due for a pullback. 2. The CEO of Coterra Energy spoke with Jim Cramer on "Mad Money" Thursday . "I feel very good about it because they're switching a little more to natural gas," Jim said, explaining that while he doesn't want to own an oil-and-gas stock, company leaning more toward gas is preferable. Coterra recently faced some operational issues that Jorden reiterated would be resolved soon and said were not related to inventory. Despite the reassurance, Jim said, "I can't get behind the [oil stock] group." Jeff highlighted the latest oil industry woes as factors going against Coterra. 3. Meta shares are down again Friday after dipping Thursday following a report in The Wall Street Journal that it is delaying the roll out of its flagship AI language model called "Behemoth." Separately, analysts at Loop Capital raised their price target on the company to $888 from $695, and increased their forecast for a better-than-expected second quarter. "There are so many irons in the fire for Meta, I would not sell on this," advised Jim. "I still like it very much." 4 . Stocks covered in Friday's rapid fire at the end of the video were: Applied Materials , Cava , and Take-Two Interactive . (Jim Cramer's Charitable Trust is long .
