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 Monday’s key moments. 1. Wall Street was mixed Monday after the Dow , the S & P 500 and the Nasdaq finished higher for the fourth straight week. With the last trading day of November on Thursday, the major stock benchmarks were tracking for monthly gains. The market came out of last week’s rally very overbought, according to the S & P 500 Short Range Oscillator , which signals to us to raise cash. 2. That’s exactly what we did Monday morning, taking some profits in Alphabet (GOOGL). Since our last trim in May, Alphabet has rallied more than 25%, outperforming the S & P 500’s gain of about 10%. Alphabet has recovered all its third-quarter earnings selloff. Outperformance has caused the position to re-swell – so trim . The sale is not reflective of a change in our longer-term thesis on Alphabet. 3. GE Healthcare (GEHC) was downgraded to sell from neutral at UBS, which also cut its price target on the stock to $66 per share from $86. The analysts believe soft order momentum and tough comps will put 2024 earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) 4% below consensus with room for downside if China’s economy weakens next year. Jim Cramer took issue with the note, saying Monday that GEHC’s body scan machines are key in the administration of a new class of Alzheimer’s drugs. That’s a big opportunity. “It’s AI mixed with MRI” to determine who qualifies, Jim added. (Jim Cramer’s Charitable Trust is long GOOGL, GEHC. See here for a full list of the stocks.)
