Abbott Laboratories Why we own it : Abbott is a high-quality medtech company growing at a fast clip. As Abbott's organic sales growth continues to shine, the market will realize both concerns are overblown. We also love that EPS results on Tuesday came in above the range management had forecasted — a classic case of under-promising and over-delivering. ABT YTD mountain Abbott Laboratories YTD Organic growth was very strong, up nearly 11%, marking the fifth consecutive quarter of double-digit increases. In diagnostics, where we see the impact of the decline in Covid testing sales, organic sales increased 5.4% year over year.

Heightened tensions in the Middle East, including the possibility of Iran attacking Israel, sent stocks back down and oil prices higher. If the choice is between a weak economy with lower rates or a strong economy with higher rates, we'll take the strong economy every time. Low rates may help with valuation multiples, but it's a strong economy that leads to earnings growth and that's what we, as long-term investors care about. Shelter costs are a major sticking point for overall inflation, which makes Tuesday's housing starts and building permits report a key watch item. We'll get another look at housing with the release of the March existing home sales report on Thursday.

Twenty-six of our 32 portfolio stocks have delivered their results this earnings season (we didn't own Abbott Labs at the time of its report). It was a muted week for macroeconomic data, but we did get a slightly better-than-expected January existing home sales report on Thursday.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average set its first record close since January 2022 in December and ended Friday's session at a record high above 37,800. The Nasdaq, on the other hand, ended Friday at 15,310.97 — meaning it needs to rally about 5% more to take out its Nov. 19, 2021 record high. It is worth noting that the Nasdaq 100 , which is weighed more heavily in Big Tech, did close at another record high Friday. Quite a bit has happened on Wall Street since the S & P 500's old high in January 2022.

CNBC's Jim Cramer on Wednesday reviewed what he thinks will be major themes on the market in 2024, including strength in the health-care sector due to weight loss drugs and success for mergers and acquisitions. With the major indexes declining on Wednesday, Cramer thought it would be helpful to tell investors what broader market themes they can reference on down days. And if you understand the themes behind them, you won't get shaken out by a bad tape—you'll use it to your advantage," Cramer said. He wondered whether other stocks would join the ranks of the "Magnificent Seven," but conceded that any contenders will be involved with artificial intelligence. "I'll have a lot more themes as the year goes on, because I'm not constrained by the calendar," he said.

CNBC's Jim Cramer on Wednesday explained how GLP-1 drugs are influencing market action. GLP-1 drugs were initially approved to treat diabetes, but many found off-label use to help with weight loss. Popular GLP-1 drugs include Eli Lilly 's Mounjaro and Novo Nordisk 's Wegovy, the latter of which has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration for weight loss management. Even though it seems early to asses the impact of these drugs, they are already affecting stocks, Cramer said. Intuitive Surgical also saw shares slide when executives noted slowed growth in bariatric surgeries last quarter, potentially due to increased use of GLP-1 drugs.

After a down day for his "Magnificent Seven" stocks, CNBC's Jim Cramer picked winners outside the tech sphere. "But if you owned a diversified portfolio, including beaten-down stocks for 2023, stocks that represent great value now, you crushed it." Cramer saw winners on Thursday in the health-care sector, specifically Johnson & Johnson and Abbott Labs . He also advised that investors look into the utilities sector, including Sempra , PG&E and American Electric Power , along with transports, especially railroad company Canadian Pacific Kansas City . Cramer conceded he's not sure this broadening market move has staying power, wondering if tech will return to its top slot next week.
