As megacaps continue to decline, CNBC's Jim Cramer said he remains optimistic about their prospects in the long run. "You just need to get over the hump, a hump that periodically scares people out of this whole asset class." Cramer said he always encourages investors take profits on winners when they can, otherwise it's possible to "get obliterated." And owning losers can feel more difficult than owning winners because it's more obvious why the latter might be on the decline, he added. Cramer said the arguments against these stocks are "for real," but similar to what has been said about them for years.

Bloom Energy is an up-and-coming artificial intelligence play, according to Morgan Stanley. Analyst Andrew Percoco reiterated his overweight rating on San Jose-based Bloom Energy after it announced a strategic partnership on Tuesday with Nvidia-backed GPU cloud provider CoreWeave. Under the agreement, Bloom Energy will deploy its solid oxide fuel cells to generate power for CoreWeave's data center in Illinois. The analyst's $22 price target implies shares of Bloom Energy can jump nearly 44% from its latest closing price. Bloom Energy and e-commerce giant Amazon last week entered into an agreement with Silicon Valley Power to deploy 20 megawatts of fuel cells for an Amazon data center, Percoco noted.

When it comes to investing in municipal bonds, the Fidelity Intermediate Municipal Income Fund (FLTMX) has a "steadfast" approach that has served investors well, according to Morningstar. They look at the yield curve, credit quality and structure of the bond when assessing assets, he added. The result is a 45.5% allocation to AA-rated munis, 31% in A-rated and 7% in BBB-rated municipal bonds. The team also makes a lot of small bets instead of relying on big investments that can make or break a portfolio, Maka added. So we've been buying some of those deep discount securities that were hit hard as rates rose," Maka explained.

LONDON — The British pound on Wednesday broke above the $1.30 level against the U.S. dollar for the first time in a year, as investors bank on a coming period of growth-friendly policies and political stability under the newly elected Labour government. Sterling was 0.5% higher against the U.S. dollar at $1.303 at 1:04 p.m. in London (8:04 a.m. U.K. inflation came in at the Bank of England's 2% target for a second straight month, figures published earlier Wednesday showed. However, the inflation print slightly reduced market bets on an August rate cut from the central bank due to the stickiness of the key services print. The U.K. currency has also been supported by the recent landslide parliamentary victory for the Labour Party, according to analysts.

Gold eases after hitting fresh record
  + stars: | 2024-07-17 | by ( Lee Ying Shan | In Ying-Shan-Lee | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +2 min
One kilogram gold bullion at the YLG Bullion International Co. headquarters in Bangkok, Thailand, on Friday, Dec. 22, 2023. Gold prices extended their rise to a fresh all-time high on Wednesday, as growing optimism for an interest-rate cut from the U.S. Federal Reserve in September and a weaker dollar boosted demand. Spot gold eased about 0.2% to $2,462.85 per ounce, driven by profit-taking, after the bullion hit a high of $2,482.29 earlier in the session. Markets now see a 98% chance of a U.S. rate cut in September, according to the CME FedWatch Tool. Lower interest rates decrease the opportunity cost of holding non-yielding bullion and weigh on the dollar, making gold cheaper for investors holding other currencies.

Yen jumps on suspected intervention, sterling hits one-year high
  + stars: | 2024-07-17 | by ( ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +4 min
The yen rose sharply on Wednesday in what traders suspected was likely the result of yet another intervention from Japanese authorities to prop up the battered currency from multidecade lows. The euro was last down 0.8% at 171.15 yen, while sterling fell 0.76% to 203.75 yen. Combined with the estimated amount spent a day earlier, Japan is suspected to have bought nearly 6 trillion yen via intervention last week. That sent traders paring back bets of a rate cut from the Bank of England in August, providing a small boost to sterling , which was last up 0.43% to $1.3029. But the more important data is the inflation data, and that's telling the market that the Fed is in a position to cut fairly soon."

Increased shipments of Apple's iPhones will be a key "volume driver" for the supply chain, according to Morgan Stanley. But the situation is set to change, with Apple Intelligence predicted to be a "key iPhone replacement driver." It raised its price targets for several stocks in the Apple supply chain. Largan reported first-quarter revenue that was below expectations but Morgan Stanley believes that was the trough. Morgan Stanley said Genius has a "good chance" of making a breakthrough in the periscope high-end lens segment in the second half of this year.

Instead, the team determined that the shape of the cut marks was consistent with those made by stone tools. “The cut marks were not randomly distributed but focused on those skeletal elements that harbored large muscle packs like the pelvis and the tail,” he said. A detailed examination of cut marks on the fossils revealed they were made by stone tools in a deliberate sequence. Along with three perforated giant sloth bones found in Brazil that archaeologists believe humans used as pendants 25,000 to 27,000 years ago, the butchered armadillo bones suggest that humans were in South America a surprisingly long time ago. “Until recently, the traditional model indicated that humans entered the continent 16,000 calendar years ago,” he said.

As buyers continued to cycle out of tech on Wednesday, CNBC's Jim Cramer reminded investors of his classic adage: Keep a diverse portfolio. Owning stocks from different sectors makes it easier to shoulder losses when one part of the market takes a nosedive, according to Cramer. Mega-cap tech stocks related to artificial intelligence swept the market during the first half of the year. But now Wall Street is clamoring for small and medium-sized businesses, especially ones that would benefit from interest rate cuts — which could be on the horizon as inflation slows. To Cramer, many on Wall Street sell great stocks out of fear or panic, which sometimes creates solid buying opportunities.

The Hennessy Cornerstone Growth Fund (HFCGX) managed by Neil Hennessy, Ryan Kelley, and Josh Wein is in the top 3% of its category in the last 10 years, according to Morningstar. AdvertisementThis stock screen, which doesn't examine a company's management team or balance sheet, is "a little bit unorthodox," Wein acknowledged. A 4-part pathway to strong gainsThough unconventional, the four-part vetting process that serves as the backbone of the Hennessy Cornerstone Growth Fund is far from unproven.

CNBC's Jim Cramer on Tuesday pointed out that there is a discrepancy between the economy's performance and the general sense of pessimism that many Americans feel towards the economy. "The market, which reflects the reality of the economy, is benefitting plenty of people, but not nearly enough to change the mood of the nation," he said. Cramer first attributed this pessimism to the chaos of this year's presidential election. The "anger and ugliness in Washington" seeps into every aspect of life, Cramer said. People really feel the weight of high prices at supermarkets, he said, even if wages are solid and jobs aren't extremely hard to find.
