☆ 11 surprising things from this earnings season, including my favorite stock so far
▼ + stars: | 2024-11-03 | by ( Jim Cramer | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +17 min

Horton makes the most sense as a Kamala Harris stock because of a promised $25,000 toward a first home. I don't know if either candidate can pull off huge tariffs (Trump) or a credit (Harris). Here are eleven surprising things about this earnings season that you can store up and pull out when the election is confirmed. The deficit will begin to hurt the stock market hard next year even if the economy continues to cool. Away from the hyperscalers, I like Marvell , where CEO Matt Murphy bought $1 million worth of stock in the open market.

But Thursday night, the jury from its second trial found the company not liable. The second trial was brought before the same judge in Missouri as the first one. Abbott Labs' shares jumped on Friday in response to the news, finishing the session up 4.61%. Cramer listed reasons he's positive on Abbott Labs, saying he likes the company's four core businesses, especially its medical device arm focused on cardiology and diabetes. Abbott Labs did not immediately respond to request for comment.

The legal overhang on Abbott Labs has been real, even if shares have found some traction in recent months. Bottom line Abbott Labs still faces other cases over its specialized formulas across the country, but Thursday night's win is significant. Abbott shares traded around 22 times forward earnings estimates Friday, below their five-year average of 24, according to FactSet. With victory in hand, Abbott Labs will now begin the next phase of its legal fight on much stronger ground.

A highly anticipated legislative hearing began Monday but without its key witness: a Texas inmate whose execution for his daughter's "shaken baby" death was narrowly averted last week. The high court, however, said Sunday it would not rule on the manner in which Roberson must testify. Roberson, 57, has maintained his innocence in the 2002 death of his 2-year-old daughter, Nikki, based on "shaken baby syndrome." But hours later, Roberson said, he woke up and realized Nikki was not breathing and her lips looked blue. Wharton, the lead detective in the case, has also voiced his support for Roberson, telling House committee members at a hearing last week: "This is an innocent man, beyond question."

☆ Embattled Abbott Labs comes through with a strong quarter, buyback announcement

Organic sales, which exclude Covid testing, were up 8.2% from the year-ago period. Bottom line In its third quarter, Abbott Labs demonstrated why we wanted to stick with the stock in the face of legal battles that emerged earlier this year and spooked investors. "There's just a lot to like with the Abbott quarter." As Abbott's organic sales growth continues to shine, the market will realize both concerns are overblown. The company reiterated its full-year organic sales growth outlook of 9.5% to 10%.

☆ Abbott launches its first over-the-counter continuous glucose monitor in the U.S.

Abbott Laboratories announced Thursday its over-the-counter continuous glucose monitor Lingo is available in the U.S. starting at $49. These devices, called continuous glucose monitors, are small sensors that stick through the skin to measure real-time glucose levels. Continuous glucose monitors have served as tools for patients with diabetes, but Lingo is not intended for diabetes management. The company released its over-the-counter continuous glucose monitor geared toward this demographic in late August. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved Dexcom's Stelo in March, and it cleared two over-the-counter continuous glucose monitoring systems from Abbott in June.

Greg Abbott officially set the special election to replace the late Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, D-Texas, for Nov. 5, 2024, the same day as the general election. The special election will only determine who will serve out the rest of Jackson Lee’s term, through January. There will be no primary for the general election, since Jackson Lee won that in March. Edwards mounted a primary challenge against Jackson Lee earlier this year, which Jackson Lee won by over 20 percentage points in March. Any other candidates who wish to run in the special election must declare their candidacy by August 22, the governor's official proclamation said.

☆ US-Mexico border security is stretching troops thin, placing demands 'not related to their military mission set,' National Guard chief says
▼ + stars: | 2024-07-19 | by ( Steve Beynon | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +7 min

For decades, the National Guard has had some level of presence on the southwest border. The border mission is mostly static security and surveillance, but troops typically are not allowed to interact directly with migrants or suspected smugglers. It also has been contributing to retention issues that have plagued the Army National Guard. The move sparked numerous questions on the ethics and legality of privately funding National Guard operations — and came as Noem was boosting her national profile. The National Guard has frequently been caught in the middle between state politicians and federal officials.

☆ Here's why Abbott Labs stock is getting dinged after a strong earnings beat
▼ + stars: | 2024-07-18 | by ( Zev Fima | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +9 min

As Abbott's organic sales growth continues to shine, the market will realize both concerns are overblown. The FreeStyle Libre itself, which had 20% organic growth in the quarter, also still has plenty of runway for further growth. Investors should focus instead on the upward revision to management's full-year outlook for both top-line organic growth and earnings. The combination of Thursday's strong results and immediate decline in share price is setting up a positive risk vs. reward setup. Within Diagnostics, a small miss in molecular was more than offset by strong results in core laboratory, point of care and rapid diagnostics.

But, a version of the index that assigns each company the same influence, known as the S & P 500 Equal-Weight , has advanced only around 1%. The divergence helps explain why our trusted momentum indicator, the S & P Short Range Oscillator , has been closer to oversold territory than overbought during the run higher.

Abbott Laboratories announced Monday it received approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for two new continuous glucose monitoring systems, including one for people who don't have diabetes. A continuous glucose monitor, or a CGM, is a small sensor that pokes through the skin and tracks a person's glucose levels in real time. One of Abbott's new systems, Libre Rio, is for patients with Type 2 diabetes who do not take insulin. Oftentimes, users need a valid CGM prescription to participate in these programs, so Abbott's new over-the-counter offering could be more accessible for some consumers. Abbott competitor Dexcom , which also sells CGM systems, received FDA approval for its first-ever over-the-counter CGM in March.
