We did hold onto our rate-sensitive names like Wells Fargo and Morgan Stanley , which were among the best performers since the last Monthly Meeting. Morgan Stanley: 16.2% Following the Fed's decision, shares advanced as investors became more optimistic about a soft landing for the U.S. economy. Morgan Stanley benefits from lower rates — and, in turn, a better economy — because it can usher in more Wall Street dealmaking such as initial public offerings and mergers and acquisitions. That's because the Club has been debating exiting Morgan Stanley altogether for a potentially better investment banking rebound play like Goldman Sachs. Morgan Stanley reiterated its buy-equivalent rating on Oct. 10, arguing that Eaton has a positive setup into earnings season.

The US and Canada drive 70% of Netflix's revenue growth and are crucial for its future ad expansion. AdvertisementBy now, it's become a common refrain in Hollywood: Netflix has won the streaming wars. Amazon threw a wrench into Netflix's advertising ambitions by steamrolling into the market earlier this year. With subscriber growth potential limited in the US because Netflix is already quite saturated in the market, Netflix needs to ramp up ad revenue. While Netflix's ad tier growth is steadily adding inventory, those tech deals will take a couple of years to ramp up.
