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. Stocks rise Stick with Palo Alto A slew of trades 1. Stocks start the week up Equities mainly moved higher Monday morning — with the S & P 500 up 0.35% and the Nasdaq Composite up nearly 0.9% — largely on the back of Big Tech, even as most other market sectors were lagging. At the same time, the market remains oversold at minus 4.72%, according to the the S & P 500 Short Range Oscillator . Looking ahead this week, markets will be focused on Club name Nvidia ‘s (NVDA) quarterly results on Wednesday and a speech from Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell in Jackson Hole on Friday. In an uncertain month for stocks, Jim Cramer continues to urge patience . 2. Stick with Palo Alto Networks Shares of Club name Palo Alto Networks (PANW) surged more than 14% Monday morning, to above $240 apiece, after the cybersecurity leader delivered better-than-expected quarterly results Friday after the closing bell. The news surprised investors, many of whom had been bracing for speed bumps. Palo Alto also outlined strong medium-term guidance through 2026, with operating margins expected to come in at 28% to 29%. Stay tuned for a detailed Club analysis of the results later Monday. 3. A slew of trades On Friday, we exited our position in oil-services name Halliburton (HAL), while buying up more shares in our newest holdings: Oracle (ORCL) and DuPont de Nemours (DD). DuPont announced Monday a $1.8 billion deal to sell its 80.1% stake in its Delrin resins unit to private-equity-firm TJC. Elsewhere, we continued to put cash to work in an oversold market Monday, adding to our positions in GE HealthCare Technologies (GEHC) and Stanley Black & Decker (SWK).
