[MUSIC] Jim Kramer here to share with you a sample of my take on the market from today's CBC Investing Club Morning Meeting. Today is a day when smaller caps stocks are shiny and most important, companies that do well when interest rates come down. Jeff, you know that this CPI is really in control today. You don't buy the semis when you get a great CPI number. You buy Best Buy and Stanley Buckner. Yeah, I mean look, if you would have told me CPI would be down 0.1% month over month and the S&P would be down on that. I'd be very surprised, but what's happening as you call it out, it's a lot of rotation out of these big mega cap names that have just been up, up, up and up, Apple, Amazon, Meta, Microsoft, Nvidia, all the names that we've championed for years. And they're finally rotating into some other groups that do benefit more when rates come down, which they are today, 10-year, falls below 4.2%. I mean look, we bought Next Tracker. We started a position that a couple of weeks ago. They're one of the biggest beneficiaries, the solar stocks of lower rates. So you're seeing that play out today. People should be able to say correlation. It's very important correlation. Stanley, Black and Decker, that's another one we've been saying. You know, we've had to be very patient in that. But, you know, finally putting together a couple of good days as rates come down. Well, I think that people have to understand, we set up a portfolio, and I remember when I was at Goldman Sachs at Jack Shepherd, my partner used to say, "Look, they can't all go up at once." And the reason why is because they shouldn't. We always want stocks that are lever to different things. Now we obviously learn so much of the tech tight. It's probably more than anyone else on Earth. We identified companies like Nvidia very early. But we also felt that at this stage in the rate cycle, it would be good to have some rate cycle beneficiaries. Because we predicted that there will be a day. You'll have a day where the big caps get killed. And you'll see these things shine. Now you and I were talking about Shoe, which is the name of course we used for the guy. CEO of Next Tracker. CEO of Next Tracker. Yes. And when I saw the rates go down, the first thing I said was, "This is going to be Next Tracker's day." Absolutely. Absolutely. Yeah. When we initiated, we pointed out interest rates and government policy. Those are some two big swing factors. But as interest rates go down, should be good for them. Should point out though, in relation to the cooler than expected CPI, you have odds increasing of a cut in September, December, but maybe even a third one this year as well. At the end of the month or later in the year. Somewhere in between. Well, look, I've got to tell you that when you look at the actual breakdown, I think J-PAL will be foolish to move anything other than one. Join the CMC Investing Club with Jim Kramer.
