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 key moments. The Dow on Thursday topped 40,000 for the first time ever. The S & P 500 and the Nasdaq also hit record highs for the second session in a row — pushing the market further into overbought territory. “I have always felt that when you have a huge, fast move up, it’s incumbent to take something off the table because you can have a huge fast move down,” Jim Cramer said Thursday. That’s why we trimmed our positions in Morgan Stanley on Wednesday and Palo Alto Networks on Thursday. Honeywell has had a lackluster year. Jim said the industrial conglomerate “needs a makeover” and should learn from General Electric ‘s split into three companies — one of which became Club name GE Healthcare . Honeywell has its hand in too many industries and should focus on higher-growth business, Jim said. To be sure, Honeywell plans to divest up to 10% of revenue streams not aligned around its three identified megatrends of automation, aviation, and energy transition. However, we want to see more aggressive action from management. Costco shares hit all-time highs after retailers soared on Walmart ‘s strong quarter and guidance raise. Dow stock Walmart also rose sharply to all-time highs. “I continue to think Costco is the stock to buy off of Walmart,” Jim said Thursday. “Costco and Walmart are where this frugal consumer [goes].” Continued concerns around the U.S. economy and sticky inflation leave shoppers wanting more price-friendly goods that Costco’s membership offers.
