Investing Club Member Update
The CNBC Investing Club Team Jim Cramer created the Investing Club to help individual investors make sense of the ups and downs of the stock market. Jim makes an effort to engage regularly with his club members because he knows we have to work together if we’re going to beat Wall Street at their own game.
Jim has always believed in building a strong team, which is why he brought Director of Portfolio Analysis, Jeff Marks and Portfolio Analyst, Zev Fima, on as analysts to help him run the CNBC Investing Club and support club members.
Jeff Marks is responsible for assisting in all portfolio management duties, including broader market strategy and investment analysis, while generating portfolio-related content for subscribers. Jeff graduated from The Pennsylvania State University with a Bachelor of Science degree in Finance. He is a CFA charterholder.
Zev Fima helps with the research for and management of the Investing Club portfolio, along with the generation of content for club members. Zev got his start in the financial markets as an outsider, working as a recruiter, studying for the CFA exams. Zev mailed a letter to Jim Cramer who responded simply by asking him to pitch five stocks. Zev made his pitch, landed an interview and has been working with Jim ever since. He is also a CFA charterholder.

Highlights From This Past Week
Jim Cramer discussed thelatest Wall Street buzz on Ford in his new special morning noteto club members and highlighted the latest on Ford earlier this past week.
"Ford... Jefferies raises estimates... Ford credit making a lot of money... value of cars isn’t shrinking... "
The club sent out a separate note on Ford later in the week as the shares climbed higher explaining why momentum was building in the name.
"Ford paying a dividend and reducing its debt is a tremendous sign of confidence in free cash flow generation."
Investing Club holding DuPont reported better than expected third-quarter results Tuesday morning. Here's how the club analyzed the report like the pros:
"Overall, a solid quarter from DuPont that outperformed expectations. Even though guidance for the fourth quarter was light, we think the market understood a revision was coming with shares already trading well off their highs coming into the print."
Investing Club holding Estee Lauder reported better-than-expected results with its fiscal first-quarter 2022 earnings results on Tuesday before the opening bell. Here's how the club broke down the report.
"By setting low expectations with their fiscal first quarter release, the team has set themselves up to deliver earnings beats down the road with the opportunity to potentially raise guidance as supply chain headwinds ease and visibility improves."
Investing Club holding Nvidia grew into the Trust’s largest holding at 5.4% this past week. The move follows a very bullish note from analysts at Wells Fargo in which the bank reiterated its overweight rating and increased its price target to $320 (from $245) on the back of an analysis of Nvidia’s Omniverse Enterprise platform.
"Quantifying what all this means to investors, the analysts at Wells Fargo think that this can open up an additional $10 billion market opportunity for Nvidia with the (Omniverse adoption in the enterprise segment)."
Investing Club holdings PayPal and Mastercard were hit by sellers this past week. PayPal has been falling since there was news that it was interested in buying Pinterest.
"Even though we believe the selloffs in these two have been completely overdone, we want to reiterate the notion that Mastercard and PayPal are broken stocks right now, not broken companies."
The CNBC Investing Club is now the official home to my Charitable Trust. It’s the place where you can see every move we make for the portfolio and get my market insight before anyone else. The Charitable Trust and my writings are no longer affiliated with Action Alerts Plus in any way.
As a subscriber to the CNBC Investing Club with Jim Cramer, you will receive a trade alert before Jim makes a trade. Typically, Jim waits 45 minutes after sending a trade alert before buying or selling a stock in his charitable trust’s portfolio. If the trade alert is sent pre-market, Jim waits 5 minutes after the market opens before executing the trade. If the trade alert is issued with less than 45 minutes in the trading day, Jim executes the trade 5 minutes before the market closes. If Jim has talked about a stock on CNBC TV, he waits 72 hours after issuing the trade alert before executing the trade.
