Market rotation winners and losers — plus, quantum computing news from one of our industrials

Every weekday, the CNBC Investing Club with Jim Cramer releases the Homestretch — an actionable afternoon update, just in time for the last hour of trading on Wall Street. Market moves: Stocks were trading lower on Wednesday as the rotation out of technology, high-multiple, and momentum stocks continues. Though some of the selling pressure has eased since the Morning Meeting. We're calling this Day 2 of the market rotation, and our view is that these types of vicious moves tend to last about three sessions. Broadcom , Apple , and Amazon were our worst performers on the session. Among the portfolio's best stocks were TJX Companies , which delivered a beat and raise, Palo Alto Networks , and Costco . Honeywell updates : First thing Wednesday morning, Honeywell said it bought three utility platforms from SparkMeter. Financial terms were not provided, suggesting it was a pretty small deal. Still, it makes strategic sense considering that utilities' spending is on the rise to modernize the grid and increase capacity to support growing electricity demands. One of the biggest draws on the grid has been all the energy needed to power modern data centers that run artificial intelligence. We expect this acquisition will nestle under Honeywell Automation. We favor the company making deals to boost growth ahead of becoming an independent company. Automation will be the remaining business in the overall company's upcoming three-way split, which will see Advanced Materials and Aerospace spun off late this year and early 2026, respectively. Towards midday, Bloomberg reported that Honeywell and other investors are considering raising money for Quantinuum at about a $10 billion valuation. Quantinuum is the quantum computing company that Honeywell owns a majority interest in through a joint venture. The most recent publicly known equity funding round was in January 2024, when the business raised $300 million at a pre-money valuation of $5 billion. Considering the significant market capitalization accumulation of speculative quantum stocks like D-Wave over the past 18 months, we're curious what Quantinumm could fetch in the public market. Honeywell's eventual plan for this business is to take it public, but the timeline is unclear. Next month, Honeywell management will be participating in two industrial conferences in early September. The announcement signals the upcoming transition from earnings season to conference season, when management teams typically provide intra-quarter updates on how their business is performing. Honeywell shares were modestly higher on Wednesday's weaker stock market. Up Next: Coty reports after Wednesday's closing bell, and Walmart reports before Thursday's opening bell. On the economic data side, Thursday morning brings jobless claims and existing home sales. (See here for a full list of the stocks in Jim Cramer's Charitable Trust.)

Meta Platforms, Inc. (META) CEO Mark Zuckerberg Is 'Unbelievable,' Says Jim Cramer

We recently published . Meta Platforms, Inc. (NASDAQ:META) is one of the stocks Jim Cramer recently discussed. Meta Platforms, Inc. (NASDAQ:META) is the largest social media company in the world. Its shares have gained 28% year-to-date on the back of strong advertisement performance and aggressive AI capital expenditure. Cramer is a fan of the firm's smart glasses, and he also believes that Meta Platforms, Inc. (NASDAQ:META) needs to reshape its communications about AI capital expenditure. He heaped praise on the glasses in his latest comments about the firm: 'But I love our tech so much. I just think our tech is really, I mean our tech is equivalent of you know like Zuckerberg. Meta. I mean he's unbelievable. . .I love the sunglasses, I'm bringing them on my trip. . . they, well you can look at a plant and say what is that? What am I looking at? And it works. . . it tells you exactly what it is.' Bloomua / In a recent appearance, Cramer discussed Meta Platforms, Inc. (NASDAQ:META) in detail. Here is what he said: 'Next best, Meta Platforms. I'm agog at the numbers that Mark Zuckerberg's putting up. The most important one, not even talked about on Wall Street enough, 3.5 billion people use at least one Meta product each day. Come on, that's almost half the planet. That's insane. The company's printing money, which is why it can go into the equivalent of free agency and hire incredible talent. It doesn't even matter. You can't even see it in the margins. While we acknowledge the potential of META as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and have limited downside risk.
