Jim Cramer names stocks hyped up by retail investors that are set to keep running
"These PARC names are emblematic of how stocks have devolved into a two-track market," he said. "There's the S&P 500, and then there's this handful of stocks that retail investors have anointed and relentlessly taken up, without any real bounds."
Cramer conceded that these stocks pulled back and "took a breather" during Monday's session, but he said they're likely to bounce back. These companies are the best of a group of more trendy names that have caught the attention of a number of retail investors, Cramer said, because they seem to have solid earnings and attention from analysts.
However, he suggested that metric doesn't seem to matter much to buyers, some of whom are "irrational believers in these companies." A number of retail investors are especially interested in stocks related to quantum computing, cryptocurrency and rockets, Cramer continued. He named outfits including Strategy, Oklo, Rocket Lab, Rigetti Computing, QuantumScape, Joby Aviation and Circle Internet.
According to Cramer, investors can pick some of these stocks to own "as long as you don't flood the zone with them." There is money to be made in these names, he continued, but it's important that investors exercise discipline and "take something off the table" when they reap a big gain.
"Aside from occasional pit stops like today, the PARC stocks just keep running," he said. "And until we see a wave of new IPOs creating a supply glut and a ton of insider selling, I wouldn't be surprised if they continue to rally."

Oberoi Realty shares were in focus on Tuesday morning after a massive block trade worth nearly ₹1,961.4 crore took place on the BSE. According to exchange data, about 1,11,31,361 shares of Oberoi Realty changed hands at a price of ₹1,762.05 per share, marking a significant institutional transaction. The deal was executed at a slight discount to the stock's previous close of ₹1,826.20 on Monday, which aligns with earlier reports suggesting a floor price in the ₹1,753–1,762 range, representing a ~4% discount.

CNBC ranks Oregon among most expensive states. Here's why
PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) – CNBC released a list of states where inflation is hitting the hardest — naming Oregon among the most expensive states to live in. According to the report, published July 11, inflation has come down from its post-COVID high; however, cost-of-living remains lofty in some states. 'One of the biggest problems with inflation is that once it has burrowed into an economy, it is very difficult to rid of it. Just when Federal Reserve policymakers thought they might have finally gotten the better of the inflation that gripped the U.S. economy following the pandemic, along came the specter of tariffs,' CNBC explained. Largest skateboard mural in U.S. will be unveiled at Portland Dream Plaza The outlet rated states based on an index of prices for goods and services calculated by the Council for Community and Economic Research while also considering housing affordability in each state. CNBC named Oregon among the most expensive states, citing housing prices as a major factor. 'The cost of housing is chewing up household budgets in the Beaver State. One-third of Oregonian homeowners and renters are paying more than 30% of their household income on housing,' CNBC said. Adults-only pinball space and social club is Vancouver's latest addition The outlet noted, 'life can be expensive in other ways as well in Oregon. A loaf of bread in Portland, Oregon, will cost you 12% more than it would in Portland, Maine. According to MIT's , a living wage for a family of four in Oregon, where two adults hold jobs outside the home, is $31.48 per person. In Alabama, each adult would need to earn only $23.38.' According to CNBC, average home prices in the Portland metro area are over $723,000. Close Thanks for signing up! Watch for us in your inbox. Subscribe Now Washington was also named among the most expensive states. 'Getting your greens in the Evergreen State will cost you some extra green. A bag of frozen sweet peas in Kent goes for about 30% more than it does in Salt Lake City,' CNBC said, adding, 'Housing is also expensive in Washington State. A state advisory commission found last year that a lack of affordable housing has reached 'critical levels' statewide, leading to increased homelessness, housing instability and higher living costs, especially for low- and moderate-income families. The state Commerce Department's Affordable Housing Advisory Board recommended more funding for affordable housing, reducing regulatory hurdles for new construction, and promoting new types of housing, all aimed at building the one million homes the group said are needed over the next 20 years.' According to CNBC, the average home price in Kent, Washington is over $846,000. The most expensive state on the list is California, with other expensive states including Arizona, Louisiana, Texas, Maryland and Massachusetts. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.

CNBC Daily Open: The 15% tariff rate on Japan can feel like a relief only because of hefty ones before
The anchoring effect is one of the sneakiest tools companies use to make us spend money. Here's how it works. Let's say we're shopping for a smartphone manufactured by Dapple, which has just released two new models: a $1,200 model with a big screen and a $900 one that is more compact. The more expensive smartphone will serve as the "anchor" by which we make comparisons, so the $900 model will appear to be value for money — even if it is costly in absolute terms. But we're likely to feel good about choosing it because we've "saved" $300 on our purchase. This scenario seems to be what's happening with the U.S-Japan trade agreement freshly announced late Tuesday stateside. U.S. President Donald Trump said Washington would gain access to Japan's markets for rice and cars — which had been sticking points during negotiations — while the latter would pay 15% tariffs on its exports to America. At first glance, that doesn't sound too positive for Japan. But, in comparison with the 25% tariff Trump slapped on Tokyo earlier this month, it's a big improvement. As Brian Jacobsen, chief economist at Annex Wealth Management, said, "It's a sign of the times that markets would cheer 15% tariffs. A year ago, that level of tariffs would be shocking. Today, we breathe a sigh of relief." That, in essence, is the anchoring effect at play. Trump announces 'massive' trade deal with Japan. Under the agreement, Japan's exports to the U.S. will face a 15% tariff, and the country will "open" its market for cars and rice, Trump said. Japan will reportedly pay 15% tariffs on autos, lower than the universal 25% the U.S. imposed on cars built outside the country. Tariff suspension with China likely to be extended. The U.S. and China's 90-day tariff pause expires on Aug. 12. However, U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said the U.S. will be "working out what is likely an extension." Bessent says Jerome Powell doesn't need to resign. However, Bessent reiterated his call for the Fed Chair to conduct an internal review of the central bank. On the flipside, Mohamed El-Erian, chief economic advisor at Allianz, called on Powell to step down. The S&P 500 ticks up to a fresh record. That's the index's 11th record close in 2025. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 0.4%, but the Nasdaq Composite lost 0.39% as chip stocks slipped. The Stoxx Europe 600 fell 0.41%, led by a sell-off in defense stocks. [PRO] Goldman Sachs is getting worried over the U.S. economy. Economists at the investment bank expect growth to slow, real income to "drag" and inflation to heat up in 2025 — all of which will raise the firm's projected recession risk. How Europe's 'trade bazooka' could be a last resort against Trump's tariffs The European Union appears to be considering whether to deploy its "Anti-Coercion Instrument" — characterized as a "nuclear option" to try to deter trade disputes — as the threat of a 30% tariff on EU imports looms large. The measures could see the EU restrict U.S. suppliers' access to the EU market, excluding them from participation in public tenders in the bloc, as well as putting export and import restrictions on goods and services, and limits on foreign direct investment in the region.
