Jim Cramer, a renowned market analyst and host, is set to host the January Monthly Meeting for Investing Club subscribers today at noon ET. During this session, Cramer will discuss potential catalysts that could drive the club's portfolio of over 30 stocks in 2025. Among these stocks is Meta Platforms, a favorite in Cramer’s “Magnificent Seven.” As part of his meticulous trading strategy, Cramer waits 45 minutes after sending a trade alert before buying or selling a stock in his charitable trust's portfolio. He also allows a 72-hour window after issuing a trade alert on CNBC TV before executing the trade.
In today's market movement, American Airlines experienced a nearly 6% decline following its fiscal 2025 first-quarter earnings outlook, which did not meet expectations. Conversely, GE Aerospace shares soared over 7% due to better-than-expected profits and revenues, showcasing a positive trend for the company.
Meanwhile, JPMorgan has increased its price target for IBM to $233 per share from $227, anticipating robust AI and software figures in next week's report. Similarly, Bank of America has raised its price target for Meta Platforms to $710 per share, despite no new fundamental reasons for the adjustment.
Wedbush Securities has identified Palantir as a "core winner" in the burgeoning AI sector, predicting substantial gains from the trillions of dollars poised for investment in AI developments over the coming years. In addition, Citi has adjusted its price target for a turbine maker to $437 per share from $361, maintaining a neutral rating and noting a balanced risk-reward scenario.
Abbott Laboratories has also received attention from notable financial institutions. Morgan Stanley, Stifel, and Barclays have all raised their price targets following mixed quarterly results. UBS further emphasized that Abbott Laboratories remains undervalued despite these mixed outcomes.
