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 Tuesday’s key moments. 1. Stocks were mixed on Tuesday, with the S & P 500 and Dow Jones Industrial Average up and the Nasdaq Composite down slightly, with Big Tech names under pressure. Nvidia shares fell more than 6% after The Information reported that Meta may use Google’s tensor processing units (TPUs) in its data centers starting in 2027. Broadcom , which helps Google design its TPUs, jumped 11% Monday on the news. Jim Cramer said the pullback in Nvidia is a buying opportunity. “If you don’t have any Nvidia, it’s time to buy,” he said. He added investors are also “getting an opportunity to buy Meta” on the possibility the company could save money on chips and see its stock bounce. 2. This “discouraging day” for tech investors shows the value of having a diversified portfolio, Jim said. That’s why the Club favors defensive names like Procter & Gamble . With a new CEO taking over in January, Jim expects changes ahead. “You can’t have a new CEO come in and not have some change from what’s going on,” he said, noting that underperforming units will likely be cut. Procter has been a disappointment lately, but our thesis is that money will move out of high-flying tech stocks and into more profitable, economically resistant companies. That’s why we added to our position on Tuesday. Elsewhere, home improvement retailer Home Depot is down nearly 12% year to date. We used that weakness to add to our position last week. When interest rates fall, the stock will rise. 3. Shares of Nike are up 3% after Dick’s Sporting Goods announced plans to close a slew of Foot Locker locations during its third-quarter earnings on Tuesday. Dick’s acquired Foot Locker in May. “Nike is a buy, off of Dick’s problems,” Jim said. Ed Stack, executive chairman of Dick’s Sporting Goods, told “Squawk on the Street” that the retailer’s relationship with Nike is improving. “They’re moving in the right direction,” he said, citing strong performance from Nike’s running line. “If you take a look at what they did with their running construct, what they did with Pegasus, what they did with Vomero, what they did with Structure, this running concept has done extremely well on the Dick’s side, and where it’s been put into Foot Locker stores, it’s done really well there too.” 4.
