Jim Cramer's Selloff Playbook: Buy the Dip Gradually and Stay Disciplined

November 5, 2025, 11:34 PM EST. CNBC's Jim Cramer advised using a market-wide decline as a buying opportunity, stressing that a day or two of losses doesn't require an all-at-once bet.

Using Tuesday's downswing as an example, he highlighted how the indices rebounded midweek and suggested looking for fundamentally solid names that sold off on broader weakness. He pointed to Shopify and McDonald's as potential buys on weakness, arguing Shopify's decline was market-driven and not due to its business, and that McDonald's benefits from scale in a weak consumer environment. The key takeaway: be disciplined, buy selectively, and stay focused on the next opportunity.

Nat-Gas Falls as US Production Ramps Up, Weather Outlook Mixed

November 5, 2025, 10:48 PM EST. Nat-Gas prices settled lower on Wednesday as US production surged toward a record pace, with output near 110 bcf/day.

Halozyme Therapeutics (HALO) Valuation Update: Is HALO Undervalued After a Strong Rally?

November 5, 2025, 10:26 PM EST. Halozyme Therapeutics has surged about 40% year-to-date, fueling investor interest in its valuation. Our latest read points to a fair value of $74.44, suggesting the stock remains undervalued versus the recent close around $68.05, with potential upside if growth drivers materialize. The catalyst is the ENHANZE subcutaneous delivery platform expanding adoption (e.g., DARZALEX SC in the US and Phesgo for at-home use), which could boost royalty revenues and drive net margin expansion over time. However, risks linger from patent challenges and heightened competition that could affect future growth.

Robinhood earnings: Prediction markets could be a major growth driver

November 5, 2025, 10:24 PM EST. Robinhood reported solid earnings with top- and bottom-line beats and a sharper uptick in net deposits in September.

Dollar Dips From 5-Month High as Stocks Rebound; Fed Path, Shutdowns, and ECB Divergence in Focus

November 5, 2025, 10:14 PM EST. The DXY slipped from a 5.25-month high, finishing down about 0.05% as stocks rebounded and liquidity demand for the dollar eased. The ongoing US government shutdown remains a headwind for growth and could spur further Fed easing bets, though a December cut is not yet certain.

Crude Prices Fall as EIA Inventories Build and Dollar Rises

November 5, 2025, 10:10 PM EST. Crude prices slipped after the EIA reported a surprise build in weekly crude inventories, tempering an earlier rally.

The crude crack spread rose to a multi-week high, signaling refiners' appetite for crude. Support also came from expectations of limited further supply gains from OPEC+ and ongoing supply disruptions in Russia and Venezuela. While geopolitical risk looms, a projected 2026 oversupply and OPEC+'s 2024-25 strategy keep the complex bidirectional near-term, with prices sensitive to macro data and inventories.

First-time Buyers Struggle: All-Cash Bids and High Prices Reshape the Housing Market

November 5, 2025, 9:52 PM EST. First-time buyers are shrinking as housing costs rise and prices remain high. The National Association of Realtors reports that only 21% of buyers in the year ending June 2025 were first-time buyers, about half the 1981-era average of 38%. The typical age of a first-time buyer rose to 40. Meanwhile, the share of homes purchased with all-cash hit a record 26%, signaling competition from buyers with significant housing equity. Median home prices reached a new high in 2024 at $412,500, demanding about $126,700 in annual income to afford a mortgage on that price under a 31% debt-to-income rule. The data point to a bifurcated market: a cash-rich segment and a large group of renters who are cost-burdened, delaying ownership and widening the wealth gap.

Is This the New Dot-Com Bubble? Semiconductors, Nasdaq, and the AI Productivity Cycle

November 5, 2025, 9:48 PM EST. Investors are weighing whether current gains in semiconductors and AI-driven tech justify lofty Nasdaq multiples or echo late-1990s excess. Semiconductor revenue, AI chip demand, and cloud compute have powered a rally, but margins and capex cycles warn of a slower upgrade cycle ahead. The AI productivity cycle can lift stay-at-home productivity, but exuberance may outpace fundamentals. Compare recent froth to the dot-com era: expensive valuations, IPO impatience, and speculative drivers. The catalyst mix-earnings resilience, AI adoption, and supply constraints-still supports upside, yet risks include demand normalization, rate shifts, and competition. Investors should distinguish durable franchises from hype plays, diversify, and monitor sector leadership, breadth, and valuation multiples.

November 5, 2025, 9:42 PM EST. OpenAI CFO Sarah Friar said an IPO is not on the cards in the near term, stressing the company is focused on scaling operations rather than chasing a listing.

The remarks follow a late-October corporate overhaul that converted the for-profit arm into a public benefit corporation and created the OpenAI Foundation holding a 26% stake. With multibillion-dollar data-center deals with Alphabet and Amazon, and a push for government-backed financing guarantees for AI chips, OpenAI is pursuing partnerships and capital investments while seeking to manage financing costs.

Duolingo: High Growth and Premium Margins Face AI-Driven Sentiment Pressure and Limited Upside

November 5, 2025, 9:22 PM EST. Duolingo shows high growth and premium margins, driven by expanding user engagement and monetization. However, AI-driven narratives risk tempering investor sentiment and could cap upside if near-term profits miss expectations.

Yet AI advancements may intensify competition and enable disruptive substitutes, testing margins and growth durability.

Investments in Deliveroo should accelerate growth, albeit with a temporary compression of EBITDA margins. The note coincides with a separate Buy rating from Mizuho Securities and a $255 price target released later in October, underscoring broad positive sentiment on DoorDash's strategic expansion.

November 5, 2025, 8:32 PM EST. CNBC's Jim Cramer praised Uber's latest quarter, noting accelerated revenue growth and improving customer engagement as the positives.

He stressed that Uber is still profitable and that a pullback could offer a favorable entry point for investors.

Weather Risks Underpin Global Coffee Prices as Brazil Drought, Vietnam Typhoon, and Inventory Drawdowns

November 5, 2025, 8:18 PM EST. Coffee futures rose on Wednesday as weather risks across major growing regions supported prices. December arabica finished up about 2% to a 1.5-week high, while January robusta edged higher. Traders cited Minas Gerais rainfall deficits in Brazil and forecasts for Typhoon Kalmaegi to threaten Vietnam's robusta belts. Tightening inventories on the ICE exchange added to the backdrop, with arabica inventories at a 1.75-year low and robusta at a 3.5-month low. Tariff dynamics–an ongoing debate over US duties on Brazilian beans–have also influenced sentiment, even as La Niña signals raise the risk of dry spells in Brazil later this year. Meanwhile, Vietnam's output projections and rising exports point to added supply later in the cycle, keeping the path for prices uncertain.

Stronger India Sugar Output Pressures Global Sugar Prices Lower

November 5, 2025, 8:16 PM EST. NY sugar #11 closed down 0.11 (-0.77%) and ICE white sugar #5 slid 0.70 (-0.17%), with prices retreating to multi-year lows. The slide comes as India, the world's second-largest producer, signals a bigger crop after the ISMA raised its 2025/26 production forecast to 31 MMT from 30 MMT, while trimming ethanol use to 3.4 MMT from 5 MMT – a shift that could unlock more exports. The backdrop includes a firmer Brazil crop outlook and talk of a global sugar surplus. Robust monsoon rainfall in India supports higher cane acreage, though traders note an India export push could constrain prices further. Some analysts see up to 4 MMT of sugar possibly diverted to ethanol or exported, keeping supply ample into 2026/27.

Cocoa Prices Slide on Expectations of a West Africa Bumper Crop

November 5, 2025, 8:14 PM EST. Cocoa prices fell on Wednesday as traders priced in a likely bumper crop from West Africa after farmers in Ivory Coast and Ghana reported favorable growing conditions and drying weather. December ICE NY cocoa (CCZ25) and ICE London cocoa #7 (CAZ25) posted declines of about -3%. The cocoa complex faces demand headwinds from weaker chocolate sales, with Circana data showing NA candy volume down ~-21% and Q3 grindings in Asia and Europe also soft. Still, supply concerns persist as Ivory Coast's main crop harvest begins and BCOM index inclusion could draw passive inflows, supported by shrinking ICE cocoa inventories in US ports. Traders note that exporters' shipments are down from last year, keeping a floor under prices despite the daily slide.

Median pay growth held steady at 4.5% for existing jobs and 6.7% for new roles. Economists warn the pace could falter if tariffs intensify, and the data come from private payrolls during a government shutdown where federal reports are paused.

Bitcoin Bounces Back as Liquidations Subside: Can Momentum Sustain?

November 5, 2025, 7:06 PM EST. Bitcoin rebounded above $103k after briefly slipping below $100k, as the total crypto market cap jumped to about $3.5 trillion with a 3.5% 24-hour gain. A $2 billion liquidations flush cleared leveraged positions and helped form a near-term bottom. The chart looks mixed: RSI at 38 signals oversold conditions, while ADX around 20 hints at a fragile trend. Traders wrestle with the absence of conviction as the market eyes resistance levels. Prediction markets such as Myriad price in a roughly 67% chance of a move to $115k rather than a drop to $85k. With traditional markets uncertain amid a prolonged US government shutdown, the question remains whether the bounce can sustain or fade.

Robinhood set to post stronger-than-expected Q3 as HOOD rides 280% YTD rally on new products

November 5, 2025, 7:04 PM EST. Robinhood (HOOD) is set to report Q3 earnings after the bell, with analysts projecting adjusted EPS of $0.53 on about $1.2 billion in revenue, nearly double the year-ago period. The stock has surged about 280% YTD and joined the S&P 500 in September, fueling optimism around new services such as tokenized stocks in Europe, prediction markets, and crypto staking. Compass Point's Ed Engel notes October trends pacing well above 4Q expectations. Beyond higher options and equities volumes, analysts point to prediction markets as an incremental revenue driver-roughly $20 million in 3Q, up over 100% QoQ-though the upside could be higher as NFL season and event contracts unfold. Crypto revenue is also expected to grow with higher fees and staking, reinforcing HOOD's push to expand wallet share.

Microsoft's $9.7B Iren Deal Highlights AI Infrastructure Opportunity for IREN Stock

November 5, 2025, 7:00 PM EST. Microsoft has wired billions into AI infrastructure, including a new $9.7 billion deal to supply Nvidia GB300 GPUs to IREN over five years, starting 2026. IREN, once a crypto miner, pivoted to neocloud services, renting GPU capacity to enterprises. The deal underscores a broader trend: hyperscalers like Microsoft are racing to expand data-center capacity to fuel AI workloads. Nebius and CoreWeave are earlier players in neocloud, but IREN's tie-up with Microsoft could unlock rapid revenue growth if deployments scale. IREN shares have surged roughly 600% in 2025, reflecting optimism but also volatility. Investors should weigh execution risk, capex intensity, and competitive pressure as the AI infrastructure cycle matures. Still, the MSFT-IREN partnership creates a tangible long-term revenue path for the AI data-center thesis.

Sugar prices retreat as signs of a larger India crop weigh on markets

November 5, 2025, 6:44 PM EST. Sugar prices retreated as signs of a larger Indian crop weigh on markets, with NY sugar #11 and London sugar #5 trading lower to multi-year lows. The ISMA raised its 2025/26 production estimate to 31 MMT, up about 18% year over year, while cutting its ethanol-use forecast to 3.4 MMT, which could boost exports. Bearish momentum is reinforced by Brazil, where Conab lifted the 2025/26 Center-South crop to 45 MMT and chatter of a global sugar surplus persists. India's monsoon was 8% above normal (937.2 mm as of end-Sept), supporting cane plantings, though some traders see mills routing as much as 4 MMT to ethanol or to exports to ease a surplus.

Jamf Holding (JAMF) Valuation After the Latest Rally: Is It Undervalued?

November 5, 2025, 6:42 PM EST. Jamf Holding has surged 15% over the past week and 21% for the month, but its one-year total shareholder return remains about -25%. The rebound has sparked momentum, with 79% gain in the last 90 days, reigniting valuation debate. Two readings stand out: a popular narrative pegs fair value at $13.46, implying mild undervaluation versus the last close of $12.84; a separate SWS DCF model sees fair value at $22.12, suggesting upside the market may be overlooking. Key risks include Apple's native management tools and potential competition from bundled solutions. The question is whether the rally fully prices in growth or if more upside remains.

Deluxe (DLX) Shares Remain in the Red Over Five Years Despite Recent Gains

November 5, 2025, 6:40 PM EST. Deluxe Corporation (NYSE: DLX) has gained about 14% in the last three months, but five-year returns remain unattractive with the stock down around 31%, underperforming the market. Over the same period, the Total Shareholder Return (TSR) sits about -10%, mainly reflecting dividend payments rather than price appreciation. The stock's earnings and revenue have turned the corner recently, with Deluxe becoming profitable within the last five years, suggesting an improving bottom line even as the share price languished. The one-year TSR of roughly 1.7% still trails the market, underscoring the dichotomy between dividends and price movement. Investors should weigh future analysts' earnings forecasts against the known risks, noting several warning signs highlighted in the piece.

Avient Raises Dividend to $0.275, Yield Near 3.5%

November 5, 2025, 6:38 PM EST. Avient Corporation (AVNT) announced a 1.9% dividend increase to $0.275 per share, payable January 7. The modest hike lifts the forward yield to about 3.5%, adding a meaningful dividend stream for investors. The update notes that the last payout absorbed roughly 82% of earnings, while cash flow remained strong, supporting sustainability assumptions. Management projects EPS growth near 96% over the next year, implying a payout ratio around 47% if trends hold-comfortable given the cash generation. The dividend has trended higher since 2015, rising from $0.40 to the latest annual payout of $1.08 (roughly a 10% CAGR). However, the stock may not be an ideal income vehicle; investors should weigh growth and safety alongside the dividend.

November 5, 2025, 6:28 PM EST. McDonald's (MCD) shares climbed as US same-store sales rose 2.5% in the latest quarter, topping Street forecasts of 2.2%, while global comps rose 3.6%.

The company reiterated its focus on value and affordability, along with menu innovation and marketing to drive traffic, including the return of the Snack Wrap and a deal with US franchisees to lower some combo costs. System-wide sales climbed 6%, and the stock rose intraday. Management warned of ongoing pressure on the low-income consumer, noting a bifurcated market and a need for real income growth to sustain demand.

Prediction markets trim odds of Supreme Court backing Trump's tariffs to about 30%

November 5, 2025, 6:26 PM EST. Traders on prediction markets cut the odds that the Supreme Court will back President Donald Trump's tariffs to about 30% after justices signaled skepticism about the administration's sweeping powers under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act. On Kalshi, contracts betting the court would rule in Trump's favor slipped from roughly 50% to 30%, while a similar contract on Polymarket fell to about 30% from over 40%. The pullback followed questions from justices about the legality of the tariffs and the scope of executive authority, reinforcing market view that the justices may curb the administration's trade powers despite earlier wins in lower courts. A ruling remains uncertain as the court continues arguments.

West African Cocoa Crop Optimism Weighs on Prices; BCOM Inflows Loom

November 5, 2025, 6:22 PM EST. December ICE NY cocoa was down about 3.3% and ICE London cocoa off nearly 4% as traders price in a bumper West Africa crop. Ivory Coast reports indicate trees are healthy and beans drying well, while Ghana pods are developing quickly. The outlook is reinforced by Mondelez's note that Ivory Coast's main crop pod count is 7% above the five-year average, suggesting stronger supply this season. Harvests have just begun, and farmers remain optimistic about quality. The potential boost from a January BCOM index inclusion could attract passive inflows, with Peak Trading Research estimating roughly $1.9 billion of cocoa futures buying over the next 80 days. Demand remains a counterweight, with grindings soft in Asia and Europe, and inventories at multi-month lows in US ports.

Forget Market Timing: The Power of Compounding for Long-Term Wealth

November 5, 2025, 6:20 PM EST. Compound interest is the eighth wonder of the world, and the message is simple: rely on compounding and time in the market rather than trying to time it. Long-term investors can turn small, steady gains into meaningful wealth, as shown by the S&P 500 and Nasdaq histories and examples from Larry Fink and Jim Cramer. From Jan 2000 to 2026, an 8% annualized return with dividends beats cash and money markets, especially after factoring in inflation. Understand real returns vs nominal returns: with 2% inflation, cash yields may be negative in real terms. The key takeaway: stay invested, focus on time in the market and the power of compounding to grow wealth.

Rivian Valuation Under Scrutiny: Do Partnership News and DCF Signals Align with True Worth?

November 5, 2025, 6:14 PM EST. Rivian's stock has swung on partnership news and strategy shifts as investors weigh its true value. While the shares rose about 18% over the past year and slipped 8% recent month, valuation remains cautious: a recent check assigns Rivian just 1/6 on undervaluation. The piece walks through a DCF view showing negative free cash flow today but a target intrinsic value around $14.94, implying undervaluation of roughly 16%. It also hints at a P/S perspective since the company is not yet profitable, plus discussions of production targets and strategic partnerships that might unlock upside or add risk. In short: the market is pricing in growth while discounting the path to profitability; investors should study the underlying assumptions and risks.

Tariffs face an uncertain future after Supreme Court hearing: potential market impacts

November 5, 2025, 6:12 PM EST. Markets are bracing for a Supreme Court decision that could reshape tariff policy and ripple through inflation, rates, and the dollar. The hearing on whether the White House can use the International Emergency Economic Powers Act to impose tariffs leaves a wide range of outcomes: a full reversal with refunds, preserved tariffs, or a middle ground. If tariffs are struck down, some sectors could benefit; if upheld, protected industries like steel and aluminum may win. Traders assign low odds to upholding duties (about 26% on Polymarket). A ruling could affect near-term growth, Fed policy and currency moves, depending on the administration's next steps. The U.S. collected about $195 billion in customs duties in fiscal 2025, with potential refunds near $100 billion under consideration.

Ripple, Mastercard, WebBank and Gemini Test RLUSD Stablecoin Settlements on the XRP Ledger

November 5, 2025, 6:10 PM EST. The collaboration aims to use RLUSD, Ripple's US dollar-backed stablecoin, on the XRP Ledger (XRPL) to settle Gemini Credit Card transactions between Mastercard and WebBank. The test would process payments using RLUSD as a bridge currency, potentially making this one of the first regulated U.S. bank settlements with a regulated stablecoin on a public chain. RLUSD has a market cap above $1B, with roughly 80% on Ethereum and 20% on XRPL, whose TVL surpasses $77.7M. Mastercard notes the effort aligns with consumer protections and regulatory compliance while exploring future use cases for stablecoins. Next steps include onboarding RLUSD on XRPL in coming months, subject to regulatory approval. The news follows Ripple's $500M funding round led by Fortress/Citadel, underscoring momentum in the space.

Blend Labs (BLND) at $3.17: Is It an Undervalued Buy Despite a High Beta?

November 5, 2025, 6:08 PM EST. Blend Labs, Inc. (NYSE:BLND) has jumped more than 10% in recent weeks, but the stock remains undervalued versus its intrinsic value of about $4.02 per share. A high beta means price moves tend to exaggerate market swings, offering risk and potential opportunity for patient traders. The latest projections point to 36% earnings growth next year and stronger cash flow, which could support a higher valuation if the rally continues. Yet investors should weigh balance-sheet strength and two risk warnings flagged in the analysis. With the stock trading near $3.17, some analysts suggest it could still offer upside potential if fundamentals materialize and sentiment remains constructive. As always, perform due diligence before committing to a position.

Bitcoin dips below $100K as traders brace for possible bear leg and macro headwinds

November 5, 2025, 6:06 PM EST. Bitcoin slid under $100,000 for a second time on Tuesday, stoking what Coin Bureau's Nic Puckrin calls an almost biblical level of dread, as total crypto liquidations hit about $1.6 billion in 24 hours. The market's pulse was further reflected in CoinMarketCap's Fear and Greed Index, now near extreme fear. Analysts point to a mix of ETF outflows, impaired flows and technical pressure, with Bitcoin trading below its 200-day moving average and traders watching the crucial 365-day MA as a potential line in the sand. Risks include macro shocks and treasuries concerns, while some observers see the sell-off as a temporary pause. Puckrin maintains a longer-term cap around $150,000, expecting volatility to fade into a recovery as liquidity and rate cuts arrive.

Adverse Weather Lifts Coffee Prices on Global Disruptions and Tariff Watch

November 5, 2025, 5:50 PM EST. Coffee futures climbed today as adverse weather in major growing regions spurred supply fears. December arabica (KCZ25) rose about +2.8%, and January ICE robusta (RMF26) gained about +0.5%. Minas Gerais rainfall ran far below normal, and Typhoon Kalmaegi threatens southern Vietnam's robusta crops, underscoring risks to the 2026 crop. ICE arabica inventories hovered near multi-year lows, while ICE robusta inventories fell again, supporting higher prices. Debate over a possible US tariff relief on Brazilian coffee adds a variable to sentiment. A looming La Niña risk had been flagged for dry Brazil weather, even as Vietnam exports and 2025/26 production look firmer. The ICO's latest export data showed a modest year-over-year gain, tempering the rally.

Regeneron: Pipeline Expansions Amid 24% Year Decline Hint at Undervaluation

November 5, 2025, 5:20 PM EST. Regeneron Pharmaceuticals faces mixed sentiment as a rising pipeline and chatter about regulatory approvals meet a 24% share-price drop over the last year. The stock rose about 4.7% in the past month but remains volatile as investors weigh long-term potential against near-term volatility.

Three-Stage BTC Buy: Standard Chartered's Dip Strategy as Bitcoin Dips Below $100K

November 5, 2025, 4:32 PM EST. Standard Chartered's Head of Digital Assets Research, Geoff Kendrick, advises traders to buy Bitcoin in three 25%-25%-50% stages as it recovers from slipping below $100,000. Start by purchasing 25% of your max, then add another 25% if the Friday close stays above $103,000, and deploy the final 50% if/when the Bitcoin-gold ratio rises back above 30. The ratio has fallen to 25 from a January peak of 38.6, while gold has surged about 66.5% this year against BTC's roughly 10.5% gain. Analysts say the latest weakness reflects the record-long U.S. government shutdown draining institutional liquidity, but a swift relief rally is expected once spending resumes, aided by typical end-of-year strength.

Michael Burry Bets $1B Against Nvidia and Palantir, Stirring AI Bubble Debate

November 5, 2025, 4:24 PM EST. Famed for predicting the 2008 crisis, Michael Burry and his Scion Asset Management reportedly bought about $1 billion in put options on Nvidia and AI-adjacent Palantir.

The move fuels chatter of a tech bubble centered on Nvidia, though Burry's track record invites both caution and skepticism. He hinted at bubbles in a recent X post, saying sometimes the best move is not to play. Meanwhile, Nvidia still commands lofty valuations amid AI hype, and Warren Buffett has shifted large sums out of markets. Whether this is a predictive signal or a hedge remains to be seen.

YieldBoost Strategy: Apr 2026 $35 Covered Call on LZB to Target ~17.8% Annualized Yield

November 5, 2025, 4:20 PM EST. An options-based YieldBoost on La-Z-Boy (LZB) proposes selling the April 2026 covered call at the $35 strike, collecting a $2.10 bid premium and turning the 2.8% dividend yield into an approximately 17.8% annualized return if the stock stays below $35. If LZB is called away, investors lock in around an 18.1% gain from this trade plus any dividends received before the call. The approach hinges on current price near $31.41, about 33% trailing volatility, and the understanding that upside beyond $35 is capped. A rise of roughly 11.4% from current levels would trigger a call. Use this with caution and alongside fundamental analysis on dividends and profitability.

Dollar Rises to 5.25-Month High on Strong US Data; Fed Path and Shutdown in Focus

November 5, 2025, 4:18 PM EST.

A Washington Post report on potential bipartisan pace to end the government shutdown added fiscal ambiguity. EUR/USD weakened on continued dollar strength, though eurozone data and ECB divergence kept the pair from collapsing; ECB price pressures look softer but PMI and German factory orders provided limited relief. USD/JPY rose, with the yen under pressure near recent lows.

YieldBoost LLY: Turn 0.6% Dividend Into ~6% With January 2028 Covered Call

November 5, 2025, 4:06 PM EST. Eli Lilly (LLY) holders can boost income by selling the January 2028 covered call at the $1260 strike, collecting a premium around the $112 bid. At current levels the premium annualizes to about 5.3%, adding to the stock's 0.6% dividend for a total of roughly 6% annualized yield if LLY stays below the strike. If the stock is called away, upside is capped, but a move from today's price (~$944) to $1260 implies about a 33% climb and, with dividends received before the call, as much as a 45% return from this level. Note that dividends aren't guaranteed and the upside beyond $1260 would be forfeited. The piece cites a 41% trailing volatility and points to other call ideas on StockOptionsChannel.

Stocks Rebound as ADP Data Eases Growth Worries; Tech Drag Persists

November 5, 2025, 4:04 PM EST. Stocks rebound after Tuesday's session: S&P 500 +0.39%, Dow Jones Industrial Average +0.17%, and Nasdaq 100 +0.58%. Tech weakness persists on softer earnings, with Super Micro Computer down over 8%, though broader risk appetite improves as the ADP private-sector payroll beat expectations. The Treasury outlined next week's refunding; MBA mortgage applications fell and the 30-year fixed rate rose to 6.31%. Markets price roughly a 68% chance of a 25 bp Fed cut in December. Focus shifts to Supreme Court arguments on President Trump's reciprocal tariffs, potentially reshaping tariff policy. Q3 earnings remain robust-about 80% of S&P 500 components beating estimates-yet year-over-year profit gains are cooling.

Volume and upcoming catalysts could determine if PRDO can reclaim the moving average or extend the slide.

Sticker Shock: Kimberly-Clark's Sell-Off May Be an Overreaction to the Kenvue Deal

November 5, 2025, 3:54 PM EST. Kimberly-Clark's stock fell after the company unveiled its plan to acquire Kenvue, carving out a roughly $5.8 billion one-day market hit even as Kenvue rallied. The deal scales Kimberly-Clark into a broader consumer health and wellness platform, uniting Huggies, Tylenol, Kleenex and Listerine into a roughly $32 billion revenue pillar that could sharpen supply-chain leverage, product innovation, and pricing power. The market's concern centers on the near-$49 billion price tag and higher debt, but management has signaled a disciplined post-merger balance sheet, aiming for about 2.0x net leverage. If the integration delivers on its ramp, the move could provide a durable, healthcare-facing growth engine in a consumer-staples backdrop. At current levels, indicators show a P/E of 13.77, a 5.04% dividend yield, and a price target of $129.80, suggesting a potential long-term value catch for patient investors.

The company carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold), with the Insurance – Multi line group ranking in the top quartile, suggesting a mixed near-term outlook while growth remains a focal point.

Novo Nordisk (NYSE:NVO) Valuation: Is the Current Price an Investment Opportunity?

November 5, 2025, 3:46 PM EST. Novo Nordisk shares (NYSE:NVO) have traded lower as valuation and sentiment take the stage. The stock has fallen about 19.1% over the last month and -55% over the last year, though the five-year total return remains solid. The prevailing question: is the current price an opportunity or fully priced for risk? A bull case suggests the stock remains undervalued, with a fair value around $120.72 and a narrative built on growth optionality, pipeline innovation, and potential breakthroughs beyond Wegovy. A SOTP framework indicates much of the pipeline-oral GLP-1, amycretin, NASH candidates-still carries little to no value in current pricing. Key risks include US policy shifts and any slowdown in Wegovy/Ozempic growth. Investors should weigh these factors against the upside if forecasts prove accurate.

November 5, 2025, 3:36 PM EST. Louisiana-Pacific Corp (LPX) sits in the top half of Dividend Channel's stock universe, per DividendRank. The stock moved into oversold territory as the RSI fell to 29.9, signaling momentum could be cooling and a potential entry point for investors.

Top analyst warns of a prisoner's dilemma and an AI wobble before Palantir's selloff

November 5, 2025, 3:32 PM EST. Top investor Tony Yoseloff warned late Oct of a potential prisoner's dilemma and an AI wobble in stocks, cautioning that large AI capex and peer pressure could force a risky buy-and-hold sequence as tech leadership concentrates in a few names. His remarks, recorded for Exchanges: Great Investors, foreshadowed a fragile market psyche just as Palantir posted solid earnings but joined a broader tech-led selloff. The story intensified as Michael Burry revealed a $1.1 billion short against Nvidia and Palantir, and the Magnificent 7 drove a disproportionate share of returns, leaving markets vulnerable to a correction. Palantir's stock, after an initial jump, tumbled, illustrating how even winners can fall when sentiment wobbles.
