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 Thursday’s key moments. 1. The S & P 500 fell nearly 1% on Thursday on uncertainty over ceasefire talks with Iran, erasing gains from the session prior. During Thursday’s Cabinet meeting, President Donald Trump said the moves in oil and the stock market due to the conflict are not as severe as he thought they would be. Not surprisingly, U.S. oil prices were up 4%, following the inverse pattern of oil-up-stocks-down (and vice versa) that we have largely seen since the war began nearly four weeks ago. Jim cautioned investors against making big stock moves while oil is still in control of the market. “That won’t work,” Jim said. On Friday, Jim holds the Club’s March Monthly Meeting at 12 p.m. ET. 2. Jefferies started Wells Fargo as a buy, naming the stock its top pick among four money-center or super-regional banks. With Wells Fargo’s $1.95 trillion asset cap finally gone , analysts said the bank can grow its balance sheet and interest-based income much faster. Jim said investors can buy more shares if Wells falls below $80 per share, less than 1% below its Wednesday close. He chalked up much of Wells Fargo’s success to CEO Charlie Scharf’s leadership. “Scharf has cleaned up all the problems,” Jim said. “Scharf’s always been a really terrific CEO.” 3. TJX stock got some love from Bernstein. Analysts said it is a favored name during periods of economic uncertainty as the off-price retailer behind T.J. Maxx, Marshalls, and HomeGoods offers top quality at affordable prices. New investors may balk at TJX’s premium stock valuation, but Bernstein said it’s worth it. If the stock sharply declines, it could be a chance to buy. “It goes through these swoons every once in a while,” said Jeff Marks, director of portfolio analysis for the Club. “It might be a good opportunity there to pick it up.” 4. Stocks covered in Thursday’s rapid fire at the end of the video were: Jefferies , Nucor , Tyson Foods , and Qualcomm . (Jim Cramer’s Charitable Trust is long WFC, TJX.
