- CNBC Investing Club's September Monthly Meeting covered all 33 portfolio holdings, with Cramer and Marks highlighting six top picks to buy now and reflecting on the recent Corning exit
- Kimberly Clark leads the buy list — the pending Kenvue acquisition would add scale and lower costs, and the pullback after Wednesday's lowered earnings outlook may be a buying opportunity for the small existing position
- Intel is a buy after a sharp pullback driven by government lockup expiration fears; Trump's posts touting U.S. holdings make a near-term government sale unlikely, and CPU price hikes plus new foundry customers support the recovery thesis
- Nvidia remains an "own-it, don't-trade" pick at roughly 14x fiscal 2028 estimates; the Hugging Face acquisition strengthens its AI ecosystem even as Cramer curbs broader semiconductor enthusiasm
- Broadcom was trimmed as the portfolio's least-favorite tech holding, with Cramer flagging increasingly fierce competition from Nvidia and Marvell as a risk to management's bold forecasts
- Honeywell was openly called "an investment mistake so far" — the remaining position is held only for climate control and security growth, and Cramer warned there can be "no more excuses" without a substantially better next quarter
Why it matters: The monthly review gives CNBC Investing Club subscribers a concrete buy list anchored by Kimberly Clark, Intel, Micron, Meta, Bank of New York, and FedEx, while two notable reversals — trimming Broadcom on Nvidia/Marvell competition and publicly conceding Honeywell has been "a mistake" — flag where conviction is thinning. Cramer's Nvidia commitment at ~14x fiscal 2028 earnings, paired with the broader pivot toward selectivity on AI exposure, shows the portfolio's risk posture tightening even as tech remains the core weighting.
