Intro

Carl Quintanilla, Jim Cramer and David Faber started the show by looking at bull market turning 2-years old, with the S&P up more than 60% in that time period. The biggest S&P gainers during this 2-year run include Nvidia, Super Micro and Vistra. The desk also turned to Southwest Airlines, after activist investor Elliott formally called for a special meeting, marking the activist’s first U.S. proxy fight since 2017. Elliott has an 11% stake in the carrier and is seeking the ouster of CEO Bob Jordan. Other topics in the hour included day 1 for new Nike CEO Elliott Hill, Morgan Stanley downgrading Caterpillar to ‘underweight’, and Boeing announcing plans to cut 10% of its global workforce.
