Mad Money w/ Jim Cramer 10/26/26
- Cramer's bear case: a flood of IPOs and secondaries, $148B raised so far this year, drains the money that funds stocks
- Applied Materials down from $739 to $387: buy 25 shares now, add on the pattern, finish in the 200s
- Moderna after a parabolic move: let it come in before earnings, no buying parabolic charts
- Thermo Fisher CEO on a beat-and-raise, BlackBerry's turnaround, and CrowdStrike cyber worries on deck
The call that matters for holders here is supply: Cramer argues the equity and debt markets are nearly tapped out after Meta, Alphabet and SpaceX raisings, with Anthropic's S1 now in line. He stops short of calling a top while pushing for buybacks and takeovers over further deals, favoring staged buying in Applied Materials and patience on Moderna.
American Tower opened up 8.07%, the only move above 4% on the upside across a 385-name board. Bloom Energy is off 11.67%, with Moderna, Infosys, GE Aerospace and AT&T sliding too.

NVDAsouring fast
Moderna is pulling more chatter than the rest of the board combined, and the mood there is bearish even as its pipeline headlines pile up. Nvidia is souring fast, while traders stay split on Meta and Alphabet and keep leaning bullish on the broad index.
Source: RedditModerna's 17.8% drop was the single biggest move at Tuesday's close, and four of the five worst performers were chip and photonics names. Spotify topped the winners.
A 14.31% slide to $205.67 takes roughly $12 billion off an $84.9 billion biotech in a single session, one of the sharpest single-day drops this name has seen. Keep an eye on whether the $240 open gets reclaimed.
Moderna just set a fresh 52-week high at $242.08, 2.36% above the peak it reached on October 15. A year ago the stock traded near $27.
General Motors shed 7.5% into the close, the worst showing across 387 priority names and nearly double the next-biggest decline. GoPro and Clover Health anchored the other end, each up more than 7.5%.
GoPro's 10.3% jump leads the open, with Moderna close behind and the entire downside capped under 3.5%. Across the priority names, the gains are doing all the work this morning.
