- 29,000 September jobs eased rate-hike fears; G7 releasing 100 million barrels capped oil's rally
- PepsiCo called uninvestable into Thursday earnings: down 12% this year while Coca-Cola is up 22.5%
- Nvidia compute scarcity framed as the real money-maker behind data center and Starlink demand
- Caller verdicts on Applied Materials, Simon Property Group, Goldman Sachs and Duke Energy at a 3.8% yield
A 4.7% PepsiCo yield loses to the 10-year, so any bounce off Thursday's earnings report is just a trade. Cramer stays long AI compute while telling snack and beer holders the consumer shift is structural.
Five years of the cola wars left a $9,012 gap: $10,000 in Coca-Cola is now $18,689, while the same bet on PepsiCo is worth $9,677, still underwater.

Hern's 99-trade filing is a near-wholesale exit from energy and industrials, with Devon Energy sold down in three separate blocks of $100,001 to $250,000 and a same-size Exxon trim, while the only buys are Oklahoma municipal bonds and defensive names like Coca-Cola and Chubb. A House Republican rotating out of oil into tax-free paper is worth noting as his own party campaigns on a trading ban.

Mad Money w/ Jim Cramer 9/24/26
- Cramer pushes back on index-fund supremacy, calling the absolutist version of it wrong
- Still recommends 50% of savings in an S&P 500 fund as a hedge against your own mistakes
- Argues the S&P holds far fewer than 500 good stocks, so you buy the bad with the good
- Caller questions on portfolio structure for young investors, 529 plans, and retirement vs. mad money
Put half in an index fund as insurance, the other half in individual names you have actually done the homework on. Cramer's case is that an S&P 500 fund gives you 8% to 10% a year and mediocrity alongside the winners, which is why he says it will not make you rich on its own.
