Jim Kramer here to share with you a sample of my take on the market from today's

0:06.7

CNBC Investing Club morning meeting.

0:10.0

Let's get into the movers, the earnings reports of the morning that start off with Black

0:13.8

Rock, a big top and bottom line bead, $13.16 EPS versus 1221 expected.

0:20.7

The biggest standout to me, 12% annualized organic

0:23.6

base fee growth. That's an acceleration from the third quarter. It's back-to-back quarters

0:28.4

of double-digit growth. And my standout is the 10% boosted the dividend when they've

0:32.7

been doing 2%. I spoke to Larry Fink this morning. He is the most bullish. I've known him for a very, very long time.

0:39.3

He's most bullish.

0:40.3

That div increase was the high since 2021, as you point out.

Now I do want to point, first of all, the sale was a good one actually. 1120 so it's 20 dollars higher I want to point out that there had been this thesis

1:23.5

yet by the way Calan is just down there the thesis was you know what these are all the

1:26.8

same our state streets the same and Banking New York is the same. They're not. It's very obvious that there's technological superiority here. It's very obvious that they have a greater menu. Very obvious that they're an international company. Very obvious that Larry Fink is now the king, and scale matters. 14 trillion matters.

1:45.0

I really like their infrastructure.

1:46.2

I even ask about Venezuela.
