Hey, it's Kramer, and this is my morning take on the market from today's CNBC Investing Club

0:06.3

morning meeting.

0:08.2

Let's look at the markets.

0:09.3

We are seeing a little bit of softness this morning, some weakness across some tech names,

0:15.4

Oracle, which will get into a minute.

0:16.9

Treasury yields little change.

0:18.1

CPI is tomorrow, so a big event there. Oil, slightly higher today.

0:24.7

You have some OPEC inventories showing some tight inventories there. Jim, any thoughts on the market today?

0:30.7

Yeah, I just think Oracle, we have to talk right up front. Oracle is just one of the greatest overreactions I've ever seen.

0:37.0

I mean, it's entirely possible that they've really wiped out the whole value of the CERner acquisition, which is really what people are focused on. And I don't know why there's so many headlines about a slowing of the cloud. When I can tell you, if we were sitting down here with Saffircats, she'd laugh about that and how strong it is. This is all about a recognition that they bought this healthcare company

0:55.0

and they've not been able to make it work. CERner goes up against Epic. Epic is a private company

1:00.7

genius operation. It hasn't worked out so far. They are doing a change in their accounting,

1:08.0

make it so it's more ratable, which means that you can't see how much they're really doing. But all I can tell you, Jeff, is that anyone who thinks that this is because of a sled on the cloud is really a fool. And for a stock to be down 17 right now with Saffir Katz and Larry Ellison, I'm just going to say, overreaction. I know the stock's going to be down at the end of the day. That's the way these things play out, but we've been there. This is a buy. Yeah, expectations certainly elevated into earnings as well.

1:34.4

You had the stock trading around not far from an all-time high close heading into earnings.

1:39.3

But yeah, I'm with you, Jim, with the stock down 13 and a half percent today. Really, if you parse through

1:44.7

management's commentary, I thought it was incredibly bullish. You're talking about demand for

1:50.8

exceeding supply. Really, the only limiting factor is they can't build enough data centers

1:56.9

just to keep up. So, yeah, it does feel like someone wants to sell it down 20. It's like you get an order. I used to see this in trading desk, which is, look, I got it, I had 20 million shares Oracle, sell it down 20 because you're so angry, you know, you're just really upset, it's very emotional. You got, you know, sell it down 20. I don't want it on my books.

2:17.9

I want it sold. I want it sold by the time I go to lunch. That's the kind of order that you're

2:21.8

doing with right now. It's a down 20 order. I would say that you buy some here and buy some

2:26.4

down 20 because that's what this seller is doing to this stock.

2:32.0

Start your day with my outlook on the market every morning.
