Summary

Carl Quintanilla, Jim Cramer and David Faber explored what to make of the moves in stocks, oil prices and bonds — ahead of President Trump's Tuesday 8pm Eastern time deadline for Iran to strike a peace deal. On the AI front: Anthropic says its revenue run rate surpassed $30 billion, while Broadcom shares jumped on new AI chip-related deals with Google and Anthropic. The anchors reacted to shares of UnitedHealth, Humana and other health insurers rallying after the Trump Administration announced a larger-than-expected Medicare Advantage payment rate for 2027. Also in focus: Jim's take on Apple shares under pressure, SpaceX IPO plans, Bill Ackman's Pershing Square offers to buy Universal Music Group, what's boosting Paramount's stock.
