Every weekday the CNBC Investing Club with Jim Cramer holds a Morning Meeting livestream at 10:20 a.m. ET. Here’s a recap of Friday’s key moments. 1. Stocks fall on strong jobs report, high bond yields U.S. equities were mainly lower Friday morning, with the S & P 500 down 0.13% following a stronger-than-expected September jobs report . Hiring surged in the U.S. last month as the economy added 336,000 jobs, the Labor Department reported Friday, a development that could prompt the Federal Reserve to raise interest rates one more time this year. Bond yields soared on the news, pressuring stocks, with that of the 10-year Treasury climbing above 4.8%. But Jim Cramer said selling stocks on an economy that’s putting many people to work, with little wage inflation, makes no sense. 2. Don’t sell Pioneer The Wall Street Journal reported Friday that Exxon Mobil (XOM) is close to buying Club holding Pioneer Natural Resources (PXD) in a deal that could be valued at roughly $60 billion. The report said a deal could happen in the coming days, but cautioned it’s possible there won’t be one. Jim said Friday that a potential sale could be CEO Scott Sheffield’s “final effort to get a great price for Pioneer.” He added: “I do think there will be a deal, so I don’t advise anyone anyone selling the stock.” Shares of Pioneer soared more than 9% Friday, to $235.44 apiece. 3. Stick with Eli Lilly Bank of America on Friday raised its price target on Club name Eli Lilly (LLY) to $700 a share, up from $600, while maintaining a buy rating on the stock. The firm is bullish on shares ahead of diabetes treatment Mounjaro’s likely U.S. approval in the fourth quarter to treat obesity, along with signs of broader insurance reimbursement for related drugs. BofA also added Lilly’s next-generation obesity drugs, including an oral pill, to its model. With the stock up more than 2% Friday, at roughly $553 a share, Jim urged investors not to sell on the premise shares have plenty more room to run. (Jim Cramer’s Charitable Trust is long PXD, LLY.
