Every weekday, the CNBC Investing Club with Jim Cramer releases the Homestretch — an actionable afternoon update, just in time for the last hour of trading on Wall Street. Mega-cap tech leads: The market is mixed Wednesday in another session of narrow leadership. The mega-cap tech stocks are holding up, with solid gains in Amazon , Apple , Netflix , and Tesla keeping the consumer discretionary, communication services, and tech sectors in positive territory. The financials and the energy sector were among the worst performers. Treasury yields were higher across the curve, with the 10-Year pushing to 4.30%. Expectations that the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates in September have come down slightly in the past week, with the CME FedWatch Tool indicating a roughly 63% probability. That figure will likely change Friday after the release of the May personal consumption expenditures (PCE) price index figures. Amazon joins $2T club: Amazon’s big rally pushed its market capitalization above $2 trillion for the first time. The stock has now rallied roughly 10% since reporting a strong first quarter , which was driven by higher sales from its Amazon Web Services and advertising divisions, as well as strong cost discipline indicated by a reduction in the company’s cost to serve its e-commerce customers. Up next: There will be plenty of headlines after the closing bell. First up, Micron reports earnings and we’ll listen for what management says about demand for high-bandwidth memory, which is tied into the data center market, but also PC and smartphone industries. Jefferies Financial reports as well, giving us a read into second-quarter investment banking activity ahead of the big bank earnings in a few weeks. Speaking of those banks, the results of the Fed’s stress tests come out, too. On Thursday before the bell, Walgreens and McCormick report. Don’t forget: we also have our May Monthly Meeting at noon ET. (See here for a full list of the stocks in Jim Cramer’s Charitable Trust.)
