- Jim Cramer reveals 3 stocks to buy — plus, why he is not selling the Intel plunge
The Nasdaq fell more than 2% on Friday as post-earnings declines in Amazon and Intel weighed, and is down 4.7% for October so far. Jim Cramer said he cannot justify selling Intel after its 28% drop on Friday, admitting he used poor judgment on the recent secondary offering, which CEO Lip-Bu Tan bought heavily into; Intel stock is still up nearly 80% year to date. He sees Amazon as a buy because things there are much better than they appear, and considers Starbucks a buy for its higher growth, with its drop of more than 2% possibly reflecting profit-taking after a strong run. FedEx Freight (FDXF) rose more than 13% after strong earnings, and Cramer views FedEx as a buy, though he may not chase its nearly 3% gain on Friday.

- Republicans Suffer Heavy Defeat: Could the Diesel Oil Deal Already Be in Ruins While Trump Is Still in Office?
Financial Times sources say two of three Russian diesel tankers bound for the U.S. have diverted, raising doubts about the U.S.-Russia diesel deal. After the midterms, bipartisan lawmakers opposed lifting sanctions, Representative Gregory Meeks introduced a bill to block corrupt oil deals with Russia, and New Jersey Governor Mikie Sherrill warned that docking Russian tankers violates federal law. A third tanker is due in New York this weekend but could also divert. Yet U.S. fuel supplies have fallen below 100 million barrels, the lowest in over two decades, and Russian supply could ease price pressure; even if the bill passes, the President could veto it, and two-thirds of votes would be needed to override. Bloomberg, citing a source close to the Kremlin, says Russia could win more concessions, while The Conversation notes Trump, in office until 2028, retains broad foreign-policy powers.
- Barkin sees interest rate hikes ahead, but at a gradual pace
Richmond Fed President Thomas Barkin said Thursday that the central bank will need to raise interest rates further, though he is unsure by how much or at what pace. In a CNBC interview at the Richmond Fed's 2026 CFO Summit, he voiced concern over inflation, saying unemployment is near record lows while inflation is too high. He said a gradual pace still makes sense given the uncertainty, and called inflation the most important risk right now. The Fed's benchmark rate is held at 3.75%–4%, and markets price a better than 80% chance of a December hike, according to CME Group's FedWatch tool.
- Silver prices today, Thursday, November 5, 2026: Silver prices lift following midterms
December silver futures opened at $52.32 per ounce on Thursday, up 0.1% from Wednesday's close, and reached $52.98 by 9:25 a.m. ET. After the midterm elections, silver, gold and bitcoin rallied after a difficult 2026: gold futures jumped more than 3% Wednesday back above $4,000 an ounce, bitcoin rose nearly 4% back above $80,000, and silver gained about 5%. Even so, through Tuesday's close gold was about 26% below its Jan. 29 record, bitcoin 38% below its October 2025 peak, and silver 57% under its January high. Silver is down 1.7% over one week and 15% over one month, but up 10% from one year ago.
- Google Joins The Surge Of Tech Layoffs
Buyouts are spreading from Microsoft to Oracle and now Google, and layoffs and buyouts across the biggest tech companies have topped 100,000 this year. Microsoft offered buyouts to 60,000 employees, while Oracle cut 21,000 people, about 13% of its staff. According to Reuters, Google has started “voluntary exit packages,” though it remains unclear whether they will stay voluntary. The author warns that if these firms are early signs, the US jobless rate could rise quickly: with a US workforce of 163 million people per the BLS, losing 1.6 million jobs would raise the jobless rate by 1%.
- Democratic sweep puts crypto on defensive in Washington
Democrats' sweep of Congress is likely to reset the political calculus for crypto, pushing the Clarity Act to the back burner and setting up a more adversarial approach in Washington. Critics such as Sen. Sherrod Brown returning to the Senate, and Sen. Elizabeth Warren keeping influence over financial policy, mean the new Congress may focus on scrutinizing President Trump's personal crypto dealings. TD Cowen's Jaret Seiberg said Clarity is unlikely to advance over the next two years. The crypto industry spent more than $200 million on the midterms, and according to Stand With Crypto, 19 pro-crypto candidates won Senate races versus eight anti-crypto candidates, while 228 pro-crypto House candidates were elected versus 106.
- I've Been Writing About Disney Stock for 30 Years. Here's Why My Conviction Has Never Been Higher.
The author argues Disney's business is performing much better than its flat share price, which is barely higher this year and has lost roughly a third of its value over five years. Disney had nine of the 11 most visited theme parks worldwide in the TEA Global Experiences Index, and five U.S. parks each drew more than 10 million visitors in 2025. Disney was responsible for all six U.S. films that topped $1 billion at the box office in 2024 and 2025, and Disney+, Hulu and ESPN have been collectively profitable for two years. The ad-free Disney+ price rose from $6.99 to $21.49 a month, and Disney will add four more cruise ships over the next four years. The shares trade at less than 16 times analysts' fiscal 2027 earnings estimates, and the author notes risks including a softening economy, a new CEO and some box-office duds.
