iQoncept/iStock via Getty Images As investors continue to search for stocks that can deliver strong returns without trading at stretched valuations, several names in the consumer discretionary sector are standing out. Currently, 11 consumer discretionary stocks combine strong momentum scores with A-rated valuation grades, making them some of the sector's leading "cheap high flyers", companies that have demonstrated impressive price performance while remaining attractively valued. Leading the pack are Traeger, Inc. ( COOK ), Duluth Holdings Inc. ( DLTH ), Genesco Inc. ( GCO ), and Helen of Troy Limited ( HELE ). Each of these companies earns an A+ momentum grade, the highest possible rating, along with an A- valuation grade. Their combination of powerful price trends and attractive valuations places them at the top of the sector ranking. Leslie's, Inc. ( LESL ) follows closely behind with an A+ momentum grade and an A valuation grade, making it one of the strongest overall performers on the list. Chegg, Inc. ( CHGG ) also stands out with an A momentum grade and an A valuation grade, while The Beachbody Company, Inc. ( BODI ) combines an A- momentum grade with an A valuation grade. Among the larger companies featured is Ford Motor Company ( F ), which carries a market capitalization of $56.98 billion, making it the largest stock on the list. Ford earns an A- momentum grade and an A- valuation grade, demonstrating that investors can still find attractive value opportunities among established consumer discretionary names. Rounding out the list are Gold.com, Inc. ( GOLD ), Hilton Grand Vacations Inc. ( HGV ), and Motorcar Parts of America, Inc. ( MPAA ), each of which pairs an A- momentum grade with an A- valuation grade. Momentum grades measure a stock's price performance relative to its peers and range from A+ to F, with A+ representing the strongest momentum. Valuation grades assess how attractively a stock is priced based on its fundamentals, with A+ indicating the m...

Investor sentiment deteriorated sharply, with bearish views surging and optimism fading, according to the latest survey conducted by the American Association of Individual Investors (AAII). The American Association of Individual Investors said in its survey that the bullish camp fell to 30.4% for the week ended June 10, from 36.3% in the prior week. Meanwhile, bearish sentiment jumped to 47.7%, compared to 37.0% last week. Markets began the week on a mixed footing, with technology stocks initially driving gains amid continued optimism around artificial intelligence and strong earnings momentum, even as Treasury yields pushed higher and concerns around elevated valuations persisted. Early strength was supported by a rebound in chipmakers and AI-linked names, though volatility picked up following a sharp selloff in the Nasdaq tied to weakness in semiconductor stocks and rising rate pressures after a strong U.S. payrolls report. As the week progressed, sentiment turned more cautious, with geopolitical tensions in the Middle East intensifying, inflation readings and global economic data presenting a mixed picture, and hedge funds dialing back expectations for Federal Reserve rate cuts. Reports of an unwind in crowded AI trades, rising oil prices, and broader concerns around market positioning and liquidity further weighed on risk appetite, with more than 40% of S&P 500 stocks slipping below their 200-day moving averages. By midweek, equities traded choppily as investors balanced sector rotation signals, including strength in healthcare, against continued pressure on high-flying technology names and elevated macro uncertainty. Toward the end of the period, markets remained volatile, reacting to developments around U.S. strikes on Iran and shifting geopolitical dynamics, alongside ongoing debate around the sustainability of the AI-driven rally and the policy outlook under potential Federal Reserve leadership changes. The benchmark S&P 500 ( SP500 ) and Nasdaq ( COMP:IND )...

An aerial view of the Pentagon, which houses the US Department of Defense headquarters, in Arlington, Virginia, on May 31, 2026. Daniel Slim | Afp | Getty Images Some workers at the Pentagon were told to shelter in place on Thursday after systems in the massive building detected an air quality issue, a Defense Department spokesman said. Employees in corridors 4 through 7, on floors 2 through 5, were told in an email to remain in their offices until the results of air tests are completed, according to an email to Pentagon employees, as reported by MS NOW. Pentagon guards have put on gas masks, according to a person familiar with the situation who told CNBC. A hazardous materials team from the Arlington County, Virginia, Fire Department is "currently operating at the Pentagon in support of [the Pentagon Force Protection Agency's] Hazmat Team during a hazardous materials incident," the department said in a post on X. MS NOW reported that no law enforcement units were at the Pentagon in connection with the incident. "The Pentagon has sophisticated systems to ensure the safety of the building and its occupants," Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell said in a statement. "Those systems have detected an air quality issue necessitating precautionary measures until we determine its significance," Parnell said. "The Department is executing standard protection protocols, including a shelter-in-place order for the affected area. Response teams are in place and ready to support building occupants."

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 Thursday's key moments. 1. Stocks moved higher Thursday as a rebound in semiconductor names helped investors look past escalating tensions between the U.S. and Iran and a hotter-than-expected wholesale prices report . The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose roughly 341 points, or 0.67%, while the S & P 500 and Nasdaq Composite advanced 0.38% and 0.52%, respectively. Earlier in the session, oil prices climbed after President Donald Trump said the U.S. would strike Iran "VERY HARD TONIGHT" and take control of key Iranian oil infrastructure. However, crude pared those gains as chip stocks powered the market higher. Jim said there are effectively "two markets" right now: one focused on inflation and geopolitics, and another centered on tech and the highly anticipated SpaceX IPO. 2. Wall Street analysts started coverage on SpaceX ahead of its highly anticipated debut, with New Street Research assigning a $165 price target and Oppenheimer setting a $190 target. Jim said the offering is likely to have an outsized influence on broader market trading. "How that deal does is going to determine the action, if not just for the next 24 hours, but for maybe the next month," he said. That potential impact is one reason the Club has been raising cash in recent sessions, giving us flexibility to navigate any volatility created by the IPO and the wave of capital raising expected to follow. Jim said he hopes the IPO is "tight as a drum," meaning demand significantly exceeds the available supply of shares. In that scenario, investors who receive smaller allocations may be forced to buy shares in the open market, helping support the stock and offset selling pressure from short-term traders . 3. Club name Honeywell held an investor day on Thursday ahead of its planned breakup into separate aerospace and automation businesses on June 29. Jim remains optimistic abou...

Elon Musk, on the verge of becoming the world's first trillionaire , is whipping up anti-immigration tensions amid ongoing riots in Belfast, Northern Ireland. Following a knife attack in the city on Monday, Musk declared support for Restore Britain, a hard-right populist political party that advocates for large-scale migrant deportation in the UK.

tadamichi/iStock via Getty Images Prometheus Co-CEO Jeff Bezos predicts that artificial intelligence will lead to labor scarcity rather than widespread job losses, ultimately raising the standard of living for workers across the economy. The tech billionaire's optimistic outlook stands in stark contrast to widespread fears about AI-driven unemployment. In an interview with CNBC, Bezos dismissed concerns about AI eliminating jobs, arguing that increased productivity will fundamentally change how people choose to work. "I know there's a lot of concern in general about AI and job loss. I have a very different view. I think that what's actually going to happen is we're going to have labor scarcity as a result," Bezos said. Bezos explained that significant productivity gains from AI will allow workers more flexibility in their employment choices. He suggested that some two-earner households may transition to single-income families, while others who currently work overtime may choose to reduce their hours. "The basket of goods that people can afford on less will be shared," he said. The Prometheus co-CEO drew parallels to transformative inventions throughout history to support his argument. "If I take you back to the plow, they can't help but be shared that way. These inventions drive fundamental progress," Bezos said. He pointed to penicillin, solar cells, and the iPhone as examples of innovations that benefited society broadly rather than remaining exclusive to the wealthy. Bezos emphasized that invention, not companies, is the true driver of job creation. "Companies occasionally create jobs. But what really creates jobs is invention," he said.

(Photo by Jonathan Raa/NurPhoto via Getty Images) Nurphoto | Nurphoto | Getty Images Gold fell to a fresh six-month low on Thursday as investors dump the once-hot trade on growing concern that higher inflation will force the Federal Reserve into possibly raising rates later this year, or at least keep them steady. There are other factors at play as well. August gold futures touched $4,046.20 on Thursday, their lowest level since November. Gold is down 6.3% this week alone, putting it on pace for a second straight weekly loss and its worst week since mid-March, when gold fell 9.62%. It was last down 0.5% to $4,111.10. Fed reversal As a safe-haven asset , investors gravitate towards the yellow metal during times of market uncertainty and in hopes that it will act as a hedge against inflation. But because gold doesn't yield anything, the metal is also especially sensitive to expectations for long-term, real interest rates. The Iran war, now in its fourth month, has fueled inflation by pushing energy and other prices higher . U.S. consumer inflation in May increased at its fastest pace in three years in May, mainly from the surging prices of energy-related products. Together with a stronger-than-expected May jobs reports, expectations have grown that the Fed may need to raise interest rates by the end of the year to slow down price increases. Next week, the Federal Reserve is expected to hold its benchmark lending rate steady at 3.50% to 3.75% during Kevin Warsh's first meeting as Fed chair. A majority of economists in a Reuters poll expect interest rates to remain unchanged this year after many were penciling in multiple rate cuts to start the year. Traders less sanguine, and are currently pricing in a 6...
