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 Wednesday’s key moments. 1. Stocks turned slightly positive Wednesday after a weak open. Concerns about Mideast tensions have made for a tough start to October. Oil was up for a second straight day after Iran’s missile attack on Israel. We bought more Coterra Energy shares Tuesday as a hedge against geopolitical risk . Before Wednesday’s opening bell, ADP’s monthly read on hiring trends at U.S. companies came in better than expected for September. Wall Street will look to Friday’s government jobs data for confirmation that the labor market remains resilient and what it could mean for future Fed interest rate cuts. 2. Shares of artificial intelligence chipmaker Nvidia rebounded, one day after a rough session for tech. Club name Nvidia announced Wednesday an extension of its partnership with Accenture. The IT consulting firm is creating a new Nvidia business group that will train employees to help companies drive the adoption of the technology using AI agents. Jim Cramer mentioned a similar AI agent strategy at Club holding Salesforce .
