We’re trimming an industrial and buying another name. Plus, 2 more stocks we’re eyeing

We’re starting the new trading week off with a couple of moves.

Skip NavigationJoin ICJoin ProLivestreamMenuWe are selling 90 shares of Dover at roughly $204. We will also buy 60 shares of Johnson & Johnson at roughly $253. Following the trades, Jim Cramer’s Charitable Trust will own 195 shares of DOV, decreasing its weighting in the portfolio to 1% from about 1.5%. It will also own 400 shares of JNJ, increasing its weighting in the portfolio to about 2.55% from 2.15%. We’re making a couple of moves in the portfolio to start the week. We’re letting go of some Dover shares, consistent with our messaging after a mixed quarter a couple of weeks ago. The company ran into an issue ramping up production for its CO2 refrigeration business while consolidating its manufacturing footprint. It’s a fixable issue, which is why we didn’t want to sell the stock into the initial sell-off on July 23, when shares finished down around $198. Dover has bounced a little since the pullback, and we’re selling to wind down the position. From this sale, we will realize an average gain of about 10% on stock purchased in late 2024. We’ll use the proceeds to pick up shares of Johnson & Johnson into its recent weakness. Shares of the pharmaceutical giant have pulled back from the high $260s in early July to around $252 on Monday as the rotation into healthcare cooled off. Also, there may have been some pressure Thursday after the company trimmed its full-year outlook to reflect two acquisitions. As we explained in the Homestretch that day, this wasn’t a real cut. Rather, it was an accounting adjustment that every healthcare company has to make when completing an acquisition. Beyond these two trades, we are looking to pick up more Intel shares when we are not restricted from trading it. We’re also eying Corning following our upgrade to a buy-equivalent 1 last Thursday.
