That’s CNBC’s Jim Cramer summoning his inner Samuel Beckett to talk about the disconnect between equities and the harsh reality of what’s going on in the U.S. economy.
“We’ve had a magnificent V-shaped recovery in the stock market, but the stock market’s not a great reflection of the broader economy anymore,” Cramer said.
The S&P 500 SPX, -0.44% just banged out another record high, as did the Nasdaq Composite COMP, -0.57% . The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA, -0.30% still has a ways to go.
“You don’t need to be a rocket scientist to figure this out,” Cramer said. “Just look the stocks that have brought us to these levels — they’re not the recovery plays. In fact, they are the opposite. They are stocks that tend to do well, because of what we call secular considerations.”
He’s talking about digitization, short hand for “cut out the fat,” as Cramer sees it. It’s not “classic recovery stocks” — industrials or retail or banks — pushing indexes to new highs. Rather, it’s the likes of Apple AAPL, +0.12% , Amazon AMZ, +0.69% and Microsoft MSFT, -0.60% .
“The winners in this market are the companies that are most divorced from the underlying economy,” Cramer said on his “Mad Money” show on Tuesday. “The actual economy is in precarious shape, especially now that the government’s stimulus package has run out and Congress went home for the summer rather than trying to come up with a replacement.” #investment##BullishSentiment#
