What Cramer is watching Monday — SEC chair speaks, Pioneer CEO says no to Biden
What I am looking at June 27, 2022 Gary Gensler, chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission, on CNBC this morning ... Topics to discuss: crypto, Robinhood (HOOD), protection of investors, ESG (environmental, social and governance). Robinhood upgrade to neutral from sell at Goldman Sachs. Fundamentals are "still very weak," but now trading at $6.5 billion market cap versus its cash position of $6.2 billion and book value of $7 billion. Shares will remain range bound in near term with 19% upside over 12 months. Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo on Mad Money tonight. Update on CHIPS for America Act passage? ( Raimondo has urged Congress to pass the bill, which aims to incentivize investment in U.S. semiconductor manufacturing as a national security issue. ) Pioneer Natural Resources (PXD) CEO Scott Sheffield says "no" to the Biden Administration request to increase oil production. The company is only going to grow at 5% and oil will stay over $100 for a long time, he told investors at JPMorgan conference last week. He said he was a firm believer that $100-$120 oil is not going to cause demand destruction, and that inventory will remain low over the next five years.

LyondellBasell (LYB) — Credit Suisse starts coverage with a sell. Cites end of cycle for basic chemicals. Darden (DRI) stared with a sell at Bank of America.

Analyst sees an increase in closeout opportunities for merchandise in back half of year ... these deals can take three to six months to flow through channel. Goldman Saches upgrades Autozone (AZO) to buy from neutral — defensively positioned in current environment as parts non-discretionary. One of the best performers ever because of its buybacks.
