CNBC Investing Club’s Paulina Ricos and Zeb Fima recently sat down with Jim Cramer to get his thoughts on the forces shaping today’s markets, from geopolitics and oil prices to interest rates, profits, valuations and artificial intelligence. As the market approaches the year’s midpoint, investors have many questions: Are oil prices still a risk? Where are interest rates headed? Is the market too dependent on AI? And, perhaps most importantly, how do you make money in this environment? Jim tackled all that and more in this month’s Investment Club Check-in. Along the way, he shared his views on what investors are getting right (and wrong) and where he sees opportunities in the second half of 2026.
