Summarize this content to 2000 words in 6 paragraphs 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 Thursday’s key moments. U.S. stocks advanced Thursday as Wall Street digested fresh labor market data and additional corporate earnings. Weekly jobless claims hit their highest level since August, renewing hopes that the Federal Reserve will deliver interest rate cuts sooner rather than later. The Dow Jones Industrial Average added 180 points, or nearly 0.5%, and is on track for its seventh consecutive positive day. Jim Cramer noted it’s been a relatively muted week for economic news and Fed pronouncements. “It’s very quiet,” Jim said. Shares of Abbott Laboratories were slightly lower Thursday, a day after we once again added to the portfolio holding on weakness. Although baby formula lawsuits are still an overhang on the stock, Abbott’s formula has been widely approved by medical professionals as life saving-nutrition. This, along with a strong quarterly earnings report in April, keep us upbeat on the medical technology name. GE Healthcare — which we also bought more of Wednesday — continues to battle back from its earnings plunge April 30. Including a more-than-1% advance in Thursday’s session, the stock has now recouped nearly half its earnings-driven losses. While the maker of MRI and X-ray machines delivered a weaker-than-expected quarter last month, we were encouraged to see management maintain its full-year guidance. “I think it’s important to look out a couple years,” Jim said, suggesting demand for GE Healthcare’s products will continue to rise as the firm integrates artificial intelligence into its offerings.
