What happened

CNBC's Jim Cramer said Thursday earnings season has revealed investing themes he thinks will produce the market's best buying opportunities.

Why it matters

They help you craft a portfolio of stocks with the wind at their backs, not in their faces — the kind of stocks that you can confidently buy more of when they go down," the "Mad Money" host said.

Common ground

For investors trying to decide what stocks to buy, Cramer said a good place to start is by focusing on broader market themes to narrow the field.

Perspective signals
