What happened

Every weekday, the CNBC Investing Club with Jim Cramer holds a "Morning Meeting" livestream at 10:20 a.m.

Why it matters

Stocks were mixed Monday as investors rotated back into software names while many AI hardware and data center stocks pulled back.

Common ground

"Software is reigning supreme, and hardware is selling down," Jim said.

Perspective signals

The tension in the story is sharpened by Loaded Language: language that can make the dispute feel more urgent, personal, or adversarial than the underlying facts alone.
