What happened

We're buying 100 shares of Intel at roughly $103 each.

Why it matters

Following Friday's trade, Jim Cramer's Charitable Trust will own 500 shares of INTC, increasing its weighting in the portfolio to 1.3% from 1.06%.

Common ground

We're nibbling on some more Intel, whose stock was under pressure in a sharp semiconductor selloff.

DISPUTED

The evidence directly contradicts the claim. A web search result states the trust increased ownership to 900 shares, raising the weighting to 2.7% from 2.35%, which differs from the claim's 500 shares and 1.06% to 1.3% weighting.
