Activist Attention, More Tech Layoffs, Semis Surge 1/23/23

Carl Quintanilla, Jim Cramer and David Faber began the hour by breaking down the markets, with the Dow and S&P aiming to bounce back from their first weekly losses of 2023. Salesforce was one of the key names to watch in early trading, as the stock received a boost on news that Elliott Management has a multi-billion dollar stake in the company. Staying with the tech sector, the anchors then shifted their attention to Spotify, the latest company to announce layoffs, cutting 6% of its global workforce. CEO Daniel Ek said he was “too ambitious in investing ahead of our revenue growth.” Also in the mix: Cramer broke down Barclays’ bullish call on the chip sector, which gave names like QCOM and AMD a lift.
