Every weekday, the CNBC Investing Club with Jim Cramer releases the Homestretch — an actionable afternoon update, just in time for the last hour of trading on Wall Street. Market moves: Stocks were mixed Tuesday as third-quarter earnings reports continued to roll in. So far, the results have been generally solid, with revenue tracking 2% above expectations and earnings 7.2% above expectations, according to market data provider LSEG. Still, the market moved off its best levels of Tuesday’s session after President Donald Trump said his upcoming meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping was not guaranteed, a sign that stocks remain sensitive to trade headlines. Sky-high demand: Aerospace and defense company RTX Corp posted blowout quarterly earnings Tuesday, an encouraging sign for a key division within Club name Honeywell . RTX hiked its full-year guidance and delivered solid revenue growth in its aerospace and avionics division, up 8% from a year earlier. Investors can see RTX’s print as a positive readthrough for Honeywell’s aerospace business — our favorite among the three divisions that are set to split into publicly traded entities by the end of 2026.
