Episode Unloved Stocks to Buy with CNBC’s Jimmy Lebenthal

0:00 1:00:45

“Patience is a virtue—sometimes the best trade is the one you don’t rush.” On this episode of In the Money with Amber Kanwar, Jimmy Lebenthal, Chief Equity Strategist & Partner at Cerity Partners, makes the case for looking where others aren’t. He explains why patience still wins, how to navigate “parabolic” markets, and why he’s still putting fresh money to work in names like Cisco (CSCO)—a stock he’s owned for over a decade that’s now finding new life in the AI buildout. He also shares lessons from his new book, How to Ride the Subway: Getting Around on Wall Street and in Life, including why sometimes the best strategy is simply staying on the train.

He also dives into the most debated corner of the market right now: software. Lebenthal explains why he’s actively adding to names like Microsoft (MSFT), Adobe (ADBE), Salesforce (CRM), and ServiceNow (NOW), arguing the market may have overreacted to AI disruption fears and created opportunity in high-quality businesses with strong cash flow and buyback support.

In the Mailbag, Lebenthal breaks down a wide range of stocks and sectors, including why he’s avoiding Lululemon (LULU) despite the selloff, his outlook on Disney (DIS) as a potential turnaround story, and how he’s thinking about banks—comparing Citigroup (C) and JPMorgan (JPM). He also weighs in on Dell (DELL) after its recent surge and shares his broader view on energy markets and global supply dynamics.

In Pro Picks, Lebenthal sticks with high-conviction ideas. He highlights Cisco (CSCO) as a long-term compounder tied to AI infrastructure demand, Cheniere Energy (LNG) as a key beneficiary of the global LNG expansion, and AbbVie (ABBV) as an attractive opportunity in a lagging healthcare sector with strong cash flows, a growing pipeline, and a compelling valuation.
