- CNBC’s Jim Cramer on Friday walked investors through next week’s market action, honing in on a keynote speech from Nvidia’s Jensen Huang and earnings from retail names including Target, Ralph Lauren and TJX.

- “And even with this late night credit rating downgrade of the U.S. debt – which is very quizzical to me – I think we’re containing the downside of the economy, and that means no recession, which tells me the negativity may be out of synch with the reality,” he said.
