It feels good.

Hotels.com members save up to 20% off at hundreds of thousands of hotels. Hey, I'm Kramer. Welcome to Man Money. Welcome to Kramer America. I'll be right friends. I'm just trying to make you little money. My job is not just to educate, but to teach and entertain. So call me at 1-800-743- CNBC. Tweet me Jim Cramer. So the Big Bad Bill, aka one big beautiful bill has passed the House head of the Senate and all I can say is enough already. We all know it's driven up interest rates. No one seriously claims this plump poker tudinous legislation cuts the deficit. So it's also no surprise that the market didn't do much today with the Dow dipping 1.4% one for 1.4 points, the SB edging down 0.04%, and the Nasdaq actually gaining point to 8%. That's what happens when you go out with a bang of banter and exit whimper of windbags. In fact, this bill's ultimate passage was so obvious even the bond market didn't bother to recoil. Interest rates actually did the unthinkable. They went down. And if anyone in the House even bothered to read the bill instead of just seeing how much their constituents could beg from it, they would have realized that there are many pro growth provisions in here. We only talk about the Salt deductions, Medicaid cuts. But there are things in this bill that should entice businesses to spend fortunes we while families will be able to put money away for newborns. This is a super duper stimulus package. Maybe it'll help our country grow its way out of our balance sheet worries, but maybe not at all. Times like this though, when some huge ugly event is at last over, I like to survey the battlefield and see who actually advanced from our trench through no man's land all the way to the enemy's trench. I I try to imagine it's the first day of the psalm and see who got across. Weirdly, when I looked I was shocked to find really a couple of companies, but really only major. One major company nobody's talking about braved the machine guns, avoided the sheets of steel and cut through line after line of barbed wire to come through unscathed or maybe even stronger. And that company, GE Vernova. That's right. The one time red headed stepchild of the old general election before it was spun off as its own entity. I look, they could have called it GE Power, but I guess somehow in some alternate universe for NOVA sounded better. Hey, I've seen worse naming decisions. Like the guy at Warner Brothers who thought that Max would be a better brand than HBO. Oh, by the way, and WBD's opponent Netflix is doing pretty well too. But everybody knows that I say who cares? G Renova is the unknown soldier, okay? The one that got to the other side and I think is going to keep going and that's what matters. So how the heck did it make it across no man's land? And why am I so confident that it's going to keep going? Okay, G. Vernova is at the heart of every major power trend there is. Except solar, which is lucky because the solar stocks got eviscerated day by the big ugly bill that just passed the house. Consider the trends that this one stock embraces. First, the nation's sagging, aging, ossified, pathetic electric grid which was built for a country that had forgotten how to grow. Well, GE Vernova is trying to fix that. See, they make turbines now. I know it's look, it's spelled T U R B I N E but it's pronounced turbine. These turbines generate electricity from burning natural gas. For a long time our demand for electricity was barely growing, so the utilities didn't feel much pressure to order new equipment. Actually, let's just put it this way, the turbine business, it was disastrous. I mean they were getting killed and it really just amounted to a servicing enterprise. Then one day, Jensen Huang's Nvidia created a semiconductor module that says feed me. Feed me. While it produces knowledge, it's a generative intelligence machine that eats more electricity than anything ever come out of. Silicon Valley. Times 10. When you hear data center, you should be thinking it's synonymous with the turbines needed to keep the lights on. These things are insatiable. Let's hope the little shop of horrors metaphorically go so far. There's a very good chance that the hyperscaler data centers, Google, Amazon, Metta, Core Weave, power guzzlers all get their electricity by burning natural gas with GE Vernova's vast engines. And in the future, they might be buying from nuclear plants that's also, of course, run on this company's technology. So how do we not know of this gem of a business before? Simple, because it almost didn't happen. GE's power division was a cast off when the brilliant Larry Culp took over. CEO decided to break up the entire company. In my many meetings with Larry, he'd always promised me that one day this division would stand on its own. I always chided him that he should just cut his losses. Visionary that I am. And then the data center came along. So their nation's stagnant demand for for electricity started going at a 5% clip. Oh my. And so of course, to GE Vernova, which had been living hand to mouth and now has more orders than it can handle. It's just an incredible transformation. Yes, Larry got the last laugh. That's trend number one. Trend number two, these monsters can cost up to $50 million. If you have a trade surplus with our great nation, you would want to make nice with our government. You used to do it by picking up some planes from Boeing. Even the smaller 737 Max goes for about 55 mil. Yeah, a throw. Right now, the world is shaking at President Trump's edict that our trading partners better pay up or suffer the consequences. Now, if you don't need planes, you got something else you can buy. GE Vernova turbines. Given that the President wants these countries to build data centers, it's an easy call to order some turbines. That way they can say that they're shrinking the trade surplus. Toronto. Two trends, okay? Not enough for you. Did you see the other day the tv? Yes. The old Tennessee Valley Authority submitted the nation's first construction permit application to build a small modular nuclear reactor. And who has that contract? The only company in America that can build nuclear power at Scale G Renova any nuclear has been red hot in recent years. The people who buy quantum computing stocks and flying car stocks and pounds here have also GameStop have bought anything nuclear to to the point where they're practically meme stocks. There's just one problem. The meme nuclear stocks are so overvalued that is painful. The house of Nachi Vernova. It's a real company. How refreshing. That was easy in the old days when I was a hedge fund manager and I saw a stock like this I wouldn't even bother examining. I might might not even care that it's going to do 36 to 37 billion in revenue, 2.2 to $2.5 billion in free cash flow. I just try to figure out how big the opportunity opportunity might be in them. Work backwards I think the nat gas for data center nuclear opportunities are some of the biggest out there and G Vernova dominates both of them. So the tariff avoidance theme, they got that too. I was a skeptic about nuclear power because the CEO Scott Strange told me I was too bullish about it when I interviewed him back when G Renova came public. Scott's not dissuaded me anymore. The opportunities now. And after I traced out the opportunity I put a price tag on it. That's what I would do with the hedge fund. Then I look at the company's current market capitalization and puzzle over what was it really worth. How about that disparity? As I said yesterday when Jeff Marks and I ran the CNBC Investing Club monthly meeting, which I wish you would listen to, the possibility of what could go right at GE Vernova is so incredible that the stock's value just can't measure up to the opportunity. The bottom line. No wonder when I surveyed the battlefield, I could only find one soldier left standing that I like. One that fixes trade surpluses, restarts a new nuclear trend and solves the conundrum of powering the data center and fast firing up the growing electric grid. Gevernova is made for this moment. This is the one big stock that survived the making and passing at least in the house of that big beautiful bill. And I bet it keeps winning. Mark in Iowa. Mark.
