Jim Cramer and David Faber led off with a rough start for the markets: Tech stocks in sell-off mode as the 10-year note yield hits a fresh three-month high. Jim and David focused on the mega-cap tech names and whether now is the time to buy. Speaking of tech: At the Code Conference in Los Angeles, Carl Quintanilla highlighted what AMD CEO Lisa Su said at the event about the chip shortage, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella's remarks on the search market being a "complete monopoly" and Netflix Co-CEO Ted Sarandos’ comments on streaming, content and legacy movie studios. The anchors previewed testimony from Fed Chair Powell and Treasury Secretary Yellen ahead of their appearance before a Senate Banking Committee hearing on COVID-19 and the economy. Jim, David and Carl discussed Robinhood CEO Vlad Tenev's op-ed in The Wall Street Journal in which he defended his company's trading platform and its users -- and slammed critics who call its app "gamified." The anchors also reacted to what SEC Chair Gary Gensler told the Code Conference. Also in focus: Ford and Korean partner SK Innovation plan to invest $11.4-billion on electric vehicle factories.
