Also on the tech front -- the EU has charged Meta with antitrust violations. Costco CEO Craig Jelinek joined the show exclusively and offered some eye-opening perspectives on inflation, the consumer and the holiday shopping season. Also in focus: The Senate Banking Committee Chair mulls the idea of a crypto ban, Disney shares slump as the "Avatar" sequel’s box office debut comes in shy of expectations, plus Cramer's skepticism regarding L3Harris' $4.7 billion deal to acquire Aerojet Rocketdyne.
