Jim Cramer Is Focused on These 15 Stocks This Week

2. Walmart Inc. (NYSE:WMT)

Cramer discussed Walmart Inc. (NYSE:WMT) stock’s recent performance and said:

“Now Walmart’s had an amazing ride. It’s up 60% this year. It’s almost in a straight line. This is a big cap company, up 60%. Wait a second, that’s amazing. Now this is the kinda stock where we need to see some sort of pullback before we get too excited.

I think we reached a short term top this week in the stock so I don’t wanna plunge in and just start buying it right now. Even though the great ones like Walmart are going to continue to be good, don’t get me wrong. I bet the numbers will be excellent. Maybe they can even turbocharge the stock from here. But up here for me, you only have my blessing to put a small position on it.”
