We recently published a list of 10 Jim Cramer Stocks to Watch This Month. In this article, we are going to take a look at where Energy Transfer LP (NYSE:ET) stands against other stocks that Jim Cramer discusses.
Jim Cramer recently talked about the market selloff and how years of profits are lost within days when panic hits the market:
“They wipe out these gains pretty easily, don’t they? Just like that, the sellers take away months, if not years, of profits because they want to get ahead of a potential recession. And then they swap into the safety stocks that thrive in a slowdown. Welcome to the world of recession preparation, where it doesn’t matter what prices you get on the sales or the buys as long as they get done.”
Cramer said that while he agrees with the broader tariff policies of President Trump, he does not like the “way” he’s implementing them.
“I don’t think that Trump will start going easier on our trading partners just because the Dow’s been eviscerated. He’s not sacrificing our trade policy on a cross of gold — meaning, of course, higher stock prices. Of course, not many investors saw this coming, and that’s incredible to me. And the shock from Trump’s change in attitude has terrified the moneymen — the big moneymen,” Cramer added.

Jim Cramer in a recent program on CNBC recommended investors to buy Energy Transfer LP (NYSE:ET) stock.
“Yes, ET is smart. I mean, look, this is how you buy ET. You know, this is a pipeline company. You buy it by the percentage yield. So, it’s got a 7% yield now. You buy some at 8, you buy some at 9. That’s how you buy these stocks. And I’m going to keep stressing that—this is the way to do it.”
Patient Capital Management stated the following regarding Energy Transfer LP (NYSE:ET) in its Q3 2024 investor letter:
“Energy names disappointed in the quarter following commodity prices lower throughout the period. We took the opportunity to add to our highest conviction ideas. We look to names that have idiosyncratic opportunities and are attractive in a variety of different commodity price environments. Many see risk to energy prices over the next year as supply is expected to outstrip demand by 1.3mb/d even before assuming any incremental OPEC supply comes onto the market. With commodities, consensus is rarely right. We assess companies on through cycle returns and normalized prices. From this perspective, we see a handful of attractive opportunities, including Energy Transfer LP (NYSE:ET), Seadrill (SDRL) and Kosmos (KOS).
Our ownership of Energy Transfer began in 2019 with the belief that the limited supply of new pipelines would provide attractive pricing opportunities over the long-term. At the same time, the company was paying us an attractive dividend (10% yield over the period). So far this investment thesis has largely played out, but we continue to see an attractive long-term setup for the name given our belief that natural gas will be a key ingredient to bridge us to a net carbon neutral world.”
Overall, ET ranks 6th on our list of stocks that Jim Cramer discusses.
