Number of Hedge Fund Holders: 31

When asked about Dow Inc. (NYSE:DOW), Cramer suggested holding on to the stock.

“I don’t want to sell it here, we might be at some sort of trough at this very moment in Dow pricing. So, I think you should hold on to the stock.”

Dow (NYSE:DOW) offers a variety of materials science solutions across different industries through its subsidiaries, offering products including ethylene, propylene, coatings, and adhesives. Discussing the company in December 2024, Cramer said:

“This is a tough one. I think that Jim Fitterling does a great job, but it needed China. It needs pricing to go up, it needs a much stronger economy. It yields 6.29. A lot of people bought it in the ‘50s thinking that it wouldn’t break down through the 5% level. If you don’t have growth and you sell at 21 times earnings, you’re not gonna be able to do anything. At these prices, I’m willing to put a position on but understand that the yield turned out to be not the kind of protection that we thought.”
