We recently published a list of Jim Cramer Discusses These 14 Stocks & Zero Day Options. In this article, we are going to take a look at where Anheuser-Busch InBev SA/NV (NYSE:BUD) stands against other stocks that Jim Cramer discusses with insights into Zero Day Options.
In a recent appearance on CNBC’s Squawk on the Street, Jim Cramer commented on how day traders were trading the shares of Wall Street’s favorite AI GPU stock. He recalled a conversation that he had with Vlad Tenev, who’s the CEO of the most popular stock trading platform in the US. Cramer shared that the number of zero-day options that were actually being traded for the stock around the time of its fiscal fourth-quarter earnings release meant that the options, instead of the fundamentals, were driving the share price.
He also marveled at the fact that trading these options came with little risk. According to Cramer: “And what’s amazing is this it actually makes sense! I mean when I was with [Vlad Tenev], you don’t want, time degradations, you can actually put that bet on, this morning. And if it doesn’t work, doesn’t work.” He added: “There are many professionals who are using zero-day through Robinhood because they’ve got the most, they’ve got the cheapest market.”
The CNBC TV show host also commented on how the GPU company needed to “get away from this five clients syndrome.” He believes that if the firm’s only clients are going to be mega-cap technology giants then “We’re all gonna just keep saying, are they ordering? Are they ordering? If you have an order book that includes say, many countries, uh that’d be great.”
Cramer’s co-host David Faber asked him about his recent discussion with Trump advisor Peter Navarro, here’s what Cramer said:
“Okay, so it’s really interesting, really interesting to say that because the larger takeaway was missed. It was meant to be a stop to the Mag 7. It was meant to be, listen, we’re gonna protect you from the honey pot, that so many people, we wake up all the time and we see ‘oh, billion dollar fine by so and so’. . . so Peter thought that it would be welcomed by the tech companies because they’re the ones, they’ve been complaining about it endlessly, but it did not resonate like that. And I think that one of the part is because there was like, oh how about the copper tariff?”
