We recently published a list of Jim Cramer Looked At These 7 Stocks Recently. In this article, we are going to take a look at where Enterprise Products Partners L.P. (NYSE:EPD) stands against other stocks that Jim Cramer recently looked at.
Jim Cramer, host of Mad Money, recently shared his perspective on a few oil service stocks and the impact of President Donald Trump’s pro-drilling agenda. While Trump has rolled out extensive plans aimed at boosting the oil and gas industry, Cramer said that oil service stocks might not see immediate gains as a result.
“The whole oil and gas industry loves a ‘drill, baby, drill’ White House, but doesn’t automatically take up the oil service stocks, or the producers for that matter. After listening to what SLB and HAL had to say over the past week, considering the macro environment and the new geopolitical factors, I think their stocks can work over time, just perhaps not necessarily right now.”

Cramer further elaborated that President Trump’s public statements often feel like a non-stop “lightning round” of buys and sells. Wall Street, he said, enjoys the energy and excitement that comes with Trump’s rapid-fire ideas, even if they don’t always lead to actionable investment opportunities.
“If you’re a trader, Trump’s a dream come true. He generates a huge number of catalysts every time he talks. I don’t think most people should trade too hard unless you do it professionally, but this is heaven on earth for them.”
Cramer also pointed to historical examples, specifically drawing a comparison to President Ronald Reagan’s time in office. He recalled that Reagan’s vision of a 600-ship Navy led to significant profits for defense contractors. However, Cramer noted an important difference between Reagan’s and Trump’s approach: while Reagan’s statements were more measured, Trump’s style is fast-paced and unpredictable. Cramer sees this rapid-fire communication as both a challenge and an opportunity for market participants.
“I think we have to expect that President Trump will say something every day that gets a ton of coverage… We need to monitor these statements, but, look, we can’t expect all of them to generate actionable investing ideas, even if they do produce bullish animal spirits that boost the market.”
