We recently published a list of Jim Cramer Recently Talked About These 9 Stocks. In this article, we are going to take a look at where FedEx Corporation (NYSE:FDX) stands against other stocks that Jim Cramer discussed recently.
On Wednesday, Jim Cramer, the host of Mad Money, shared his thoughts on the market turmoil of the week and provided some valuable lessons. He emphasized that no one ever made a profit by panicking. Cramer pointed out how many investors had thrown in the towel during the downturn.
“Yeah, what happens is they get out and then it rallies big like today, and that’s the end. Bye bye. Learn to take the pain. Staying the course is how you make the biggest money.”

Cramer noted how, on Tuesday night, anyone holding stocks felt disheartened and as if they had lost substantial sums. He then pointed out that in contrast, those who were shorting the market, including many hedge funds, went to bed feeling victorious. However, Cramer had a different perspective and highlighted that some of the short-sellers, who had bet against the market just before the high opening on Wednesday, might have felt smart in the moment.
But he quickly reminded viewers that while bulls and bears can make money, he commented that “hogs, those who staged short were pigs, plain and simple. He then went on to say:
“The president likes, no, no, he loves drama. He’s gonna love drama for his whole darn presidency. That’s one constant from his first term.”
Cramer said that investors should not expect any certainty from the White House. Hoping for “certainty” from President Trump, he said, would be “kind of nuts” at this point. His advice to investors was simple: when the noise gets overwhelming, “just turn it off”.
“So let me give you the bottom line on this one of the most exciting days of our lives: I don’t think that things are all that difficult. They’re not COVID difficult. Now I think that you’re dealing with manmade crises. It turns out that one of these manmade crises was easily reversible, as we’ve said over and over again, and told you that when you see stocks in the blast zone rally, it pays to realize that good things, not just bad things can happen too.”

When a caller asked about FedEx Corporation (NYSE:FDX), here’s what Mad Money’s host had to say:
“I don’t like UPS. I think that Raj Subramaniam is doing a fantastic job in a very difficult setting. Obviously, we’ve got all these tariffs. It makes this job 10 times tougher than I know, that we ever thought that it would get to… Stock was up 10% today. I can’t ever tell someone to buy a stock that is up 10%. I do think that FedEx is a very, very good company.”
FedEx (NYSE:FDX) provides a range of services, including transportation, e-commerce solutions, and business services. The services cover express shipping, small-package deliveries, freight, and various business support offerings. Two weeks ago, while Cramer acknowledged the company’s revenues going down recently, he was still bullish on it.
“Yeah… I’m going to be careful in this because I was one of the few people that thought that quarter had something that I really like to see. The revenues went down, okay? Yet the earnings went up. The revenues didn’t, were missed, but the earnings went up. That means if they start getting more sales, that thing could explode higher. I actually am not against holding position in FDX.”
Overall, FDX ranks 5th on our list of stocks that Jim Cramer discussed recently. While we acknowledge the potential of FDX as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns, and doing so within a shorter time frame.
