We recently published a list of Jim Cramer’s Latest Calls: Top 10 Stocks. In this article, we are going to take a look at where Reddit Inc (NYSE:RDDT) stands against other stocks highlighted in Jim Cramer’s latest calls.
Jim Cramer in a recent program talked about Bitcoin and reminded investors that he has always believed in the cryptocurrency.
“I want to discuss Bitcoin, really. I do—not to the detriment of stocks but in addition to stocks. I come to praise Bitcoin, not buy it. First, let’s dispel the idea that I’ve never believed in Bitcoin. Now, if you search YouTube, you can see that I first bought Bitcoin on September 15, 2020, when it was at just over $10,000.”
Cramer said he likes the idea of Bitcoin being the store of value and said he always recommended investors to allocate 10% of their portfolio to the currency. However, he again urged investors to look to stocks for the rest of their portfolios.
“I heard Fed Chief J. Powell talk about how he believes people are buying Bitcoin as a store of value, like gold, because there’s not much transaction done in Bitcoin. I’ve always endorsed keeping up to 10% of your portfolio in gold as a kind of insurance against the world’s lunacy. But for years now, I’ve also been saying Bitcoin is a fine alternative to gold for that 10% position. Why not?
I think the federal budget deficit is at impossible levels…Sure, you might have been all in on Bitcoin. You know what? Terrific. Me too. But what if I told you there are indeed other ideas hidden in plain sight in the stock market? Ideas that you could have owned with the other 90% of your portfolio that wasn’t Bitcoin.”
Cramer then mentioned a few stocks that have posted dramatic gains since their IPOs to show investors the power of stock investing.
