We recently compiled a list of the Jim Cramer Shed Light on These 10 Stocks. In this article, we are going to take a look at where Serve Robotics Inc. (NASDAQ:SERV) stands against the other stocks Jim Cramer recently discussed.
Jim Cramer, the host of Mad Money, pointed out that ongoing uncertainty around tariff policies is likely to continue influencing market movements. He highlighted that stocks saw a decline on Wednesday after President Donald Trump raised the issue of tariffs during a cabinet meeting.
“We were flying high… when President Trump started talking in a televised cabinet meeting and it didn’t take long for him to be, to talk about his obsession: tariffs.”

Trump has long been determined to address trade imbalances, often pointing out that many countries have trade surpluses with the United States, a situation he intends to change. Cramer noted that this tariff talk has become such a recurring theme that it is beginning to wear on investors.
He expressed concern that the constant mention of tariffs, especially in the presence of a camera, is increasingly shaping the market environment. As a citizen, Cramer said he has no issue with tariffs if they are used to protect against unfair trade practices.
“But as someone who cares about the stock market, I can tell you that we’re entering a new, more mercurial world where we have to start worrying about the president’s public appearances because we don’t know which country, which continent, which ally he is going to attack next.”
Cramer also emphasized that the unpredictability of tariff discussions has overshadowed other major economic concerns. For example, the bond market, which had dominated financial conversations for years, has taken a back seat due to the overwhelming focus on tariffs. He pointed to a significant drop in long-term interest rates, noting that the 10-year treasury bond, which had seemed on track to approach 5%, has now fallen to 4.25%. He commented that the change in the bond market is striking considering that the U.S. government has continued to hold large bond auctions. He added:
“Long-term interest rates have plummeted. The 10-year treasury, which not that long goes seemed to be headed toward 5%, is now slouching toward 4%, finishing at 4.25% today. That’s insane, especially when you remember that we have kept, keep having gigantic bond auctions… A couple months ago, if we got this kind of action, the bond market stocks would’ve exploded higher, probably making new all-time high after all-time high after all-time high.”

Talking about Serve Robotics Inc. (NASDAQ:SERV), a caller expressed that they are ready to take some risks as they are in their 20s. Here’s what Cramer said in response:
“Okay, that is a very risky stock. I would normally advise people to either do Tesla, I know that’s become a very risky stock, or NVIDIA, which just reported a nice quarter. But because of your age and how you feel about it, I’m gonna greenlight you but only for someone your age.”
Serve Robotics Inc. (NASDAQ:SERV) designs, develops, and operates eco-friendly robots that provide food delivery services in public areas across the United States, with an emphasis on autonomous delivery robots. Even when in January Cramer was asked about the company, he suggested NVDA instead.
“Yeah. Okay, now this is one of these, look, we are going to revert to what, if you want robotics, here’s what you’re going to get from me. You’re gonna get Nvidia because they’re the king of robots. That’s it. Nobody else.”
