We recently published a list of Jim Cramer Put These 16 Stocks Under a Microscope. In this article, we are going to take a look at where Oracle Corporation (NYSE:ORCL) stands against other stocks that Jim Cramer discussed.
On Wednesday, Jim Cramer, the host of Mad Money, took to discussing how President Donald Trump’s influence shapes the market’s behavior.
“When you see a grizzly bear in Yellowstone National Park, you call a park ranger because these bears are dangerous… but the grizzlies turn into teddy bears when the rangers come, and you can’t even remember what you were so afraid of…. We can only presume that the president can turn the grizzlies on Wall Street into teddy bears with a stroke of a pen or even just a post on the social media platform he owns. I’ve never ever seen the market bend so readily to the wishes of one man. It’s extraordinary.”

Cramer also addressed the tensions between President Trump and Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell. He highlighted how Powell was painted a “major loser” whose removal seemed inevitable in Trump’s eyes. Cramer noted that the President clarified he had no intention of firing Powell, which eased Wall Street’s concerns. When the name-calling between Trump and Powell stopped, Cramer observed that the stock market surged higher as investors were relieved that the possibility of a constitutional crisis was no longer a threat.
“Now, I want to say something here. I think it is actually, it’s beyond belief how easy it is for this one man to tame a bear, even if it’s a bear that he released on us in the first place.”
Cramer also pointed out that the President’s suggestion of a potential deal with China, while vague, was seen as an improvement and contributed to the market’s upward movement. He noted that for those hoping for higher stock prices, Trump’s actions seemed to have worked.
“Bottom line: That’s how powerful Trump has become on Wall Street. On days like today, it’s helpful, but for most of the year, it’s going the other way. Of course, you never know who he’ll target next. We don’t want any of the big CEOs to be trashed. That could hurt. The market doesn’t care if he goes after law firms or colleges, but going after the Central Bank, different story. Right now, Trump owns Wall Street and only he can decide if that’s going to be a good thing or a bad thing. I think it’s time to go all in on good.”

A caller asked if it was a good time to buy Oracle Corporation (NYSE:ORCL), and Cramer replied:
“Oracle is way beaten down. It’s another one of those stocks that’s being hurt because it’s gotten into the data center. Look, it’s up four today. I never counsel buying a stock up four, but I will say this, Oracle has multiple…. compressed to the point where it’s now an inexpensive stock, and that’s what matters.”
Oracle (NYSE:ORCL) is a technology company that delivers a broad mix of IT solutions designed to support business operations. In early April, Cramer said:
“Oracle and Salesforce peaked back in December; they’re now down almost 30% from their highs. […] The Department of Defence said it would cancel an Oracle contract to modernize the Pentagon’s HR system. There’s some hope that Oracle could recover the contract, but that could be roughly $100 million in annual recurring revenue down the drain. Sure, that’s a rounding error for Oracle, a company that’s expected to bring in more than $57 billion in revenue this year, but it’s a warning sign for the industry.”
Overall, ORCL ranks 6th on our list of stocks that Jim Cramer discussed.
