We recently published a list of Was Jim Cramer’s Call Right on These 10 Stocks? In this article, we are going to take a look at where Fox Corporation (NASDAQ:FOX) stands against other stocks that Jim Cramer discussed 12 months ago.
Back then, the show was heavily focused on the biggest media companies and how Jim Cramer ranked each one. He also discussed some of the biggest losers and winners of the post-pandemic stock market.
In the most recent episode of Mad Money, Jim Cramer took a closer look at the current status of the Magnificent Seven stocks, offering insight into both their market positioning and how the White House’s stance seems to be shifting.
“First, I can’t be sure that Trump has changed, but I do believe that he’s never lost sight of the markets and he watches the business channels.”

Cramer emphasized that his analysis is not political, rather, it is a “clear-eyed” assessment of what the president aims to achieve. According to Cramer, Trump is pushing for more jobs and manufacturing within the U.S., even if it means sacrificing access to cheap goods from overseas. Turning his attention to the Magnificent Seven stocks, Cramer said:
“Everybody knows the Magnificent Seven is not so magnificent anymore… But as I said over and over again, you simply can’t count these stocks out.”
He explained that these stocks still hold significant value despite their significant drops from their peak highs. For Cramer, these companies are not to be dismissed lightly. He mentioned that six of them are part of his Charitable Trust, making them especially relevant to his analysis. He noted that some serious damage had been done to the group.
As Cramer continued his commentary, he pointed out that analyst sentiment toward the Magnificent Seven has become more positive after a year of skepticism. However, he highlighted that only Amazon and Nvidia have truly favorable setups at the moment. For the others, it remains to be seen what the future holds. Regardless of their uncertain outlooks, Cramer noted one important factor common to all these companies: as their stock prices fall, they actually become more affordable.
“Their stocks actually truly do get cheaper as they go lower, and that’s more than I can say for many others that have held up well during this exceedingly difficult period.”

Number of Hedge Fund Holders: 70
Fox Corporation (NASDAQ:FOX), known for its news and sports broadcasting assets including Fox News and Fox Sports, was praised by Cramer in that episode for delivering resilient earnings and benefiting from election-year tailwinds. He moved Fox ahead of Disney in his media power rankings at the time:
“I correctly pegged this as the 2nd best of the big four media stocks back in November. Well, when Fox reported its latest quarter the numbers were surprisingly resilient. Nobody expected a great looking quarter because the company’s up against some real difficult comparisons. […] I still see Fox is a good solid Choice especially because the stock hasn’t run too much and has a reasonable valuation, plus we’re now in an election year where Fox News will likely make out like Bandits. […]
I do want to swap Fox for Disney at the top of the rankings with Disney moving to second because it’s already run so much and the Peltz proxy fight is over.”
Fox Corporation (NASDAQ:FOX) has surged by 80.01% since that episode, making Cramer’s bullish stance look exceptionally well-timed.
Cramer recently praised the company’s management. Here’s what he said on the show on the 10th of January:
“What’s interesting is that you told us a long time ago that Fox turned out to be a carve out winner. And I think that a lot of that’s management. They really know what they’re doing.”
