Capital One Financial Corporation (NYSE:COF) popped up on Cramer’s and Wall Street’s radar again earlier this year. This is what Cramer said on the 24^th of January:

“Now let me tell you a funny thing here. Capital One is actually my favorite. I put it in the bullpen so to speak. I’m thinking about buying it because of the Discover, you know, because of this Discover merger, which is gonna be so bullish, and because I don’t think there will be usury fees. So I want to go against what the president’s musing was right there and buy Capital One, COF, a really well run, really, really well run credit card, credit card company.”
