5. The Kroger Co. (NYSE:KR)

The Kroger Co. (NYSE:KR) was among Jim Cramer’s stock calls on Mad Money, as he highlighted worthy space players and reviewed several of this year’s IPOs. Cramer noted the problems faced by the company, as he said:

Finally, before the open Thursday, we have two companies that I think are struggling: Kroger and Accenture. Kroger, like every supermarket, is getting hit with higher bills and has to pass some costs on to the consumer, but it’s too difficult to pass on all of them, so its margins will be shrinking.

The Kroger Co. (NYSE:KR) operates grocery and general merchandise stores that offer food, pharmacy services, household items, and fuel. Jensen Investment Management stated the following regarding The Kroger Co. (NYSE:KR) in its Q1 2026 investor letter:

The Kroger Co. (NYSE:KR) was the Portfolio’s third largest contributor to performance during the quarter. With approximately 2,700 stores located in 35 states and the District of Columbia, KR is one of the largest traditional supermarket operators in the U.S. We believe KR’s stock outperformed as the company reported solid margin and earnings improvement along with share gains during its most recent quarter. Like KEYS and ROST, KR remains a core holding in the Portfolio due to its economies of scale versus smaller competitors, the non-cyclical nature of demand for its products, and the prime location of many of its stores, which represents a difficult to replicate entry barrier.
