On Wednesday’s episode of Mad Money, host Jim Cramer laid out a few themes he believes are influencing the market right now.
“We can… focus on some stories that can make us some money. That’s not crass. That’s our ultimate goal, not the prediction of when the Fed will move or a new Fed governor gets appointed. Let’s not mince words. We’re trying to make money here.”

Cramer highlighted a recent development involving Vietnam. He referenced an earlier statement made by the President on Liberation Day, announcing what sounded like a severe move, a 46% tariff on exports from Vietnam. He noted that hardliners in the White House were convinced that China had deeply entrenched itself in Vietnam’s economy and had taken over much of the country’s commercial activity. However, in a significant turn of events, the actual tariff announced turned out to be much lower, just 20%.
“Here’s the bottom line: Just like you couldn’t ignore the choice of Exxon 38 years ago and all the metaphorical power of a good solid story with a solid dividend, you can’t avoid today’s new stories either. And I promise you, I will keep telling them. Why? Because that’s where the money is.”
