In his previous comments about Shake Shack Inc. (NYSE:SHAK), Cramer was exasperated with the negativity surrounding the firm. This time, he praised the firm’s CEO and continued to oppose the detractors:

“[On whether he though SHAK’s expensive]Nooo, you know that’s, no one. I mean I read these things and I just say, okay look, look whoever it is don’t they know that this is Rob Lynch. Now, Rob Lynch who saved PapaJohn’s, has he spent any time with Rob? I mean Rob Lynch has turned this Shake Shack around. He has huge ambitions. It’s only a 5.8 billion dollar company. And everyone knew it was undermanaged. I think he’s crushing it. So is it overvalued? Against what? This guy’s doing a remarkable job. Pay attention to the CEO. Look at the CEO. This is not some guy who just walked in and said you know what, how do I make a milkshake? You have Lynch, one of the greatest managers in restaurants.”
