Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL), the giant iPhone maker, was discussed toward the end of that older episode as Cramer warned about China weakness potentially impacting the company’s quarterly results. Here’s what Jim Cramer said at the time:

“Do you want to dodge a quarter? You want to dodge it, be my guest. I’m never good enough to know when to get in and get out, so I’m sticking.”

Despite the challenges, Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) has remained resilient over the past year and its stock is up 25.39%.

Making Jim Cramer’s recent list of the best stocks in the last twenty years, he said the following:

“Fourth place: Apple, up more than 14,500% since we went on air. The great thing about Apple is these gains were totally gettable, come on. This was the most obvious story in America for years and years. It’s much harder to own here because it’s under fire from the White House for sourcing most of its merchandise from China for the cell phones. But it’s still a terrific illustration of the fact that you don’t need to be a genius to pick winners in this business.”
