We recently published a list of Jim Cramer On 9 Stocks That Are Rallying Despite Tariff Worries. In this article, we are going to take a look at where Dutch Bros Inc. (NYSE:BROS) stands against other stocks that Jim Cramer discusses as rallying despite tariff worries.
On Monday, Jim Cramer, the host of Mad Money, told viewers that they should not be too surprised by President Donald Trump’s decision to impose steep tariff hikes, a move Trump had promised during his campaign. Cramer emphasized that just because there were numerous announcements coming from the president does not necessarily mean the world was falling apart. Trump had been clear about his intentions, including putting tariffs on countries like Mexico, Canada, and China.
Cramer addressed the widespread panic that gripped many investors when Trump announced the tariffs. The tariffs were steep: 25% on Mexico, 20% on Canada (with an exception for oil, which would be hit with 10%), and 10% on China. Cramer found it surprising that so many people were caught off guard by these moves, given that they were in line with Trump’s campaign promises.
“Yet that’s all I heard last night and this morning where once again we heard that the world was ending with the market looking like it’s about to fall apart only to rebound when we got an amenable statement from the president of Mexico, Claudia Sheinbaum.”

“Sheinbaum said that she had a good 30-minute conversation with respect and that “It’s about collaboration, coordination without losing sovereignty.” I like that… I know that a month from now, everything could change.”
Cramer further explained that while Mexico does face a $162 billion trade deficit with the U.S., Trump’s focus on halting illegal immigration and combating fentanyl smuggling was still central to his agenda. In Cramer’s view, this initial agreement with Sheinbaum was a victory for Trump, even if it was just a preliminary step. The market, which had been in turmoil before Sheinbaum’s comments, reacted positively to her peace offering. Cramer highlighted that Trump could now claim a win, as the agreement likely involves Mexico purchasing more American goods.
“So here’s the bottom line: Stop panicking when Trump does something you think is crazy, and remember that he promised to do most of this stuff before he was elected, and he still won. Many might say this is a precarious moment. I heard that again and again. I simply say you got what your country voted for, whether you like it or not, really it doesn’t matter. So get used to the turmoil. You don’t have to enjoy it. Remember that in the end, the president sure does.”
