“FedEx (FDX) is the Economy,” Says Jim Cramer

We recently published 9 Stocks Jim Cramer Talked About in a Show Where He Advised OpenAI to Slow Down. FedEx Corporation (NYSE:FDX) is one of the stocks Jim Cramer discussed on the show.

Logistics giant FedEx Corporation (NYSE:FDX) made news last week after its CFO, John Dietrich, commented at a Baird industrial conference that it expected to improve profitability in its fiscal second quarter. The CFO revealed that FedEx Corporation (NYSE:FDX) expected adjusted earnings per share to sit at $4.05, which was higher than $4.02 of analyst estimates. Dietrich’s comments sent the shares higher as they assuaged investor worries about a slow holiday season in a year marked by tariffs and inflation. Cramer commented on FedEx Corporation (NYSE:FDX) in the context of investing in retail stocks and cautioned about interest rates:

“Well, I, I’m still very wary of going too much retail until I see better but FedEx was good yesterday.

“Look, the best thing I saw yesterday was Raj, was at FedEx, I thought that was great. Because FedEx is the economy. That made me feel better. . .but let’s just be careful, because we need, we need lower rates.”
