In March, Cramer discussed The Gap, Inc. (NYSE:GAP)’s turnaround strategy in detail:

“We’ve got, GAP up seven. Banana Republic up four. Old Navy up three. These are almost double what people would expect. In some case, GAP, the flagship, more than double. A lot of people say wait a second is it going to make any money . .tariffs, only 11% of its goods are made between Mexico and China. Uh, this man has taken this company, he came on first, he said listen I gotta fix the balance sheet. . . He’s got 2.6 billion in cash, got a 3% yield. This deserves to trade much higher. Somehow it dropped. . . .this thing has cascaded lower for absolutely no reason whatsoever. This is the stock to buy in retail. Alright. I wanna own Costco, which shouldn’t be down. I wanna own TJX, and I wanna own this one.”
