Capital One Financial Corporation (NYSE:COF) is one of the stocks Jim Cramer commented on along with the recent macro rally. While highlighting “important elements” of the rally, Cramer mentioned the stock and said:

“Even better, Capital One, COF, and American Express, the lower and higher end credit card companies, are challenging their old highs. I think they [will] take them out.”

Capital One Financial Corporation (NYSE:COF) provides banking and financial services, including credit cards, loans, deposit accounts, and commercial banking solutions. Cramer noted that he still likes the stock due to the acquisition of Discover during the November 20 episode. The Mad Money host commented:

“I still like Capital One, COF, for its acquisition of Discover, a credit card company that gives them the edge at the register, because it’s cheaper for merchants to use Capital One Discover than Visa or MasterCard. The stock sells at 10 times earnings even as the company has about 160 million cards in circulation. Block, the old Square that we talked to last night, it has around 57 million Cash App users, and it sells for about 25 times earnings. That doesn’t make sense to me.

Sure, Block has a younger client base, but Capital One Discover has got really fabulous scale. Listen, we haven’t had many mergers in the past four years. People forget how bountiful they can be, especially if the stock of the buyer gets knocked down. Look for this trend to take off. If history’s any guide, it can make us a lot of money.”
