Here is what Cramer said about Johnson & Johnson (NYSE:JNJ) on his April 24th appearance on Mad Money:

“Yeah, David, they’re hitting the pharma again, they’re killing healthcare. JNJ, one of the foremost companies of this country, 19 times earnings, down very badly. I don’t think it ends yet because this is a huge trade, out of healthcare, into semis and it’s really interesting because as you go out of a huge part of the market into a very concentrated area, tends not to act, tends not to be a good idea but people are doing it. I say look at the bargains in healthcare, some of the companies are going to come back and you’re going to regret that you sold them.”
