1. Capital One Financial Corporation (NYSE:COF)

Number of Hedge Fund Holders In Q1 2025: 93

Capital One Financial Corporation (NYSE:COF) is a sizable American bank that scored a major win in 2025 after all regulators cleared the firm’s acquisition of Discover Financial. Cramer has discussed the deal several times in 2025. In all his discussions, the CNBC host has remained optimistic about the deal and commented that the new entity can very well take on US payment giants Mastercard and Visa. Capital One Financial Corporation (NYSE:COF)’s shares have gained 22% year-to-date on the back of tailwinds generated by the deal. This time, he commented on whether the former Biden administration would have let the deal go through:

“Now um, we have a Cox deal with Charter. I think that the, no I know at the last minute, the Biden administration would have challenged the Discover-Capital One deal because those are two lower-end credit companies getting together. And they would have I think waited right to the end.”

Cramer also recently discussed Capital One Financial Corporation (NYSE:COF) in the context of other banking giants:

“It also bodes well for the banks, any banks, including Bank of America, Wells Fargo, and my favorite right now is Capital One. Now that Capital One has merged with Discover, its stock has the potential to keep climbing because it’s put together a credit card powerhouse. And I know it’s up a lot, but it can go higher.”
