Jim Cramer Notes That the Charitable Trust Holds On to Home Depot In Case the Rates Get Cut

The Home Depot, Inc. (NYSE:HD) made our Mad Money recap, as Jim Cramer shared his take on the stock and highlighted resilient consumer spending despite the Iran conflict. Cramer explained why the Charitable Trust is holding on to the stock, as he remarked:

The only miss is the home-related stores and… dollar emporiums. The housing-related retail stocks are simply unable to move up because they’re tied to home sales, and the housing market’s frozen. Until interest rates come down, I don’t expect anything to bail out the stocks of Home Depot, RH, or Best Buy, for that matter. That said, if the war really winds down, and Fed Chief-in-waiting Kevin Warsh genuinely tries to cut interest rates, they could be winners. That’s why we hold on to Home Depot for the Charitable Trust.

Home Depot, big position for my Charitable Trust. It’s been problematic, but we have it on because rates are going to get cut, and you have to own the stock when rates get cut.
