Jim Cramer on Capital One: “Stock Has the Potential to Keep Climbing”

Capital One Financial Corporation (NYSE:COF) is one of the 25 stocks Jim Cramer recently shared insights on. The company has been one of Cramer’s favorites for a while, and he reiterated the sentiment during the episode. He said:

“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.”

Capital One Financial Corporation (NYSE:COF) provides a broad range of financial services, including credit cards, loans, banking products, and advisory solutions, serving individuals, small businesses, and commercial clients. On the June 25 episode of Mad Money, Cramer mentioned the company while discussing the banks, as he said:

“Fifth and finally, and yes, oddly, the banks. It’s been ages since it’s been a leadership group, but interest rates are high, and the banks do well in that environment. They do terrifically when unemployment is low because people rarely default on their desks when they have jobs. On Friday, after the close, we’re going to see the banks’ stress test… the grades. Those are the ones that are administrated by the Fed.

I think it could be still one more positive catalyst for a group that’s been a real winner under President Trump, who obviously favors deregulation. Today, the banks were told that they can have a little more leverage and don’t need to put up as much cash, that’s just incredibly bullish. My favorite is Capital One, which just closed on a key acquisition, Discover Financial. I think it’s, that it will turn its credit card business into an even bigger house.”
