Jim Cramer on How to Navigate Wednesday’s Tough Tape: 7 Stocks in Focus

4. Williams-Sonoma, Inc. (NYSE:WSM)

Williams-Sonoma, Inc. (NYSE:WSM) is one of Jim Cramer’s latest stock calls as he shared how to navigate Wednesday’s tough tape. Cramer highlighted the company’s earnings and the following market reaction, as he said:

We did have one report that was solid. It was from Williams-Sonoma, the retailer. It put up terrific numbers, but after a quick down move in pre-market trading, it flew up furiously before pulling back hard in the afternoon. I wouldn’t buy it when it was up 11, but it closed up less than two bucks, and that’s intriguing. That may be something to buy into weakness tomorrow.

Williams-Sonoma, Inc. (NYSE:WSM) sells cookware, kitchen tools, home furnishings, decor, bedding, lighting, rugs, and personalized or custom home products. Cramer was bullish on the company’s stock during the episode aired on December 17, 2025, as he remarked:

How about two I really like right here: Williams-Sonoma and Gap. Their tariff hit is pretty variable and pretty covered. These are all moving targets, but these two companies are firing on all cylinders. Williams-Sonoma is even guiding for a modest year-over-year increase in operating margins at the midpoint despite the tariffs.
