Jim Cramer on Peloton: “They’re a Little Bit Too Hype Oriented for Me”

Peloton Interactive, Inc. (NASDAQ:PTON) is one of the stocks Jim Cramer put under the microscope. A caller inquired about the company’s potential for growth, noting they hold shares purchased at just under $10. Cramer stated:

“I didn’t really care for the report to be honest. I was kind of thinking, now wait a second, wasn’t this something, a quarter that I thought would be breakout? I also think that they’re a little bit too hype oriented for me, so I’m going to say no. And I like subscription businesses, but I’d rather be in a subscription business that is more like say Spotify or a Costco or Amazon.”
