Phillips 66 (NYSE:PSX) is an energy manufacturing and logistics company engaged in refining, chemicals, midstream operations, marketing, and renewable fuels. In a May episode, Cramer said that he “would be a buyer” of the stock. He stated:

“Alright, let’s just view it as an investment situation. It’s got a 4.4% yield. We’re running short of refiners. I think that the stock has been overly punished. It’s been going down as if it’s an oil stock. It is not an oil stock, it’s a refiner, and I would be a buyer of PSX, and I’ve been waiting to say that for some time, but it’s down enough that I think it’s time.”

The stock is up nearly 23% since the above comment.
