Starwood Property Trust, Inc. (NYSE:STWD) is one of the stocks that Jim Cramer shared his take on. A caller asked if the time has come to put the stock on their watchlist, and Cramer replied:
“Okay, this is a tough one for me. I think the world of Barry Sternlicht. It’s got a 10% yield, which is really terrific. I want Barry to come on and tell me what’s in the portfolio so I would feel better recommending it, because I was quite surprised they would have such a precipitous fall given how good Barry Sternlicht really is.”
