Jim Cramer Says a Pullback After Marriott’s Earning is Usually a “Buying Opportunity”

Marriott International, Inc. (NASDAQ:MAR) is one of the stocks in Jim Cramer’s game plan for this week. Cramer noted that when the company reports, the stock usually declines. He said:

“We also get numbers from the always reliable Marriott. Now, I do want to point out that when this great hotelier reports, its stock often goes down, even if the numbers are good. Usually, though, that’s a buying opportunity. But let’s wait until the day after before we pull the trigger.”

Marriott (NASDAQ:MAR) operates, franchises, and licenses a broad portfolio of hotel, residential, and timeshare brands, ranging from luxury to extended stay. The company’s portfolio spans well-known names like The Ritz-Carlton, W Hotels, Sheraton, and Courtyard by Marriott. Artisan Partners stated the following regarding Marriott International, Inc. (NASDAQ:MAR) in its Q1 2025 investor letter:

“We exited Marriott International, Inc. (NASDAQ:MAR), a multinational hospitality company, after a successful multiyear investment campaign. Marriott is a prime example of how we aim to use volatility to our advantage by investing in quality businesses at lower prices. When we initiated our position in March 2020during the COVID crash, its P/E multiple had collapsed from the mid-20s to the high teens, which offered a sufficient margin of safety, in our estimation, to take on the position in an iconic, long lived global franchise with competitive advantages to peers, value conscious management, a flexible financial structure and cash producing capabilities. At the time it was tough to see travel picking up again, though we believed it was only a matter of time. Since that time, travel has been one of the strongest areas of the economy, and Marriott’s stock price is up more than three-fold from its March 2020 lows.”
