Jim Cramer Says Wendy’s “Is Just the Wrong Stock” and Recommends Mcdonald’s Instead

The Wendy’s Company (NASDAQ:WEN) is one of the stocks mentioned during the show, as we cover everything Jim Cramer said about the market. When a caller asked about the stock during the lightning round, Cramer said:

No, we cannot buy Wendy’s. No, it is just, it is just the wrong stock. Meanwhile, McDonald’s is down a quick 10 bucks today. I think you start buying some McDonald’s. That had a fantastic quarter.

The Wendy’s Company (NASDAQ:WEN) operates and franchises quick-service restaurants specializing in hamburgers. Cramer similarly suggested avoiding the stock during his game plan presented on October 31, 2025. He commented:

Finally, Friday, we got a lagging fast food chain, Wendy’s… I think these two bookends are most appropriate… and unfortunately, losers keep losing, so you gotta avoid Wendy’s.
