Jim Cramer Says “You’re Not Going to Go Wrong Owning” Mastercard

Mastercard Incorporated (NYSE:MA) is one of the 21 stocks on Jim Cramer’s radar. During the episode, Cramer noted that the company has a younger demographic, as he said:

“Okay, this is a very hard question because Visa and MasterCard are valued much more highly, I think, than American Express in terms of PE multiple. I want American Express of these three, and I’ll tell you why. I think America’s Express has got this younger demographic that is really exciting and not really built into the price-to-earnings multiple. That said, look, these are all great companies… I met with Mastercard’s management this week. I talked with Visa’s management. You’re not going to go wrong owning any one of these companies. They’re three of the best companies in America.”
