On Monday, Jim Cramer, host of Mad Money, shared his views on why the Magnificent Seven can continue to perform well, even after several years of substantial gains.

“Their best days are behind them. Those may be the six most damaging words to your portfolio, and hardly a day goes by when they don’t hinder you from making money, especially when we’re talking about the Magnificent Seven. So many people trade these great stocks rather than owning them.”

Cramer questioned why, for over a decade, many insisted the best was already over for these companies, despite their continued growth. He emphasized that too many people treat these stocks as short-term trades instead of long-term holdings. Talking about the Magnificent Seven stocks, he described their balance sheets as having “essentially all the money in the world,” which he said gives them a unique advantage: the ability to fund innovation without restriction. He mentioned that this kind of liquidity allows them to outcompete rivals, acquire new businesses when necessary, and even withstand regulatory challenges.

He pointed out that even when government agencies take action against them, those efforts often fall short. Cramer pointed to scale as another defining advantage. He said that these companies operate across massive global networks and continue to grow, extending into new areas with relative ease. Another factor that he said sets the Magnificent Seven apart is their capacity for constant reinvention.

“The bottom line: Magnificent Seven are heroes, and I’m not going to tell you to sell heroes unless something changes that makes them feel a lot less heroic. That hasn’t happened, though. They’ve still got great management. They still are overflowing with cash, and their scale is so enormous that no one can stand against them. What’s not to like?”

e.l.f. Beauty, Inc. (NYSE:ELF) is one of the stocks Jim Cramer weighed in on. Noting its recent surge in value, a caller inquired about the stock but voiced concern about potential risks related to China and asked whether it is too late to buy in. In response, Cramer said:

“I would not worry about the China scare because it’s what I call baked into the stock. What I would worry about is the parabolic move we had today. I mean, ELF is up nine. I think we have to wait till it comes down. I’m thrilled you’re in the club, but I know if I were in the club right now and we owned ELF, I would say trim, don’t buy. That’s just a parabolic move, and that signals that it’s up too much.”
