On Tuesday’s episode of Mad Money, host Jim Cramer advised sticking with quality stocks even as they go through temporary declines.
“We had a legit tech pullback today. Yet, when I survey the stock market battlefield, I don’t sense the kind of violent sell-off that makes me think we’re going to have a series of vicious down days ahead.”

Cramer addressed common investor anxieties that come up during market drops. He noted that warnings about stocks climbing too high, too fast, or discussions around bubbles tend to resurface during every pullback. He cautioned viewers not to panic during these moments. He advised them to consider buying more of the growth stocks they believe in, especially those they have thoroughly researched and understand.
However, Cramer went on to say that now may not yet be the right time to jump in. He noted that many stocks are still trading near their recent highs, and investors should wait for better prices before making additional purchases.
“Here’s the bottom line: If you don’t feel that way about a stock that you bought today that went down, if you now believe that you bought into a bubble, I cannot help you… I’m trying to help you make money in individual stocks, and that only works if you believe in them enough to buy more when they inevitably pull back. Just be patient, be ready… Don’t feel that you’ve made the biggest mistake in your life because some talking head billionaire said, alas, the end is nigh.”

I think CrowdStrike is in, I think it’s a crouching tiger. That’s what I think it is, and I’m thinking this stock is a $500 stock. That’s how much I like CrowdStrike.”
15. ServiceNow, Inc. (NYSE:NOW)
Number of Hedge Fund Holders: 106
ServiceNow, Inc. (NYSE:NOW) is one of the stocks that Jim Cramer expressed thoughts on. An investing club member inquired about Cramer’s thoughts on the stock during the lightning round, and he replied:
“I think ServiceNow is one of the few software-as-a-service stocks that I can still recommend without hesitation. I think Bill’s doing terrific with that company, and he’s a real great representative of his institution.”
ServiceNow, Inc. (NYSE:NOW) provides cloud-based workflow and automation solutions through its AI-powered Now Platform. Its products support IT, security, customer service, HR, and enterprise operations management. A caller inquired about the stock during the August 11 episode, and Cramer responded:
“Okay, ServiceNow short term is being hurt by a call out of Melius, and that’s by Ben Reitzes, who was saying that these software as a service companies are going to be under pressure because their seat models can be hurt by AI. I think, longer term, ServiceNow has really good AI, and it would not be a stock that I would want to bet against. So, ServiceNow, longer term, I think is fine. Shorter term, I think it’s going to be under pressure.”
