Summary

Jim Cramer discusses how rising oil prices from Iran tensions create knee-jerk winners in refiners, chemicals, fertilizers, and dollar stores, but he recommends rotating back into beaten-down technology. He endorses Apple, Palantir, and the Bending Spoons IPO with caution, monitors Nvidia and Alphabet for specific catalysts, and features Anna Botín's bullish case for Banco Santander. In the lightning round he calls Endlight a speculative buy, and he suggests buying aerospace stocks if oil fears prove temporary.

  • Oil spike from Iran shutting the Persian Gulf sparks Pavlovian trades: refiners (Valero favorite), Dow, Mosaic, and dollar stores.
  • Cramer urges not to chase those long-term and instead rotate into technology, which he views as robust and near a buying zone.
  • Apple is a long-term hold, own-it-don't-trade-it, as carriers absorb tariff costs and AI lawsuit risk fades.
  • Palantir gets a strong buy endorsement for its profitability, growth, and cash flow.
  • Nvidia needs a much larger, more aggressive buyback to go higher; it's a watch item.
  • Alphabet could surge if Waymo self-driving unit is spun off, revealing its undervaluation.
  • The Bending Spoons IPO is intriguing but Cramer suggests starting a small position while leaving room to buy more on an expected pullback.
  • Banco Santander is a top global bank with strong growth, the Webster acquisition, and AI-driven self-help, targeting 20% RO.
  • In the lightning round, Endlight (LASER) is called a speculative buy.
  • Aerospace stocks may get hammered on oil fears but are the best group to buy by Thursday for a rebound.
Ideas
Jim Cramer Host, Mad Money 1:08
Rotate back into tech for upside.
The technology sector has been beaten down to an attractive buying zone while remaining fundamentally robust with dynamic catalysts, making it a more fertile ground for gains than other sectors.
Jim Cramer Host, Mad Money 3:42
Nvidia needs bigger buyback to rally.
Nvidia's stock won't go higher unless the company dramatically expands its buyback and becomes much more aggressive, but the big buyback potential and current weakness create a setup to monitor for a turnaround.
Jim Cramer Host, Mad Money 6:30
Waymo spinoff could unlock Alphabet value.
If Alphabet spins off its Waymo self-driving unit, the stock could surge dramatically, revealing how undervalued Alphabet is currently.
Jim Cramer Host, Mad Money 7:38
Own Apple, don't trade it.
Apple is a long-term hold because memory-related price increases are already discounted, the lawsuit against OpenAI removes near-term AI hardware risk, and phone carriers will absorb much of the tariff costs.
Jim Cramer Host, Mad Money 9:59
Buy Palantir on strong fundamentals.
Palantir is a great company with strong profitability, huge revenue growth, little debt, and robust free cash flow; it can be bought at current levels.
Jim Cramer Host, Mad Money 25:35
Buy Bending Spoons small, add lower.
Bending Spoons is an intriguing IPO that acquires forgotten digital brands and revives them using AI-driven cost cuts and monetization; start a small position now but leave room to add on the inevitable pullback.
Ana Botín Executive Chair, Banco Santander 28:48
Santander is a global banking powerhouse.
Banco Santander has 180 million customers, global scale, a self-help model driving revenue growth and cost cuts, a path to over 18% RO by 2028 via the Webster acquisition, and is using AI to personalize customer interactions and enter new markets.
Jim Cramer Host, Mad Money 39:31
Speculative buy on Endlight.
Endlight is a speculative buy based on its role in satellite propulsion systems and recent $44 million startup contract.
Jim Cramer Host, Mad Money 40:14
Buy refiners on Iran oil spike.
Refiners like Valero, Marathon Petroleum, and Phillips 66 benefit immediately when oil spikes on Iran/Strait of Hormuz fears because they can raise pump prices instantly, lack of new refineries, and export optionality add upside; Valero is the purest play.
Jim Cramer Host, Mad Money 41:33
Dow gains from disrupted chemical supply.
Dow wins from Persian Gulf disruptions because its chemical competitors go offline, causing massive price increases, while Dow uses cheaper domestic energy, boosting profits.
Jim Cramer Host, Mad Money 41:55
Mosaic wins as Gulf fertilizer disrupted.
Mosaic becomes a low-cost fertilizer producer instantly when Gulf competitors are blocked, making it a direct beneficiary of Iran-driven supply shutdowns.
Jim Cramer Host, Mad Money 42:03
Dollar Tree thrives on consumer trade-down.
Dollar Tree is a natural winner when oil and gasoline prices rise, as consumers trade down to deep discounters; its stores are well-stocked and extremely cheap.
Jim Cramer Host, Mad Money 42:24
Walmart rollbacks will drive traffic.
Walmart is rolling back prices aggressively, which should drive customers back to its stores in the current high-cost environment.
Jim Cramer Host, Mad Money 42:24
TJX offers quick 10% on oil spike.
TJX is the real bargain among retailers because it buys excess merchandise from department stores at pennies on the dollar and resells at deep discounts; a quick 10% gain is possible as oil goes back up.
Jim Cramer Host, Mad Money 43:10
Buy aerospace after oil-driven selloff.
Aerospace stocks will get hammered on rising oil fears, but the gasoline increase will likely roll back, making them the best group to buy by Thursday for a rebound.
