We recently published an article titled Jim Cramer’s Latest Lightning Round: 8 Stocks in Focus. In this article, we are going to take a look at where Fiserv, Inc. (NYSE:FI) stands against the other stocks.
On Friday, Jim Cramer, host of Mad Money, addressed the current state of the stock market, giving a cautious recommendation to investors. He gave his blessing to buy stocks, but only to those who can tolerate the potential pain that comes with it. His advice was clear: proceed slowly. He warned against rushing in, acknowledging the market’s current volatility.
“How can markets be so out of control? And they are, well, because frankly, we are in a very emotional market. It’s a market that’s torn between buyers who see terrific opportunities because the market’s down and the Walmart White House where the president keeps trying to give you every day lower prices on stocks almost every time he talks.”

Cramer expressed frustration with the unpredictability of the market, noting that pain seems to be a constant factor. He predicted that this pain might continue, especially as new developments around trade policies emerge over the weekend. Tomorrow, according to Cramer, would likely bring another round of surprises regarding tariffs, contributing to the volatile shifts in market positions that are particularly noticeable on Fridays. He emphasized that this fear-driven behavior is rooted in the uncertainty that permeates the market.
Highlighting the larger issue, Cramer remarked that individual earnings are increasingly overshadowed by the president’s inconsistent actions on tariffs, whether it’s imposing or suspending them without warning.
“I believe the stock market is still the greatest engine of wealth creation in history, but I often feel it cross purposes with the president now.”
He argued that while Wall Street generally dislikes tariffs, what it despises even more is uncertainty, a sentiment that has been intensifying under the current administration. In the midst of this chaos, Cramer stressed that individual stocks are not mere pawns in a larger political game, even if it sometimes feels that way. He added:
“They’re not play things though and you can’t think of them that way or else you’re gonna miss some tremendous opportunities.”
