Jim Cramer Says He Will Pay No Amount For This Energy Stock, Calls Ferguson A 'Very, Very Good' Company
On CNBC's “Mad Money Lightning Round,” Jim Cramer said Ferguson plc (NYSE:FERG) is a “very, very good” company. However, he recommends Trane Technologies plc (NYSE:TT) or Carrier Global Corporation (NYSE:CARR) ‘in case you want HVAC (heating, ventilating, and air conditioning).’
On June 4, Ferguson reported third-quarter net sales of $7.308 billion. That’s 2.4% higher year over year, driven by volume improvement despite continued deflation of approximately 2%.
KKR & Co. Inc. (NYSE:KKR) is the “foremost, the other one that I would recommend is Blackstone (NYSE:BX),” Cramer said.
On July 8, TD Cowen analyst Bill Katz maintained KKR with a Buy and lowered the price target from $157 to $145.
The “Mad Money” host said he will pay no amount for Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. – Petrobras (NYSE:PBR).
On June 27, B of A Securities analyst Caio Ribeiro upgraded Petrobras Brasileiro from Neutral to Buy and raised the price target from $16.8 to $17.9.
Alliance Resource Partners, L.P. (NASDAQ:ARLP) has had a very big run, he said. “I know the yield looks great — I think you're peaking on a coal cycle here, I'm not going to get in front of a peak of a coal cycle.”
On May 29, Alliance Resource Partners announced the pricing of $400 million private offering of senior notes.
Cramer recommended to hold Alibaba Group Holding Limited (NYSE:BABA) here.
Alibaba Group and SenseTime highlighted significant progress in artificial intelligence at the World Artificial Intelligence Conference (WAIC) in Shanghai, signaling intense competition in China's AI market.
