Jim Cramer Says This Construction Giant Is 'So Good' And 'Goes Higher'
On CNBC’s "Mad Money Lightning Round," Jim Cramer recommended buying The Allstate Corporation (NYSE:ALL), which recently posted upbeat results for its fourth quarter.
Cramer's advice comes as Allstate — one of the largest insurance companies in the country — decided to stop offering new policies in California, which has been battered by wildfires in recent years.
Kimberly-Clark Corporation (NYSE:KMB) didn’t report great quarterly numbers, Cramer said. "I think the company is in the midst of a turn, but it’s not going as quickly as I’d like."
Kimberly-Clark said fourth-quarter sales remained flat year-over-year at $4.97 billion, missing the consensus estimate of $4.98 billion.
When asked about PayPal Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:PYPL), Cramer said, "You should be worried."
PayPal reported upbeat earnings and sales results for its fourth quarter. However, the company said it expects full-year 2024 adjusted earnings to be in line with full-year 2023 earnings of $5.10 per share.
Lennar Corporation (NYSE:LEN) is "so good," Cramer said. "Lennar goes higher."
Lennar’s board recently increased its annual dividend to $2.00 from $1.50 per share. The move will result in a quarterly cash dividend of $0.50 per share for both Class A and Class B common stock. The dividend is payable on Feb. 7, 2024, to holders of record at the close of business on Jan. 24, 2024.

When asked about Hawkins (NASDAQ:HWKN), he said, "I think the stock is a buy."
Hawkins recently reported worse-than-expected third-quarter revenue results.
