Cramer praised Richard C. Adkerson, CEO and president of Freeport, who was on the show earlier with Erin Burnett. "He's great, just great!" Cramer said. He called Adkerson honest and said he's doing a terrific job running his business in a tough environment.
American Express (AXP) is down 10% to $36.93 after it reported a sharp drop in its second-quarter earnings yesterday. The company reported 56 cents a share, while analysts had expected 83 cents a share. "It has tarnished its franchise," Cramer said. "Why did they have to go into lending?"
Cramer went on to talk about natural gas. He thinks natural gas is nearing a bottom, and judging from a risk/reward standpoint, he said, he sees more upside potential, which he feels will benefit
Canadian Natural Resources (CNQ). The stock is down about 4% to $86.12.
He briefly mentioned
Whole Foods (WFMI), saying: "It is turning into a yield play." Cramer also said he has "a lot of faith" in
Kroger (KRO) since the company has demonstrated strong financial results that he believes will continue.
