FedEx Corporation (NYSE:FDX) is one of the Jim Cramer Warns Viewers About FOMO & Discusses These 19 Stocks.
FedEx Corporation (NYSE:FDX) is one of the biggest freight and logistics companies in the world. Its shares are dependent on global and American economic performance. Year-to-date, FedEx Corporation (NYSE:FDX)’s shares have lost 16.5% on the back of a devastating 19% drop in the aftermath of the Liberation Day tariffs. Cramer’s previous comments about the company have discussed how its business-to-business operations are failing to perform. However, despite this, the CNBC host prefers FedEx Corporation (NYSE:FDX) over its rival UPS. Cramer also likes the firm’s CEO. His latest remarks urged viewers to keep an eye on President Trump’s anger towards Spain and how it could affect global logistics companies like FedEx Corporation (NYSE:FDX):
“I wanna keep an eye on that, because I know that a company like FedEx, I mean cross border’s really, really huge.”

Here’s what Cramer said after FedEx Corporation (NYSE:FDX)’s latest earnings results:
“Third loser, freight transportation. Truckers can’t seem to make their numbers. The railroad stocks can’t get any momentum. FedEx showed you how hard this business is when they reported last night. Their business-to-business service has been stuck in neutral, even as the business-to-consumer side is okay, but FedEx hasn’t been able to make the Street’s numbers.
I think we’ve got some opportunity here, though. FedEx has cut its capital expenditures and chopped its expenses. It’s a coiled spring. I like coiled springs, but understand that it won’t spring until we see how the tariffs shake out, because so much of the business involves import-export. Until then, spring stays coiled.”
