We recently published a list of 10 Jim Cramer Stocks to Watch in 2025. In this article, we are going to take a look at where BlackRock, Inc. (NYSE:BLK) stands against other Jim Cramer stocks to watch in 2025.
Jim Cramer in a latest program on CNBC commented on the bearish start of 2025 and said being a bear in the market is “easy” because when the stocks rise no one would remember your outlook but if they fall, you will get the credit for your forethought. Cramer mentioned the reasons why he is bullish on the market in 2025.
First, Cramer believes the departure of FTC Chair Lina Khan would bode well for the market. He called Khan “way over her head” and said she used to oppose “all deals.”
Cramer also said President-elect Donald Trump’s tariff policies are expected to be “negotiable” that would offset their negative impact on companies. He also commented on the expected dynamics in the housing market:
“Housing breaks price we’re already seeing what happens when there’s overbuilding as is case in Florida. Prices come down when mortgage rates go up. What happens? Prices go down. Once prices come down, you know what? Buyers start staying away hoping for still lower prices, and it usually works, causing sellers to panic furiously, cutting prices themselves. They’ll be stuck and can’t move. It’s called the cycle. Although it has been operating normally for the last few years, I think 2025 will be the year the cycle reasserts itself, and the FED will win big on this one.”
