We recently published a list of 10 Jim Cramer Stocks to Watch Amid Trump Tariff Wars. In this article, we are going to take a look at where Costco Wholesale Corp (NASDAQ:COST) stands against other stocks that Jim Cramer discusses.
Jim Cramer in a latest program on CNBC talked about the latest signs of de-escalation in trade wars between the US and China and told investors that even bear market rallies could be a positive sign. Cramer, however, believes the US government has yet to give any clarity on its policies on China.
“There’s a great misunderstanding about how real recoveries get started. They always start as bear market rallies, for heaven’s sake. They’re rarely based on hard facts. When you get this kind of rally, it doesn’t happen because someone gave you the green light to start buying. You don’t get a statement from the president that the trade war is over and everything’s back to normal.”
In addition to positive reports on the US-China tariff front, Cramer also mentioned the latest reports on President Trump’s stance on Fed Chair Jerome Powell, saying that the possibility of Trump firing the central bank chief seems to be “off the table.”

Jim Cramer in a latest program on CNBC explained why Costco Wholesale Corp (NASDAQ:COST) will benefit from tariffs.
“Costco huge winner. Why? Because they have a club. The club status is to pass on anything. And then they still have the, and it’s still going to be cheaper. So we cannot lump all these together. We lump them initially. Costco is going to be down as much as Target, but then we have to come back and say maybe Target should stay down, but Costco should go up. So there’s like a secondary look at things.”
