Jim Cramer Says You Should ‘Keep Owning' Energy Transfer (ET) 7% Dividend Yield Stock

Yahoo26-01-2025

We recently published a list of im Cramer is Talking About These 10 Stocks. In this article, we are going to take a look at where Energy Transfer LP (NYSE:ET) stands against other stocks that Jim Cramer is talking about.
Jim Cramer in a latest program on CNBC discussed the reasons behind the recent market declines after the ISM Services Index data. Cramer said many are still expecting more rate cuts from the Federal Reserve soon but they are wrong.
'This survey showed surprising strength, so much strength that it makes you think that the FED might not give us more rate cuts anytime soon. Right now, a ton of investors believe that the FED needs to push through a bunch of rate cuts in order to revive the economy. Lots of those bulls are counting on those cuts. That seems wrong today. They were rocked to the core because not only have they been wrong, but they're starting to question the FED's credibility. They know nothing,' Cramer said.
Cramer said he was 'mystified' by the Fed's rate cuts amid strong economic data.
'These traders are wondering why the heck the FED cut short rates by 50 basis points September then give another 25 in November another 25 in December what the heck did they see that made them so aggressive judging by the data. Nothing. The credibility issue, if you claim you're data dependent, and the data is strong then why the heck are you cutting so aggressively.'
Cramer at the time said the latest nonfarm payrolls report would be one of the most important indicators of the economy and it would set the 'dialog' in the coming days. Sure it will. The latest jobs data showed unemployment fell and job additions crushed Wall Street expectations. Many now believe the Fed is set to put brakes on rate cuts.

'I want you to keep owning it. It's got a 7% yield, and if it goes down, just buy more. I like Energy Transfer. I used to dislike it, but I've liked it now for the last five points.'
Energy Transfer LP (NYSE:ET) is among the largest midstream companies in the world, with over 130,000 miles of pipelines and nearly 900,000 barrels per day in natural gas liquids (NGL) gathering capacity. The company makes about 90% of its EBITDA from fees, which makes it less cyclical compared to upstream energy companies that produce oil and gas.

Jim Cramer says it's time for the U.S. to negotiate with other countries for rare earth minerals

CNBC's Jim Cramer on Wednesday said it's necessary for the U.S. to negotiate with countries other than China for rare earth minerals. "We need to make these rare earth deals with the same alacrity that the White House gave out the reciprocal tariffs on 'liberation day.' We need them yesterday," he said. "Then, and only then, will we truly be liberated." China dominates the global market for these critical minerals, producing about 60% and processing almost 90%, CNBC reported. The materials are used in most electronics and are vital to the automotive and defense industries. Officials have warned that the U.S.'s dependence on China for the minerals poses a strategic issue. China imposed export restrictions on rare earth minerals back in April in response to President Donald Trump's harsh tariff hikes. Trump said on Wednesday that China will supply the minerals up front to the U.S. as part of a trade agreement. While he posted on Truth Social that the deal is "done," he also said it's "subject to final approval" between himself and Chinese President Xi Jinping. According to Cramer, the U.S. needs to reach out to countries like Brazil, Vietnam and Australia, who have the raw materials for earth minerals and magnets. The U.S. should make deals with these countries immediately and perhaps wave the high tariffs that the White House put on their imports, he said. Cramer said the U.S. doesn't "have the cards," in negotiations with China because of its reliance on rare earth minerals, even as it tries to disrupt China's manufacturing economy. "What the heck were we thinking when we started a trade war without having this rare earths issue all buttoned up and ready to go?" he asked.
