Ford Motor Company (F): 'People Want To See Earnings' Not Announcements, Says Jim Cramer
Ford Motor Company (NYSE:F)'s shares have gained 18.6% year-to-date to significantly outpace the gains of its peer and rival, General Motors. The firm has benefited from investor attention due to its manufacturing base in the US, while General Motors has suffered due to its reliance on the Mexican supply chain. Ford Motor Company (NYSE:F) recently announced that it would invest $2 billion in the US and launch new EVs. However, the shares are up by a measly 2.7% since then. Cramer commented on why Ford Motor Company (NYSE:F)'s shares didn't rise:
'People want to see earnings. That's the [inaudible] they want to see earnings, they want to see a decline in warranties and that would matter.
Here are his previous thoughts about Ford Motor Company (NYSE:F):
'And yet Ford stock is going from 10 to 11 in a quarter. What that says to me is that what we're reading is not right. That stock does not easily go up. A 10% move in that stock is like, that's glacial. . .I just think that Ford's going to get a break here.

'I just think that Ford has the most made in America. Of these manufacturers. So that's why I think that Ford's up actually. Somehow I think they feel that they could get some relief. Because they are the largest makers of autos in this country. So why are they the most hurt? It is a little counterintuitive. And I think that their case will not be special pleading. I think it will be something the President will endorse. Not that, I wasn't in the White House, but I think Jim Farley has a very good case that he should not have to bear the brunt because he makes the most in this country.'

Stock futures are little changed following back-to-back winning weeks: Live updates
Traders work on the floor at the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) in New York City, U.S., August 12, 2025. Brendan McDermid | Reuters Stock futures are near flat Sunday night after hopes for lower interest rates fueled a winning week on Wall Street. Dow Jones Industrial Average futures added just 3 points. S&P 500 futures and Nasdaq 100 futures were also little changed. Sunday night's action comes after the three major averages notched their second straight positive week. The Dow climbed 1.7%, while the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite rose 0.9% and 0.8%, respectively. It was also the fourth week of gains out of the last five for the S&P 500 and Nasdaq. Small-cap stocks outperformed last week, jumping more than 3% as investors bet on forthcoming rate cuts from the Federal Reserve. Ross Mayfield, investment strategist at Baird Private Wealth Management, also pointed to the S&P 500 Equal Weight Consumer Discretionary index hitting an all-time high as a sign that tariff-driven economic fears may be overblown. "With the market's message quite upbeat ... it raises the question of whether the conventional wisdom about a weakening U.S. consumer and potential stagflation is missing the mark," he wrote in a Friday note. The Fed will continue to be in focus this week as central bank members travel to Jackson Hole, Wyoming, for the annual economic policy symposium. Investors will be monitoring the event for clues about the future path of rates. Fed funds futures are pricing in a nearly 85% likelihood that the central bank cuts rates at its next policy meeting in September, according to CME's FedWatch tool. Beyond economic policy, traders will be monitoring earnings reports due over the course of the week as the season winds down. Big-box retailers, including Home Depot , Lowe's , Walmart and Target , are among the major companies slated to release results this week. Of the more than 92% of S&P 500 companies that have already reported this quarter, almost 82% have surpassed Wall Street's expectations, according to FactSet.

Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (AMD) Is Good But The Stock Shouldn't Have Risen Recently, Says Jim Cramer
We recently published . Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMD) is one of the stocks Jim Cramer recently discussed. Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMD)'s AI accelerators are the only ones in the market that can cater to AI demand on a massive scale, except for NVIDIA's products. Consequently, the firm's shares have gained 47% year-to-date as Wall Street remains bullish on the long-term prospects of AI and Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMD)'s ability to cater to the demand. The ability of the firm to profit from AI demand was evident from the report that Cramer discussed: '. . .there was a short story out there that NVIDIA's gonna get late with the next chip which is the Vera Rubin, and therefore the MI450 by AMD is going to be in ascendance. The story was, I'll just use a word that I think is really kind of indicative of where we are. It was a lie. It was a lie. . .it was untrue. And it caused a lot of people to buy AMD up nine and sell NVIDIA. Here are his previous thoughts about Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMD): 'I think this is the pause that refreshes. I like the pullback. I'm surprised we're even getting it. I think that Lisa Su has got something big going on with this MI400, that's a competitor to NVIDIA. There's room for them even if they do billions and billions of dollars in that category. They'll get their fair share. I want you to buy some.'

We recently published . Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN) is one of the stocks Jim Cramer recently discussed. Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN)'s shares have lost 1% since the firm's latest earnings report, as investors worry about the firm's cloud computing business.

(NASDAQ:AMZN) retail business as well: 'So I think that, there isn't anything in my mind that says that, you take warehouses being up, that employing people in warehousing. . .And then you take a look at what Amazon's doing. You read how their big warehouses have no people. And them I'm supposed to conclude that the problem is warehouse employment? You need to be a little more granular than the Labor Department. 'Hey by the way, let's not forget. We are going to have a number of drug stores in this country that is probably about one fifth of what we have now. And that was the Amazon factor. So you're going to get your food, you're going to get your drugs, it's going to come to your house. It's a whole new world. And Amazon's got it. Let's just walk away from the idea that web services is declining just for a few minutes please.'
