Jim Cramer on Cardinal Health: 'I am a Believer'
Cardinal Health, Inc. (NYSE:CAH) is one of the 11 stocks on Jim Cramer's radar. Calling Cardinal Health, Inc.'s (NYSE:CAH) upcoming Investor Day a possible needle mover, Cramer said: 'Now, Thursday brings some analyst meetings that could move the needle.

A senior physician in a modern healthcare institution administering medication to a patient. Cardinal Health (NYSE:CAH) provides medical products and services used in various care settings. The company delivers pharmaceuticals, equipment, and support tools while managing distribution, logistics, and pharmacy operations through healthcare-focused technology. On May 14, Cramer extensively commented on the company as he said: 'These stocks, namely Cardinal Health, Cencora, and McKesson, are seemingly perpetual residents on the new high list. Over the long haul, they're some of the best performers out there, and they've done great this year, as is pretty much always the case. And yet, doesn't it always feel like the drug distributors are just one bad day away from falling apart… Let's not forget that the drug distributors are making fortunes right now. Cardinal Health turned in an excellent set of numbers two weeks ago with double-digit earnings growth. Management put through a big boost in their full-year earnings forecast. Cardinal stock jumped 3% in response, climbing from $141 to $145, and it kept running for really a week after that, eventually setting at an all-time high of $154 just last Thursday. What a fabulous move… While we acknowledge the potential of CAH as an investment, we believe certain AI stocks offer greater upside potential and carry less downside risk.

Grant applications roll out in response to Georgia opioid crisis
ATLANTA, Ga. (WSAV) — The Georgia Opioid Crisis Abatement Trust works to eradicate and prevent the opioid crisis. In 2022, Georgia secured $638 million from settlements with major pharmaceutical companies and an additional $13 million from McKinsey & Company to combat the opioid crisis. The funds go to support initiatives like expanding treatment options, increasing public awareness and providing life-saving naloxone, more commonly known as Narcan. Governor Brian Kemp said, 'Like every other state, the opioid crisis has hit Georgia communities and families hard and with lasting effect. These funds will help us fight the good fight against the disease of addiction, help us make our communities more secure and help us see that justice is done for the victims of these opioid manufacturers and distributors.' The Georgia Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Disabilities (GDBHDD) says opioid-related overdoses have killed more than 650,000 people over the last 25 years, with a 200 percent increase between 2010 and 2020. Kevin Tanner, State Commissioner for the GDBHDD, said of the settlement, '$479 million of that money will flow through the trust over the next 18 years and out of that, 60 percent will go statewide initiatives, and 40 percent for regional initiatives. We opened that first opportunity for grants last year.' Apply online for the funds through Wednesday, June 18, 2025. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
