- Jim Cramer said Tuesday that relentless market negativity is creating buying opportunities even as all three major indexes finished in the red, with the 30-year Treasury yield hitting 5.33% (its highest level in nearly two decades) and Brent crude surpassing $90 a barrel amid stalled U.S.-Iran negotiations
- Cramer argued he isn't calling an exact bottom but said investors are 'getting better prices than you'd see if the backdrop were good,' with the cost of waiting 'seems to be manageable'
- Cramer doesn't expect Brent crude to rise much beyond $100 as additional supply comes online and said higher Treasury yields could eventually attract buyers seeking to lock in attractive government-debt returns
- Cramer's Charitable Trust recently purchased Micron amid strong demand for memory used in AI infrastructure, and Cramer cited a record number of short bets on the Nasdaq 100 as a reason to gradually buy beaten-down data center stocks
- Cramer pointed to resilient consumer spending as a counterweight to bearishness, citing Airbnb's strong travel demand and calling Home Depot's latest results its 'best quarter in five years'
Why it matters: Cramer is putting the Investing Club's money where his mouth is — the Charitable Trust recently added Micron amid record Nasdaq 100 short interest — betting that the 30-year Treasury at 5.33% and Brent near $90 are near-term extremes rather than a new regime, with his argument hinging on incoming oil supply and resilient service-economy data.
