Jim Cramer on Charles Schwab: "Be Very Careful Before You Do Some Buying"

The Charles Schwab Corporation (NYSE:SCHW) is one of the stocks that Jim Cramer shared insights on. During the episode, Cramer recommended caution before investing in the stock after its recent run. He said:

“Finally, don’t say I didn’t tell you so, we’ve been championing Charles Schwab from the days when the doubters cast dispersions on the balance sheet. That was 25 points ago. They’ve been silent of late. But I think the short sellers like to come out and color the opening of trading when Schwab opens. I say be very careful before you do some buying.”

Charles Schwab (NYSE:SCHW) provides a broad range of financial services, including wealth management, brokerage, banking, and advisory solutions. Furthermore, the company offers trading platforms, investment products, retirement tools, and support for individual investors and financial advisors. Baron Asset Fund stated the following regarding The Charles Schwab Corporation (NYSE:SCHW) in its Q1 2025 investor letter:

“Strength in Financials came from specialty insurer Arch Capital Group Ltd. and brokerage firm The Charles Schwab Corporation (NYSE:SCHW). Schwab’s shares outperformed for a second consecutive quarter, helped by an improved earnings outlook. After reaching trough levels last year, Schwab’s cash balances continued to trend higher during the quarter. Investors believe Schwab will use these balances to pay down higher cost borrowings, which should drive net interest income and earnings higher.”
