Jim Cramer Discusses Relationship Between Charles Schwab's Earnings and Retail Investor Trends

The Charles Schwab Corporation (NYSE:SCHW) is one of the stocks in Jim Cramer’s game plan for this week. While discussing the stock, Cramer noted that more people are “coming back to stocks,” as he commented:

“Schwab gives us its numbers, too. And why do I want to look at this? Well, I like to look at retail participation in the market. I think more and more people are coming back to stocks, one of the reasons why I wrote my book, and I hope today’s meltdown doesn’t drive those people right back out. They won’t if they read it.”

The Charles Schwab Corporation (NYSE:SCHW) provides wealth management, brokerage, banking, and advisory services, providing trading platforms, investment products, and financial planning solutions. While discussing relatively cheap S&P 500 stocks during the September 22 episode, Cramer mentioned the stock and said:

“Beyond the banks and the credit card issuers, Charles Schwab made the cut, and I’m a big fan of this retail brokerage house.”
