Affirm Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:AFRM) is one of the stocks Jim Cramer recently discussed. Cramer noted the market’s reaction to the stock after the company posted its quarterly report over a month ago. The Mad Money host said:
“A little over a month ago, we got a really impressive quarter from Affirm Holdings, the buy now, pay later powerhouse… [It] posted a 12-cent earnings beat off an 11% basis with much higher than expected revenue. The stock shot up more than 11% the next day, reaching a high of $79 and change a couple of days later. Since then, though, Affirm has gradually drifted lower because of concerns about the state of the consumer to the point where it’s now back to $65 and change, trading like that great quarter never happened. I think that’s crazy because the Fed just cut interest rates again last week and even before that, we got a ton of very positive quarters from all sorts of retailers, suggesting the consumer’s doing fine.”
