We recently published a list of 8 Stocks on Jim Cramer’s Radar Recently. In this article, we are going to take a look at where Reddit, Inc. (NYSE:RDDT) stands against other stocks that Jim Cramer discussed recently.

On Wednesday’s episode of Mad Money, Jim Cramer reviewed the recent developments affecting drug distribution companies and laid out why he is turning cautious on the group. He pointed out that stocks of major drug distributors have retreated from their all-time highs.

“Most of the time, that’s because of vague, amorphous concerns that some type of regulatory crackdown will force them out of business or, at the very least, make them a lot less profitable.”

Cramer referenced the executive order signed by the President last week aimed at lowering drug prices, which triggered a sell-off across the drug distribution sector. He explained that the order would effectively require pharmaceutical companies to offer the U.S. government drug prices that match the lowest rates charged in other advanced economies. Cramer said the market’s fear is straightforward: if drugmakers are forced to cut prices for their government customers, then drug distributors could see their margins shrink.

“The bottom line: No matter how well the drug distributors have been doing, I do not want to stick my neck out for an industry that now seems to be hated by both the Democrats and the Republicans. It seems like the only thing they agree on, doesn’t it? There are so many potential winners in this market, I say, why take the risk?”

Jim Cramer Says Reddit (RDDT) Is "Absolutely Worth Buying at These Levels"

Reddit, Inc. (NYSE:RDDT)

Number of Hedge Fund Holders: 87

Cramer noted that Reddit, Inc. (NYSE:RDDT) is a “buy” but only for investors who can withstand market volatility.

“So many stocks have made incredible comebacks over the past few weeks, but there are still plenty of names that are way down from their highs earlier this year. Take Reddit… while the stock soared 11% today, it’s off more than a hundred bucks from its February peak of $230 and change. I think it might be a buying opportunity here as long as you steel yourself for a potentially wild ride. It is a wild trader. See, two weeks ago, Reddit reported the stunning quarter, but the stock didn’t get any credit for it at all… Despite initially surging 18% in after-hours trading, Reddit stock finished the next session down more than 4%…

While I think Reddit’s absolutely worth buying at these levels, even after today’s monster move, stocks like these are only worth owning if you can stomach some serious volatility like we’re having right now. Keep in mind, we’re always one presidential tweet or whatever you want to call it away from these kinds of names falling out of favor all over again. That’s why I say Reddit’s a buy, but only if you’ve got the intestinal fortitude to stick around for the long haul.”

Reddit (NYSE:RDDT) runs a widely used platform where users share content, take part in discussions, and engage in communities centered on specific topics.

Overall, RDDT ranks 2nd on our list of stocks that Jim Cramer discussed recently.
