Jim Cramer Won't Press 'Buy Button' On This Stock, Calls Out Insurers: 'They Have No Idea What's Going On'
Portfolio Pulse from Avi Kapoor
Jim Cramer, on CNBC's 'Mad Money Lightning Round,' recommended buying Constellation Energy (CEG) and The Timken Company (TKR), but refrained from endorsing Chegg, Inc. (CHGG) due to competitive pressures from AI like ChatGPT. He expressed concerns about insurers, including UnitedHealth (UNH), stating they are in a 'massive reset' and 'have no idea what's going on.' Constellation Energy announced a $1 billion increase to its repurchase program. Goldman Sachs downgraded Chegg, and DA Davidson initiated coverage on Timken with a Buy rating and a $92 price target. UnitedHealth reported a net profit of $22.4 billion for FY2023 and beat Q4 revenue estimates.
