One name Cramer likes is
Amazon, even though the stock is trading at over $1,750 a share. So if someone wants to buy 10 shares, they should buy two, he said.
"I don't know when you buy Amazon other than it's when down big and people are really scared," he said.
If that name is priced too high, then he said there are other "interesting" tech situations like
Cisco, which has a good yield, and
Verizon.
"The time to really be aggressive in selling happened. If we get anything good out of China … or if we get any news that [Fed Chair Jerome] Powell agrees with my view, we're going to say why didn't we do some buying," Cramer said.
Cramer has also been critical of the Fed in recent days, saying Powell should look more closely at economic data before announcing its lockstep interest rate hike plans.
However, the "
Mad Money" host doesn't agree with Trump calling out Powell, even though he believes the economy is further along in the cycle then the Fed thinks
"I just wish the president would cool it in terms of saying 'they know nothing' to Federal Reserve Chairman Powell and therefore maybe Powell could walk it back a little," he said. "The current data is not as strong as it was and the economy looks stronger than it is."
In fact, he thinks the "collateral damage" of the Fed continuing to raise rates while the economy starts to cool is far worse than that of Trump's tariffs.
