Jim Cramer: Veralto Is A 'Well-Run' Company, Likes This Utilities Stock

Benzinga ·  Sep 9 08:59

On CNBC's "Mad Money Lightning Round," Jim Cramer said he likes GE Vernova Inc. (NYSE:GEV). "We're all looking for situations where we can play the environment and corporations, and we've got it," he added.

On Sept. 4, Jefferies initiated coverage on the stock with a Buy rating and announced a price target of $261.

Veralto Corporation (NYSE:VLTO) is a "very well-run" company, Cramer said. "I'm not sure how much more we can go higher unless it makes an acquisition or really accelerates earning, and I don't see that happening."

On Aug. 13, UBS analyst Damian Karas initiated coverage on Veralto with a Neutral rating and announced a price target of $118.

When asked about Eastman Chemical Company (NYSE:EMN), he said, "I think the stock, with a 3% yield, is one of the better, one of the better plastic stocks in the market."

On Aug. 20, Eastman named Iké Adeyemi as Chief Legal Officer.

Lam Research (NASDAQ:LRCX) has "gone down too much," he said. "I'd rather be a buyer, but buy it slowly, do not buy it once, that will only lead to pain."

On Aug. 29, Lam Research raised its quarterly dividend from $2.00 to $2.30 per share.
