We recently published a list of Jim Cramer Discussed These 12 Stocks Recently. In this article, we are going to take a look at where Novo Nordisk A/S (NYSE:NVO) stands against other stocks that Jim Cramer discussed recently.
On Friday, Mad Money host Jim Cramer addressed growing concerns in the market as tensions between the United States and China push closer to what he described as a full-scale trade war. He noted that the overall sentiment is clouded by uncertainty. Cramer emphasized:
“At the end of the day, China is the low-cost producer. We need other countries to stand up and make the goods for us, or we need to build automated factories at home to do the same thing because wages in America are simply just too expensive to compete.”

According to Cramer, both alternatives will take time to implement. In the meantime, he warned that Americans should prepare to either pay significantly more for goods or deal with widespread shortages, or likely both. He also warned that companies exposed to economic cycles could be especially vulnerable.
As inflationary pressures mount, Cramer argued that the broader economy is in jeopardy. He emphasized that unless another country with a labor force comparable in size and cost to China’s emerges unexpectedly, the Federal Reserve will have little ability to intervene meaningfully.
Cramer also pointed to an important reason China controls such a large portion of the American retail market. He explained that Chinese goods are not only cheaper but often just good enough in quality that few American companies are willing to challenge them. He went on to say that Chinese manufacturers have long known how to price their products in a way that discourages American entrepreneurs.
