Stryker Corporation (NYSE:SYK) was among the stocks on Jim Cramer’s radar on Mad Money, as he advised investors to care about where a stock is going, not where it has been. Toward the end of the lightning round, a caller asked if the stock is a buy, sell, or hold. In response, Cramer said:
See, I kept thinking that there would be a consolidator and Stryker would do the consolidating and J&J’s spinning off its orthopedics, too. And it has not come true… And I’m kind of bummed because I thought that that group, which was Zimmer, Biomet, and Stryker, I thought they would work out something, and they haven’t, and it’s been a real tough run.
