Barclays analyst Aleksey Yefremov, on Tuesday, initiated coverage on Element Solutions with an Overweight rating and announced a price target of $53.
Cramer recommended buying MasTec, Inc. (NYSE:MTZ).
Stifel analyst Brian Brophy maintained MasTec with a Buy on Oct. 8 and lowered the price target from $376 to $305.
When asked about IREN Limited (NASDAQ:IREN), he said, “If you want to be in that business of the neocloud, the only one that I trust and want to be in is CoreWeave (NASDAQ:CRWV).”
IREN has reportedly entered a multi-year cloud compute deal with Anthropic.
Cramer said Waste Management, Inc. (NYSE:WM) is a better company than Waste Connections, Inc. (NYSE:WCN).
Morgan Stanley analyst Toni Kaplan maintained an Overweight rating on Waste Connections on Tuesday and lowered the price target from $205 to $195.
When asked about SailPoint, Inc. (NASDAQ:SAIL), he said, “This was supposed to be the Achilles heel of enterprise software and yet it has hung in. I don’t like the company, but I got to tell you all the things that said, ‘it was going to go bankrupt, or it was in some really big trouble.’ Those were just talk.”
Cantor Fitzgerald analyst Jonathan Ruykhaver maintained an Overweight rating on SailPoint on Oct. 9 and raised the price target from $25 to $27.
