We recently published a list of 13 Stock Predictions That Jim Cramer Got Completely Wrong. In this article, we are going to take a look at where Wynn Resorts, Limited (NASDAQ:WYNN) stands against other stocks that Jim Cramer discusses.

During a recent episode of Mad Money, which aired on Monday, the 5th of May, Jim Cramer gave some personal anecdotes from his experience as an investor. He emphasized the importance of savings, starting early and investing as much as one can afford:

“If you don’t have enough money or the time to own a stock portfolio, you can only own one or two stocks, send the money in, as little money as you can, to an index fund, to one of these big mutual funds.”

Jim Cramer gave advice to his viewers about stock picking and which investing accounts to use. He also warned them to not treat investing the same way as gambling and to not chase hype:

“So here’s the bottom line: You want to get started, go small, invest [in] what you know, research intensely, just research, research, research… It’s as simple as a keystroke and the information’s free, including up-to-the-minute financials, analyst presentations, brokerage research, and of course, the conference calls that I tell you are a must if you want to actually know what you’re doing. Simple? No. Lucrative? You bet it is.”

Number of Hedge Fund Holders: 64

Cramer brought up Wynn Resorts, Limited (NASDAQ:WYNN) in that older episode while discussing exposure to China. He mentioned the company’s upcoming earnings and why it’s a core holding in his charitable trust. Here’s what he said back then:

“Next we’re constantly on the lookout for anything good coming from China, right? And we get results from Wynn Resorts on Tuesday night. Wynn owns two casinos in Macau—the Chinese gambling haven. I think they’ll put up some good numbers, which is why we own it for the Charitable Trust. The Chinese seem to be willing to travel locally even as they’re not showing interest in visiting here.”

Despite Cramer’s confidence, the stock fell 14.20% following his endorsement.

Wynn Resorts, Limited (NASDAQ:WYNN) operates high-end casinos and hotels, with a strong presence in Macau and Las Vegas. The host of Mad Money addressed the negativity a few days ago, saying:

“We went to see Wynn Resorts when we were out in Vegas recently, and I know the stock’s been under some pressure. I’d love to hear that the negativity is all hot air.”
