This is a treacherous market filled with extreme stock moves

CNBC’s Jim Cramer on Friday offered viewers his game plan for the next five trading days on Wall Street.

The “Mad Money” host’s lookahead came after the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite posted their best weeks so far in 2022, finishing 1.5% and 2.4% higher, respectively.

“This week we saw the true colors of what is a treacherous market,” the “Mad Money” host said. If investors love a stock, there’s “no level it won’t be taken up to,” he said. “But if it’s hated? There are no depths it won’t sink to. Either way … it’s likely to be an extreme.”

• Projected EPS: $5.25

Cramer said Chipotle’s quarter is the one he’s most interested in Tuesday. “I think it could do low double-digit same-store sales versus last year’s already excellent numbers and that should cause the stock to ignite,” he said. “Raw costs are always a problem in the business, though.”
