We recently compiled a list of the Jim Cramer Talked About These 11 Stocks Recently.In this article, we are going to take a look at where Atlassian Corporation (NASDAQ:TEAM) stands against the other stocks Jim Cramer recently talked about.
On Thursday, Jim Cramer, host of Mad Money, discussed the current state of the market following the election, noting that it has been marked by extreme volatility, with some sectors experiencing massive gains while others have faced significant losses. Cramer observed a recurring pattern in the market:
“When it's loved in this market, it's really loved, but when it's hated, I mean just forget about it. That's been the dynamic ever since the election.”
Cramer identified certain industries that have seen notable growth, explaining that these sectors have thrived for specific reasons. However, he cautioned that investors should be wary of jumping in too quickly, as these stocks need time to cool off before they become attractive again. In particular, he mentioned how companies with subscription-based models have been seeing a lot of attention, largely because of their steady revenue streams.
Another sector Cramer highlighted as being in the midst of a strong rally is enterprise software. He explained that companies in this space, particularly those providing essential products to large corporations, have been soaring.
While some sectors are riding high, Cramer also pointed to two areas that are currently undervalued but could see a rebound: pharmaceuticals and semiconductors. He speculated that the pharmaceutical sector has been dragged down in part due to concerns over Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s controversial appointment as the head of the Department of Health and Human Services. However, Cramer suggested that these concerns may already be priced into the stocks.
Similarly, Cramer noted that semiconductor stocks have struggled. He said that the hatred comes from doubts surrounding the adoption of artificial intelligence-powered PCs. In his closing remarks, Cramer stressed that while there are plenty of stocks that are currently over-loved, many of them genuinely deserve the attention they’re receiving, but not necessarily at their current inflated prices.
As for sectors that seem to be in a perpetual decline, Cramer said he would be interested in buying them, but only after seeing signs that they’ve stopped falling. He added that any potential rebound will depend on greater clarity from President-elect Trump, who he believes could have a significant impact on the market, particularly with his potential to cause turbulence for many stocks.
“We need to see the floor of the abyss, unless, of course, we’re bouncing off it already. And for the overly loved, don't look for Trump for support. He can surprise you with what concerns him. Do not get too cocky. Do not get too smug. It will hurt you for certain.”

A group of executives in a board room discussing the latest software innovation.
Cramer mentioned that Atlassian Corporation’s (NASDAQ:TEAM) high price-to-earnings ratio is giving him vertigo.
“Let's start with love: This market [is] once again enamored with those enterprise software stocks that are so expensive… Now these have all had parabolic moves, up double digits this month, even if they all pulled back a little bit today. If you're selling software to big businesses, you can do no wrong in this market… I think Atlassian, symbol TEAM, which makes worker collaboration software kicked off this whole move at the beginning of the month when it reported a fantastic quarter, but now it sells for 77 times earnings. It's giving me vertigo. Now, enterprise software does tend to not have much Chinese exposure, which is a positive heading into Trump's second term. How much is that worth? Not clear. At the CNBC Investing Club meeting, Jeff Marks and I talked about which companies could be helped or hurt by Trump 2.0. Enterprise software, it came out unscathed. I think that should put a premium on enterprise software stocks. But at this point, enough is enough. I say let 'em come down and then you can buy.”
Atlassian (NASDAQ:TEAM) designs and develops a range of software products aimed at improving project management, collaboration, communication, and enterprise agility for businesses and teams across various functions.
