Cramer's JNJ dip call lands on a stock up 54% and already at an all-time high

9/9/2026

53.76% is the trailing-year return Johnson & Johnson (NYSE: JNJ) carried into Jim Cramer's Tuesday dip-buy call on CNBC's Squawk on the Street, where he urged viewers to step into a 2.33% mid-session drop to $268.82.

That gain exceeds both NVIDIA (NASDAQ: NVDA) at 32.63% and Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) at 32.32% by more than 20 percentage points, the same two names Cramer positions as JNJ's tech counterparts.

The stock hit an all-time high last week and is up 31.99% year to date.
