Jim Cramer examined Banco Santander, S.A. (NYSE:SAN) during the lightning round segment of his show. A caller asked for Cramer's opinion on the stock.
"Santander is terrific," Cramer said. "I think that Santander is amazing. I think Ana Botín is incredible... recommending this stock since 3, and I'm redoubling my efforts to tell you to buy it right now."
The episode aired on December 12, 2025. Another club member stated they had taken partial profits from the stock and doubled their investment. They asked Cramer if they should buy more, hold, or sell.
"You hold it," Cramer replied. "You're playing with the house's money. Ana Botín is just extraordinary, okay, extraordinary. That was a triple, and I think there's more ahead. And she has been the most successful bank CEO to come on Mad Money, but she's also the smartest and coolest by the way."
Banco Santander provides banking, financing, investment, and insurance services. The company offers lending, wealth management, payments, and digital banking.
