We recently published a list of 13 Stocks on Jim Cramer’s Radar Recently. In this article, we are going to take a look at where Harrow, Inc. (NASDAQ:HROW) stands against other stocks on Jim Cramer’s radar recently.
On Monday’s episode of Mad Money, Jim Cramer broke down the day’s market rally and argued in favor of staying invested, even in times of uncertainty. He pointed out that earnings are once again playing a significant role in driving market behavior.
“Earnings matter again, okay? That’s what happened last night when the United States and China reached an agreement, however temporary, to hold off trade armageddon. The rollback of the exorbitant tariffs to much more reasonable levels caused the stock market to explode.”
He highlighted that the rally was not limited to companies directly tied to U.S.-China trade. He called it “a spectacular day for the bulls.” Still, Cramer was quick to ground the excitement. He pointed out that despite the dramatic gains, the S&P 500 remains essentially flat for the year. While he welcomed the reversal, he said:
“Now don’t get me wrong, I’m glad it happened, but I just spent a week in Europe, and it is stunning how much better the markets are doing over there.”
He expressed hope that the rebound in U.S. stocks continues but warned investors not to ignore other global opportunities. “If we find ourselves in trouble again, something that’s still a real possibility, please don’t forget that Europe’s also an option,” he said. He acknowledged that European markets have been the best-performing so far this year.
“Bottom line: It’s better to stay in, stay on, and let her ride than to try to pick the perfect moment to trade in and out and in and out of the stock market. By the way, that’s not much of a strategy. It’s more of a game of chicken where there are no winners, just losers who think they are smarter than the average bear.”

A caller asked Cramer’s latest thoughts on Harrow, Inc. (NASDAQ:HROW), and he said:
“Look, it’s going to make money. Eye care is a good business. I don’t want to go away from it because if it makes money, then we’ll say, hey wait, wait a second, why did we get out right before the earnings breakout? So I’m okay with it.”
Harrow (NASDAQ:HROW) develops and markets a range of pharmaceutical products for eye care, including treatments for inflammation, infections, pain, and other ophthalmic conditions. The company’s offerings include compounded medications, gels, drops, injections, and emulsions used in various eye-related therapies. On May 12, Craig-Hallum analyst Chase Knickerbocker reduced the price target on HROW to $54 from $58 but maintained a Buy rating after the company missed Q1 earnings expectations. Revenue came in at $47.8 million compared to the Street estimate of $57.0 million, and adjusted EBITDA was $1.9 million versus $11.9 million expected.
The firm cited headwinds from complex destocking and GTN factors. Iheezo fell short due to greater-than-anticipated distributor inventory reductions, and anterior segment products were impacted by previous under accruals. The compounding business also missed projections. On a positive note, Vevye exceeded internal goals and is projected to generate around $100 million for the year.
Overall, HROW ranks 12th on our list of stocks on Jim Cramer’s radar recently.
