(DCNF)—CNBC host Jim Cramer predicted a market collapse reminiscent of “Black Monday” in 1987 on Friday, but it did not materialize.
Cramer warned viewers on “Mad Money” that a crash like “Black Monday,” where the Dow Jones Industrial Average plunged roughly 22% in a single day, could be on the horizon. However, the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell just .91% on Monday, while the S&P 500 dipped .23% and the Nasdaq Composite actually rose by approximately .10%.
“We’re in one of three modalities, okay? We could be in for the grips of a quick bear market à la the COVID 2020 model. We could be in for a 2000-style bear market, where tech was laid to waste for a very long time,” Cramer said. “Or it might be the big kahuna. That’s the one of October of 1987, where the market went down hard for three days — Wednesday, Thursday, Friday — and then it went even harder on a day we call ‘Black Monday,’ where the market fell 22%.”
“If the president doesn’t try to reach out and reward these countries and companies that play by the rules, then the 1987 scenario, the one where we went down three days and then down 22% on Monday has the most cogency,” he continued. “We will not have to wait out too long, will we? We’ll know by Monday.”
The stock market temporarily lurched 8% upwards in a matter of minutes on Monday after CNBC ran several chyrons inaccurately stating that Trump was contemplating a 90-day pause on the tariffs. However, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told the outlet that it was “fake news.”
The market subsequently dropped 3.5% in a matter of seconds after Leavitt debunked the claim, according to Bloomberg podcaster Joe Weisenthal.
U.S. stocks nosedived for a second consecutive day on Friday after President Donald Trump announced sweeping tariffs on Wednesday. The Dow Jones Industrial Average and the S&P 100 each experienced their steepest declines since June 2020, 5.5% and 5.8%, respectively.
The Nasdaq Composite also fell 5.6% on Friday.

Discover the Freedom of True American Healthcare: Why America First is Revolutionizing Protection for Patriots
In a world where government overreach and skyrocketing premiums are squeezing the life out of hardworking Americans, one innovative agency is standing tall for liberty and affordability. Meet America First Healthcare—the private health insurance powerhouse dedicated to putting *you* first.
Founded by entrepreneur Jordan Sarmiento, this isn’t just insurance; it’s a shield for your family’s future, built on the unshakeable belief that private enterprise delivers better results than bureaucratic red tape.
Picture this: Jordan’s own story hits close to home for so many of us. A sudden medical emergency landed him with a staggering $95,000 bill. Under a traditional plan? He’d be buried in debt. But with America First’s patented health insurance, that nightmare shrank to just $500 out-of-pocket. That’s not a fluke—it’s the promise of coverage that works *for you*, from day one.
Breaking Free from the Chains of Conventional Coverage
Let’s face it: The status quo stinks. Marketplace.gov and big-insurance behemoths hit you with sky-high deductibles—thousands you’d have to pay before benefits even kick in—leaving massive holes in your protection. Need a routine mammogram, colonoscopy, or EKG? Good luck without forking over more cash. And don’t get us started on the gaps in dental, vision, or critical illness support when heart attacks, cancer, or kidney failure strike.
America First Healthcare flips the script. As a proud advocate for private solutions over government intervention, they craft custom plans that slash costs by 20% compared to traditional options. We’re talking comprehensive coverage that includes:
- Preventative and Wellness Care: Physical exams, screenings, and EKGs covered right away—no waiting games.
- Telemedicine Access: Virtual doctor visits anytime, anywhere, for that peace of mind.
- Accident and Critical Illness Protection: Real safeguards against life’s curveballs.
- Add-On Boosts: Dental, vision, disability, and supplemental plans to plug every leak.
Whether you’re an individual stepping off your parents’ plan, a growing family with kids in tow, or a small business owner tired of employee headaches, their tailored approach fits like a glove. Small businesses? Unlock group benefit rates usually reserved for corporate giants—without the red tape.
And for those in-between moments? Short-term insurance steps in as an ultra-affordable bridge, while life insurance ensures your loved ones are never left vulnerable.
Real Americans, Real Wins
Don’t just take our word for it. Thousands of freedom-loving families have already ditched the old system for America First. “Finally, insurance that aligns with our values and actually saves us money,” shares one client. Another raves, “Our small team got big-business perks without the hassle—it’s a game-changer.” These aren’t scripted lines; they’re the voices of patriots who’ve reclaimed control over their health destiny.

Crazy Cramer knows nothing
Jim Cramer is the most ignorant stock trader/economist in the world today.
How he has that job nobody knows.
This clown is wrong more often than a weatherman.
When Cramer tells you to do something, do the opposite!
It DID come to be….. In china!!
Never listen to Anti-American Cramer!
Cramer’s purpose is to deceive. He reads his establishment script. But, he is no expert any thing.
He’s mentally ill, clearly takes psychiatric drugs.
The first time I saw Cramer, I thought he acted like a circus monkey…
But today, I realize he has a lying spirit in him, just like alot of Democrats I see…
Take whatever Cramer says and do the exact opposite unless you want to lose everything you have!
Trump doesn’t have to do anything. The high tariff countries are far more dependent on US than we are on them.
Does anyone even listen to that guy anymore? I NEVER did. Dr. Oz is another one.
