Cramer advises on waiting before buying Twitter Inc. (NYSE:TWTR)’s stock, until it drops below the $38 margin that is currently trading at. Cramer remains Bearish on Twitter on the fact that it is 40% down this year. Twitter is set to report its earnings awaiting to see the impact of the just concluded World cup Bonanza on its revenue, especially on the advertisement segment.
“Frankly, I would not recommend buying Twitter until it drops back to the low thirties from the $38 it is now. Until then, you have a Facebook Inc. (NASDAQ:FB) why do you need Twitter Inc. (NYSE:TWTR),” said Cramer.
Twitter Inc. (NYSE:TWTR) prospects with investors could improve if it were able to show that it offered the best avenue for Users and Advertisers on the just concluded World Cup event. Many investors would wish to hear that the slowing user growth is just a transition period that would pass sooner than later. If Twitter Inc.
