As market volatility rises amid tariff concerns and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/03/44348164/why-millions-of-americans-are-tapping-their-401k-savings-early">retirement account withdrawals hit record highs</a>, Jim Cramer advocates for greater political consideration of investor interests, challenging the notion that stock market participants are exclusively wealthy elites.
What Happened: CNBC&#8217;s &#8220;Mad Money&#8221; host Cramer <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/04/29/jim-cramer-politicians-shouldnt-forget-shareholders-are-a-constituency.html?ref=biztoc.com">said</a> on Tuesday that politicians should acknowledge and respect investors&#8217; interests, emphasizing that &#8220;shareholders are a constituency&#8221; that deserves representation. 
&#8220;We should be considered. It&#8217;s not just arrogant rich people who own stocks. In fact, the mega-rich love to come on the air and tell you the stock market is too dangerous,&#8221; Cramer stated during his broadcast.
Cramer criticized both major political parties for failing to champion investors, noting that while President Donald Trump <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/04/45060579/nvidia-johnson-johnson-hyundai-toyota-softbank-ceos-to-join-trump-at-white-house-as-he-touts-investment-surge-in-first-100-days-report">invited CEOs to the White House</a>, he also imposed significant tariffs on their goods. He suggested former President Joe Biden was even more unwelcoming to big business during his administration.
Cramer&#8217;s comments come as the S&amp;P 500, tracked by SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>), has fallen 5.24% year-to-date, closing at 5,560 on Tuesday amid escalating trade tensions with China following Trump&#8217;s tariff announcement. Meanwhile, the tech-heavy Nasdaq-100, tracked by Invesco QQQ Trust (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>), is down 6.82%, closing at 19,544.

Why It Matters: Cramer&#8217;s advocacy for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/23/12/36295790/jim-cramer-slams-ftc-chair-lina-khans-policies-for-hampering-investor-returns-one-w?utm_source=chatgpt.com">shareholder interests follows his recent criticism</a> of former Federal Trade Commission Chair Lina Khan&#8216;s opposition to mergers and acquisitions, which he described as &#8220;a one-woman wrecking crew for your stock portfolio&#8221; that primarily benefits &#8220;the largest, wealthiest companies&#8221; who can afford litigation costs.
Meanwhile, Vanguard Group data shows a record 4.8% of 401(k) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/03/44348164/why-millions-of-americans-are-tapping-their-401k-savings-early">account holders took hardship withdrawals in 2023</a>, more than double pre-pandemic rates, despite average balances increasing by 10% to a record $148,153. 
Financial author Ramit Sethi warns Trump's proposed tariffs could cost median U.S. households over $2,500 a year, hitting lower-income Americans hardest. He urges calm in markets but <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/04/44852424/you-could-literally-cost-yourself-millions-finance-expert-warns-against-panic-decision-on-trump-tariffs">recommends a 12-month emergency fund</a>—advice he's only given during the COVID-19 crisis

Snap Inc.'s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SNAP#NYSE">SNAP</a>) My AI, which faced significant backlash upon its launch, has now experienced a surge in daily active users, growing 55% year-over-year in the U.S.
What Happened: On Tuesday, during<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/social-media/25/04/45084721/snap-hits-900-million-users-beats-q1-estimates-but-stock-slides-on-uncertainty"> Snap's first-quarter 2025 earnings</a> call, CEO Evan Spiegel highlighted how the feature's improvements, such as enhanced multimodal capabilities, have fueled its growing popularity.
&#8220;These improvements in My AI responsiveness resulted in an increase of more than 55% year-over-year in the number of My AI daily active users in the U.S,&#8221; he said.

In the long term, Snap is heavily investing in the integration of AI with augmented reality, he said. &#8220;We&#8217;ll have more announcements around that later this year because we really do believe that augmented reality is the ideal interface for AI.&#8221;

Why It&#8217;s Important: Snapchat&#8217;s My AI, powered by OpenAI's GPT models, was initially met with criticism, particularly due to its unavoidable presence at the top of chats for paying users.
Some parents also expressed concerns about the difficulty of teaching kids to differentiate between human interactions and AI, especially since the chatbot appears so lifelike, <a href="https://edition.cnn.com/2023/04/27/tech/snapchat-my-ai-concerns-wellness/index.html">reported</a> CNN.
Snap reported first-quarter revenue of $1.36 billion, marking a 14% increase year-over-year and surpassing Wall Street expectations, which had pegged revenue at $1.35 billion.
The company also saw strong user growth, reaching 460 million daily active users by the end of the first quarter, up 9% from the same period last year. It also crossed a key milestone with over 900 million monthly active users, bringing the platform closer to its long-term target of one billion MAUs.
Price Action: Snap shares have fallen 19.13% year-to-date in 2025 and are down 39.6% over the past 12 months. While the stock rose 2.94% during Tuesday's regular trading session, it plunged 14.41% in after-hours trading, dropping to $7.78, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a>.
In Benzinga Edge's Stock Rankings, Snap holds a growth score of 41.30% and a momentum score of 18.48%. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/premium/ideas/benzinga-edge-2#:~:text=Turn%20Market%20Chaos,when%20markets%20rebound">Click here to see how it compares with competitors</a>.

House Republicans unveiled legislation on Monday aimed at overhauling the federal student loan system, promising over $330 billion in savings while supporting President Donald Trump&#8216;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/44944580/trump-says-tariffs-could-replace-income-tax-experts-warn-the-math-doesnt-work">tax cut extension agenda</a>.
What Happened: Education and Workforce Committee Chairman Tim Walberg (R-MI) introduced the &#8220;Student Success and Taxpayer Savings Plan,&#8221; which focuses on reforming postsecondary education through strengthened accountability, streamlined loan options, and simplified repayment structures.
&#8220;For decades Congress has responded to the student loan crisis by throwing more taxpayer dollars at the problem—never addressing the root causes of skyrocketing college costs,&#8221; Walberg said. &#8220;It&#8217;s time to fix this broken cycle that is costly to taxpayers and leaves students worse off.&#8221;
The proposal comes amid major changes to federal education oversight. Trump has already reduced the Department of Education&#8217;s workforce by nearly half since beginning his second term and announced <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/education/25/03/44444175/trump-orders-steps-to-dismantle-department-of-education-what-it-means-for-student-loans">plans to transfer federal student loan</a> servicing to the Small Business Administration.

Why It Matters: Analysis from the Student Borrower Protection Center suggests the legislation would significantly increase costs for borrowers. A typical college graduate would pay an additional $2,928 annually compared to the current SAVE repayment plan, while a family of four headed by a degree-holder would pay $4,786 more per year.
The legislation impacts approximately 42.7 million Americans holding $1.7 trillion in federal student loan debt. Eight million borrowers whose payments are currently paused due to litigation would collectively face about $41.5 billion in additional <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/02/43893926/you-can-be-a-student-without-a-student-loan-dave-ramseys-advice-to-paying-cash-for-college">payments in the first year alone</a>.
The House committee is scheduled to mark up the bill today. The legislation aligns with broader Republican economic priorities, including extending Trump-era <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/44944580/trump-says-tariffs-could-replace-income-tax-experts-warn-the-math-doesnt-work">tax cuts while reducing federal spending</a>.
