Calling AbbVie Inc. (NYSE:ABBV) one of his “absolute favorites” during the recent episode of Mad Money, Cramer said:

“Or how about one of my absolute favorites right here too, AbbVie. Now here's a drug company with no patent cliff in sight whatsoever. Got tremendous franchises in neurology, oncology, immunology, and medical aesthetics, among others. Because of today's vicious bond market-inspired selloff, this fine stock's down a quick 10 points today or more than 5%, but it only yields 3.7%. With rates going higher, you have to wonder if AbbVie's worth the risk, even as it's among the safest, if not the safest stock in the group, because of these amazing franchises.Jim Cramer On AbbVie: Makes "Sense To Start a Position in the Stock"
