We recently compiled a list of the 10 Jim Cramer Stocks with Huge Upside Potential. In this article, we are going to take a look at where Tyler Technologies, Inc. (NYSE:TYL) stands against the other Jim Cramer stocks with huge upside potential.

During the episode of Mad Money aired on Wednesday, Jim Cramer broke down what he considers some of the most effective practices for buying stocks.

“I want to pull back the curtain and show you how a professional looks for stocks to buy and knows what to sell. There's no magic. There's no hidden talent. Just a bunch of disciplines, disciplines that can help you try to make mad money if you master them.”

Cramer stressed the importance of conducting thorough research before committing to any stock purchase. He emphasized that investors must truly believe in the stock they are buying, even if that belief is rooted in skepticism, so long as they are convinced the price will rise and that the stock deserves that rise. He warned, however, that conviction is not enough on its own when a stock has pulled back from its high. If the decline is unrelated to the company's actual business, which he described as an “extraneous” reason, it may present an opportunity.

“Be certain you're dealing with a momentarily damaged stock and not a troubled company that's going down, down, down. How can you tell the difference between a damaged company and a damaged stock? The fundamentals haven't changed, the stock probably hasn't fallen from grace. It's pulled back for mechanical reasons, profit taking, or some panic in the market in general.”

Cramer pointed out that modern markets are heavily influenced by highly levered hedge funds, which treat stocks like commodities. He said that such behavior leads to irrational sell-offs that can drag high-quality stocks down for reasons unrelated to their financial health. Still, he cautioned that once a stock’s fundamentals begin to shift, if the qualities that originally made it appealing no longer exist, then it is no longer suitable for inclusion in a portfolio.
