Number of Hedge Fund Holders: 37

AeroVironment, Inc. (NASDAQ:AVAV) is one of the stocks Jim Cramer talked about. When a caller asked for Cramer’s thoughts on the stock, he said:

“But I got to tell you, you got a lucky break. After the close, we heard from President Trump, said he wants to make the defense budget go up dramatically, like $500 billion. And I got to tell you something, the stock, which went out at $318 at 4:00, it’s trading right now at $335. And there’s nothing funky about that. That’s a terrific company. We have them all the time. All I can say is congratulations. Think about how much money… [the caller] just made.”

AeroVironment, Inc. (NASDAQ:AVAV) develops robotic and autonomous systems, including uncrewed aircraft, counter-UAS tools, precision-strike solutions, advanced AI, and autonomy. In addition, the company provides space, cyber, communications, and intelligence systems used in defense and commercial applications. Cramer called it a “very compelling growth story” during the episode aired on December 9, 2025. He remarked:

“What do we make of these numbers from AV, the old AeroVironment? The drone maker reported a mixed quarter, management cut their full-year earnings forecast. Long term, though, I think this remains a very compelling growth story.”
