5. Robinhood Markets Inc (NASDAQ:HOOD)

Number of Hedge Fund Investors: 28

Jim Cramer was recently asked about his thoughts on Robinhood Markets Inc (NASDAQ:HOOD). Cramer said Robinhood Markets Inc’s (NASDAQ:HOOD) platform has “too much exposure” to options and Bitcoin. Cramer said Robinhood Markets Inc (NASDAQ:HOOD) should have more exposure to “basic customers.” He recommended the questioner to buy Charles Schwab instead.

As of the end of the third quarter of 2023, 28 hedge funds out of the 910 funds tracked by Insider Monkey had stakes in Robinhood Markets Inc (NASDAQ:HOOD). The most notable hedge fund stakeholder of Robinhood Markets Inc (NASDAQ:HOOD) during this period was Catherine D. Wood’s ARK Investment Management which owns a $322 million stake in Robinhood Markets Inc (NASDAQ:HOOD).

4. Fluor Corp (NYSE:FLR)

Number of Hedge Fund Investors: 31

Engineering and construction company Fluor Corp (NYSE:FLR) is one of the companies Jim Cramer is recommending investors to stay away from. Answering a question about Fluor Corp (NYSE:FLR) in a program last month, Cramer said Fluor Corp (NYSE:FLR) has “missed the quarter more times than, I think, they have made the quarter.” Cramer said even though he likes the infrastructure theme he’d still recommend staying away from the stock.

The biggest stakeholder of Fluor Corp (NYSE:FLR) during this period was Israel Englander’s Millennium Management which owns a $123 million stake in Fluor Corp (NYSE:FLR).

3. Ferrari NV (NYSE:RACE)

“I’m going to have to say let’s take a pass on Ferrari.”

2. Illumina Inc. (NASDAQ:ILMN)

Number of Hedge Fund Investors: 40

California-based biotechnology company Illumina Inc. (NASDAQ:ILMN) ranks second in our list of the stocks Jim Cramer is bearish on. Recently, a caller asked Cramer in his program about his thoughts on Illumina Inc. (NASDAQ:ILMN).

The analyst said Illumina Inc. (NASDAQ:ILMN) is a “second rate Danaher” and while there’s no harm investing in second rate companies for now Cramer thinks it’s best to just go for Danaher and said “we are not gonna go by Illumina.”

Cramer said for now we are going to put the “second raters” aside for a moment. Jim Cramer has long been a believer of buying best of breed stocks in different sectors and his thoughts on Illumina Inc. (NASDAQ:ILMN) allude to a similar thesis.

In early January Cramer said that Illumina’s story is uncertaint and “too messy.”

Patient Capital Management stated the following regarding Illumina, Inc. (NASDAQ:ILMN) in its fourth quarter 2023 investor letter:

“We entered Illumina, Inc. (NASDAQ:ILMN), another healthcare name, in the quarter. A previous market darling, Illumina has declined from a high of $524 in 2021 to a low of $92 in 2023. We started adding near the lows. The company is a leader in genomic sequencing but made an ill-advised acquisition of Grail, a blood-based multi-cancer early detection product, in 2021 for $8 billion. The company completed the acquisition before European regulators could complete their antitrust review setting off years of regulatory back and forth. A new management team, new board members, an activist campaign, and an ordered divestiture of Grail later, and we believe we were able to buy a market-leading compounder at the point of maximum pessimism. Despite increased competition in the genome sequencing space, Illumina continues to be a leader with ~80% market share today. With the divestment of Grail, the company will return to a pure-play sequencing company with a drastically improved margin and FCF profile (22% operating margins core ILMN vs 8% with Grail) since Grail has been a cash drag of >$600m annually. Ex-Grail, we believed we were paying a market multiple on 2025 earnings for a market leader with strong cash generation and significant future growth potential.”

1. Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:TSLA)

Number of Hedge Fund Investors: 81

Jim Cramer has been bearish on Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:TSLA) since the start of the year as he famously excluded Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:TSLA) from his list of favorite Mag. 7 stocks. After Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:TSLA) posted fourth quarter results that missed estimates on both EPS and revenue, Jim Cramer tweeted:

“We could look the other way and just decide this Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:TSLA) quarter was an anomaly. Or we could just say “and then there were six.” But to ignore what is happening to Tesla Inc’s (NASDAQ:TSLA) stock or to avert your ears from last night’s call seems too glib right now.”

The fourth quarter was also worrying for many Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:TSLA) bulls and several analysts said Tesla Inc’s (NASDAQ:TSLA) guidance shows signs of trouble ahead.

As of the end of the third quarter of 2023, 81 hedge funds out of the 910 funds tracked by Insider Monkey had stakes in Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:TSLA).

O’keefe Stevens Advisory stated the following regarding Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA) in its fourth quarter 2023 investor letter:

“In my Q4 2022, l made three predictions: 1. One of our top 25 holdings gets acquired 2. TSLA is a sub $200B market cap by the end of 2023 3. Crypto, the final blow.

Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA) is a sub $200B market cap by the end of 2023. Grade: D. TSLA performed contrary to expectations, appreciating approximately 100% in 2023 and ending the year with an $880 billion market cap. We were “just a bit outside,” but I’m not convinced our reasoning was flawed.

The typical strong correlation between earnings estimates and stock prices did not hold for TSLA during the year. Positive revisions suggest a company outperformed expectations, resulting in a higher price/valuation. Negative revisions suggested estimates were too high, and the stock should decline to meet a weaker outlook…” (Click here to read the full text)

The $250 Trillion AI Hype is Real. A few years from now, you’ll probably wish you’d bought this stock.

Published on May 16, 2026 at by Inan Dogan, PhD

Co-Founder and Research Director at Insider Monkey

When Jeff Bezos said that one breakthrough technology would shape Amazon’s destiny, even Wall Street’s biggest analysts were caught off guard.

Fast forward a year and Amazon’s new CEO Andy Jassy described generative AI as a “once-in-a-lifetime” technology that is already being used across Amazon to reinvent customer experiences.

At the 8th Future Investment Initiative conference, Elon Musk predicted that by 2040 there would be at least 10 billion humanoid robots, with each priced between $20,000 and $25,000.

Do the math. According to Musk, this technology could be worth $250 trillion by 2040.

Put another way, that’s roughly equal to:

175 Teslas
107 Amazons
140 Metas
84 Googles
65 Microsofts
And 55 Nvidias

And here’s the wild part — this $250 trillion wave isn’t tied to one company, but to an entire ecosystem of AI innovators set to reshape the global economy.

It’s a leap so massive, it could reshape how businesses, governments, and consumers operate worldwide.

Even if that $250 trillion figure sounds ambitious, major firms like PwC and McKinsey still see AI unlocking multi-trillion-dollar potential.

How could anything be worth that much?

The answer lies in a breakthrough so powerful it’s redefining how humanity works, learns, and creates.

And this breakthrough has already set off a frenzy among hedge funds and Wall Street’s top investors.

What most investors don’t realize is that one under-owned company holds the key to this $250 trillion revolution.

In fact, Verge argues this company’s supercheap AI technology should concern rivals.

Before I reveal the details, let’s talk about how some of the richest people on the planet are positioning themselves.

Bill Gates sees artificial intelligence as the “biggest technological advance in my lifetime,” more transformative than the internet or personal computer, capable of improving healthcare, education, and addressing climate change.
Larry Ellison — through Oracle, is spending billions on Nvidia chips and partnering with Cohere to embed generative AI across Oracle’s cloud and apps.
Warren Buffett — not known for tech hype — says this breakthrough could have a ‘hugely beneficial social impact.

When billionaires from Silicon Valley to Wall Street line up behind the same idea — you know it’s worth paying attention to.

Even as we admire what Tesla, Nvidia, Alphabet, and Microsoft have built, we believe an even greater opportunity lies elsewhere…

But the real story isn’t Nvidia — it’s a much smaller company quietly improving the critical technology that makes this entire revolution possible.

And judging by what I’m hearing from both Silicon Valley insiders and Wall Street veterans…

This prediction might not be bold at all:

A few years from now, you’ll wish you’d owned this stock.

Buy This $3 Stock Now Before the 400% Surge Begins

My name is Inan Dogan. I’m the co-founder and Research Director of Insider Monkey. I have an important message for you today.

Since March 2017, my stock picks have returned 16.5% annually. Today, I’ve found an opportunity even bigger than my British American Tobacco call.

Two years ago, Wall Street wrote off British American Tobacco (BTI) as a “melting ice cube.” The stock had crashed 40% from its peak, and consensus said the business was dying.

We looked under the cover and realized they were wrong.

We alerted our subscribers, and BTI returned 90% in just 16 months.

Now if you had invested just $10,000 in BTI in June 2024, you’d be sitting on $19,000 in October 2025.

Today, we have identified a nearly identical pattern in a digital-first giant trading at $3.

While the market panics over a surface-level revenue decline, our PhD-led research shows management has actually surgically cut $100 million in waste to focus on high-margin growth.

This pattern is a hallmark of our 16.5% annual return track record. The current opportunity offers a 400% upside potential—dwarfing even our 90% BTI return.

Get the ticker for our new “Underdog” pick and the full BTI case study for just 99 cents.
