Cramer commented on Toll Brothers, Inc. (NYSE:TOL) as part of a broader discussion about the weak homebuilding industry:

“And we are dealing with really fine companies. This is not the Toll Brothers of the old, that Toll was never bad. But, Toll Brothers, Lennar, these are really good companies. And they’ve become very acyclical. But, you know the average house is 44 years old, you would think that people are trying to sell it. People aren’t doing rennovation repair like they used to. That’s a market that has entirely stalled. And when you hear Gary Friedman [RH CEO], I know a lot of people feel he was too bombastic. . .but he’s right, the turnover, there’s just no turnover in this country.”

3. Lennar Corporation (NYSE:LEN)

Number of Hedge Fund Holdings in Q4 2025: 68

Homebuilding giant Lennar Corporation (NYSE:LEN)’s shares are down by 14% year-to-date. Investment bank Goldman Sachs had discussed the firm on January 13th as it hiked the share price target to $125 from $120 and kept a Neutral rating on the shares. Goldman outlined that the homebuilding industry could suffer from margin difficulties as the firms were forced to rely on incentives to operate in a weak housing market.

The CNBC TV host has discussed high housing prices among some of the factors that have made it difficult for the firm. in this appearance, he praised Lennar Corporation (NYSE:LEN) but pointed towards a tough environment:

“But, Toll Brothers, Lennar, these are really good companies. And they’ve become very acyclical. But, you know the average house is 44 years old, you would think that people are trying to sell it. People aren’t doing rennovation repair like they used to. That’s a market that has entirely stalled. And when you hear Gary Friedman, I know a lot of people feel he was too bombastic. . .but he’s right, the turnover, there’s just no turnover in this country.”

ClearBridge Select Strategy also discussed Lennar Corporation (NYSE:LEN) in its fourth quarter 2025 investor letter:

“Advance Auto Parts†, Jacobs Solutions (J; 2.08%**), and Lennar Corporation (NYSE:LEN) (LEN; 0.96%**) were the weakest performers in the quarter. Lennar shares fell late in the quarter after the company offered weaker-than-expected guidance across orders, deliveries, and margins in the company’s fiscal first quarter. Management noted that the housing market remains challenging, despite interest rates continuing to come down.”

2. Netflix, Inc. (NASDAQ:NFLX)

Number of Hedge Fund Holdings in Q4 2025: 146

Streaming giant Netflix, Inc. (NASDAQ:NFLX) is one of Jim Cramer’s favorite stocks in the space. The CNBC TV host praised the firm throughout 2025 due to its market share and dominance in the industry. Netflix, Inc.

“I’d rather take the rate of return, which has been doing incredibly well.”

Oakmark Fund discussed Netflix, Inc. (NASDAQ:NFLX) in its Q1 2026 investor letter:

“Netflix, Inc. (NASDAQ:NFLX) is the leading streaming entertainment service with over 325 million subscribers and $45 billion of revenue. This scale creates a valuable moat, in our view. Netflix buys more content than its competitors in aggregate but pays less per subscriber, creating a valuable customer proposition as the business grows. Still, the stock declined significantly over the past several months as market participants focused on slowing engagement and the company’s approach to buy Warner Bros, creating an attractive buying opportunity in our view. We are confident that Netflix’s engagement remains strong and believed that the shares looked attractive with or without the acquisition. We find the business attractive as it is trading for its lowest relative valuation since 2022, a period that produced strong subsequent returns.”

1. Morgan Stanley (NYSE:MS)

Number of Hedge Fund Holdings in Q4 2025: 80

Investment bank Morgan Stanley (NYSE:MS)’s stock is up by a strong 73% over the past year and by 5% year-to-date. The year-to-date gains have come on the back of a 16% surge in April.

RBC commented that the investment bank’s diversified business model enabled it to post strong earnings results for the fourth quarter of 2025. More recently, Cramer has started to point towards the impact that a strong IPO market can have on Morgan Stanley (NYSE:MS) as he commented during the episode:

“There’s a fabulous piece out there, UBS, upgrading Hold to Buy, Morgan Stanley. And they’re talking about best in class IPO. Their gonna have some very sexy IPOs. They’re also talking about tremendous growth in wealth management. They’re also talking about. . .a huge amount of M&A, I think David may agree with me. When this war is over, you’re going to see a level of M&A that may be radical as people realize, all clear. . .but I think the companies are saying, you know what, we’re getting a once in a lifetime opportunity to get, let’s call our banker, let’s call Morgan Stanley and let’s buy our biggest competitor and let’s you know, get it so that we can raise price. Cause it’s about time. I mean, let’s get scale. . .”

Baron Financials ETF discussed Morgan Stanley (NYSE:MS) in its fourth quarter 2025 investor letter:

“During the quarter, the Fund invested in Morgan Stanley (NYSE:MS), a leading global investment bank and wealth management firm. Morgan Stanley has successfully diversified its business beyond cyclical banking and trading fees into more recurring wealth and investment management. These businesses collectively oversee $9.3 trillion in client assets that generate predictable, capital light revenue that grows from inflows and market appreciation. Morgan Stanley has a unique client acquisition model that includes financial advisors, self-directed accounts, and workplace accounts, providing multiple avenues to serve clients. In 2025, the company amassed over $350 billion in net new assets, with a 7% net inflow rate in the fourth quarter. These businesses provide a durable base of revenue and earnings for Morgan Stanley even when banking activity is slow. At the same time, Morgan Stanley remains a top three global investment bank, enabling the firm to generate considerably higher earnings during periods of strength in the capital markets.”

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

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.

The best part? You can discover everything about this company and its groundbreaking technology right now.

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.
