Jim Cramer Says You Should ‘Hold On’ to FTAI Aviation (FTAI)

We recently published a list of 10 Jim Cramer Stocks to Watch This Month. In this article, we are going to take a look at where FTAI Aviation Ltd. (NASDAQ:FTAI) stands against other stocks that Jim Cramer discusses.

Jim Cramer recently talked about the market selloff and how years of profits are lost within days when panic hits the market:

“They wipe out these gains pretty easily, don’t they? Just like that, the sellers take away months, if not years, of profits because they want to get ahead of a potential recession. And then they swap into the safety stocks that thrive in a slowdown. Welcome to the world of recession preparation, where it doesn’t matter what prices you get on the sales or the buys as long as they get done.”

Cramer said that while he agrees with the broader tariff policies of President Trump, he does not like the “way” he’s implementing them.

“I don’t think that Trump will start going easier on our trading partners just because the Dow’s been eviscerated. He’s not sacrificing our trade policy on a cross of gold — meaning, of course, higher stock prices. Of course, not many investors saw this coming, and that’s incredible to me. And the shock from Trump’s change in attitude has terrified the moneymen — the big moneymen,” Cramer added.

Disclosure: None. This article is originally published at Insider Monkey.

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.
