AAR Corp. (NYSE:AIR) is one of the stocks Jim Cramer was recently asked about. When a caller asked if they should buy AIR shares, Cramer remarked:

I’ve been recommending AIR forever, and we know it’s up 27% for the year. I saw that Gold, I think it was Goldman that started it with a Neutral. This thing is can’t miss. We had John Holmes on recently, and it is just part of the great aerospace boom that it has no sign of slowing down.

AAR Corp. (NYSE:AIR) supplies aircraft parts and components for commercial and defense aviation and offers services ranging from airframe inspections to interior refurbishments. Fred Alger Management stated the following regarding AAR Corp. (NYSE:AIR) in its fourth quarter 2025 investor letter:

AAR Corp. (NYSE:AIR) is a global aerospace and defense aftermarket services provider that supports commercial airlines and government customers through parts distribution and supply-chain solutions, as well as maintenance, repair, and overhaul services—an area we believe is structurally supported by high aircraft utilization and an aging fleet. During the quarter, shares detracted from performance amid investor uncertainty following the company’s early-December announcement of a Chief Financial Officer transition; however, we believe underlying demand trends across AAR’s end markets remain healthy.
