Jim Cramer’s 16 Stock Calls, Including NVIDIA, Coterra, and Honeywell

In this article, we will look at Jim Cramer’s recent stock calls on Mad Money. On Friday, the host of Mad Money discussed the market’s relentless climb amid war-driven volatility, the reopening of oil routes, a pickup in IPO activity, and a shift in gold buying from protection to speculation.

Think of the trajectory of this monster. The market plummeted on the war, then rallied during the war, even as the Iranians blocked the Strait of Hormuz, stopping all oil exports from the Gulf except for their own. Then we rallied on the truce, where the Strait stayed closed. And then we rallied more on the opening of the Strait and what seemed to be the end of the war. With this kind of bullishness, the market rallying endlessly no matter what happened, I wonder if we would rally on the ceremony to end the war or at least the President’s press conference to salute the troops who served in the war.

Cramer also highlighted several developments unfolding at once: the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, a sharp drop in oil prices, and major indexes surging. He also said the IPO market is gaining momentum, with five sizable IPOs beginning to trade within just a few days. Cramer also said he still views gold as a form of insurance, but noted that the composition of investors has shifted. He explained that gold holders now resemble those in Bitcoin.

Now, we got that from Agnico Eagle; it’s not my analysis, but it does work… The people who buy gold are now spec, spec, spec. They are not insurance, insurance, insurance because gold’s been so hot. That’s what happens when you have something as hot as gold. You start attracting different kinds of buyers. Hold on to your gold. Those people will be shaken out the next time we have a 25% shortfall in gold… you know, a drawdown. Just stay with gold. It’s still good, but understand that’s what’s happening.

Jim Cramer’s 16 Stock Calls, Including NVIDIA, Coterra, and Honeywell

16. NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA)

NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA) was among Jim Cramer’s recent stock calls on Mad Money. Cramer recommended buying the stock on any dip, as he stated:

NVIDIA’s the answer to so many of the problems that these big hyperscaler companies have… This isn’t a zeitgeist play; it’s a pure earning story. Ben Reitzes from Melius Research, the man who was really on board the earliest on NVIDIA, says NVIDIA’s doing so well, yet it only sells at 15 times earnings, well shy of the average stock of the S&P 500. That’s just plain crazy. We have to wait until May 20th to see the actual numbers, but I think you want to own it ahead of time. Buy it on any dip. Hurting NVIDIA is a perception that Google and Amazon are moving away from the company, developing their own chips. The reality is that both companies are huge NVIDIA clients. They aren’t going anywhere. Reitzes is looking for OpenAI to come into NVIDIA big with its next software iteration. He says there could be many more big customers coming.

The total addressable market for NVIDIA’s products keeps expanding. It must be exhausting to be NVIDIA’s CEO Jensen Huang, who’s out there endlessly explaining the fourth industrial revolution, and how it’s all built on the back of NVIDIA. He’s constantly challenged by analysts and commentators who are so off base and they just don’t, they don’t understand the premise. I watched him have to debate a host who was talking about how good the Amazon and Google chips are. Jensen retorted that if they’re so good, why aren’t they willing to benchmark them with the organizations that measure these things? It’s NVIDIA that’s willing to be benchmarked, and they always come up aces. There are plenty of stocks to buy to participate in the fourth industrial revolution. Just remember, though, there would be no revolution without NVIDIA.

NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA) develops accelerated computing and AI platforms, GPUs for gaming and professional use, cloud services, robotics and embedded systems, and automotive technologies.

15. Copart, Inc. (NASDAQ:CPRT)

Copart, Inc. (NASDAQ:CPRT) was among Jim Cramer’s recent stock calls on Mad Money. Toward the end of the lightning round, when a caller asked about the stock, Cramer said:

Yeah, you know they took apart Copart. It’s an insurance company with vehicle supplies. I want to buy that stock. It’s too cheap. I think you got a good one with Copart. It’s, I think you’re buying it right at the bottom.

Copart, Inc. (NASDAQ:CPRT) runs an online auction platform that uses proprietary technology to help sellers process and remarket salvage and used vehicles. ClearBridge Investments stated the following regarding Copart, Inc. (NASDAQ:CPRT) in its fourth quarter 2025 investor letter:

Auto salvage and auction provider Copart, Inc. (NASDAQ:CPRT) fell as volumes at its key insurance customers declined slightly in the second half of the year due to the number of uninsured drivers increasing after several years of massive insurance premium inflation. We believe this is a temporary and self-correcting situation rather than a secular issue and, with Copart having over $5 billion of net cash and a very attractive valuation, we are continuing to hold shares.

14. Aehr Test Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:AEHR)

Aehr Test Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:AEHR) was among Jim Cramer’s recent stock calls on Mad Money. A caller sought Cramer’s take on the stock, and here’s what he had to say in response:

You know, testing memory has always been something that Agilent did. They’re in that business right now. These guys, the stock has run too much. It went parabolic. We have to wait. I wish I didn’t have to say it, but we have to wait.

Aehr Test Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:AEHR) develops solutions for testing and stabilizing semiconductor devices at various stages, such as the full-wafer or individual-die level.

13. ImmunityBio, Inc. (NASDAQ:IBRX)

ImmunityBio, Inc. (NASDAQ:IBRX) was among Jim Cramer’s recent stock calls on Mad Money. Answering a caller’s query about the stock during the recent lightning round, Cramer said:

You know there’s a lot of dispute about what they did. And I’m going to tell you that it is not clear exactly what they did wrong, but they got in trouble… I got to see how they get out of trouble, and then we’ll take a hard look at it.

ImmunityBio, Inc. (NASDAQ:IBRX) develops therapies designed to strengthen the immune system against infectious diseases and several cancers. A caller mentioned their small position in the stock and inquired about it during the March 27 episode. The Mad Money host replied:

Okay, that is a pure spec…. I would encourage you to own it, provided you don’t own any other spec, because that company is losing a lot of money.

12. Oddity Tech Ltd. (NASDAQ:ODD)

Oddity Tech Ltd. (NASDAQ:ODD) was among Jim Cramer’s recent stock calls on Mad Money. A caller asked whether to sell, hold, or add to a position in the stock after it fell 60% following his earlier recommendation. Cramer replied:

Yeah, that, I tell you, that one just completely, I was shocked. I mean, it was just a huge guide down. I didn’t see it coming. Frankly, that industry is now, I mean Estee Lauder, e.l.f., ODD, it’s just too hard. And that was my bad, that I just did not realize how hard. We had them on the show. I thought they told a very good story, but the story did not pan out. That’s going to happen. That’s not what I want, but it happened.

Oddity Tech Ltd. (NASDAQ:ODD) develops digital-first beauty and wellness brands using AI-driven technology to create personalized products. During the March 3 episode, a caller asked if it was a good time to start a position in the stock, and Cramer responded:

You know what, I gotta tell you… that quarter was so bad that my rule is you gotta wait another full quarter before you put that money in… You’re right to think about Oddity, but I want you to think higher quality. I would even buy Ulta, okay? I like Ulta. I like CVS, too.

11. Vertex Pharmaceuticals Incorporated (NASDAQ:VRTX)

Vertex Pharmaceuticals Incorporated (NASDAQ:VRTX) was among Jim Cramer’s recent stock calls on Mad Money. During the lightning round, a caller asked for Cramer’s thoughts on the stock, and he said:

I think Vertex is very strong. I wish I had bought it for the Charitable Trust a long time ago, when we had the CEO on. It was an excellent call, and then I got cold feet. That was a mistake. It’s a good buy.

Vertex Pharmaceuticals Incorporated (NASDAQ:VRTX) develops and commercializes transformative medicines for serious conditions, including cystic fibrosis, sickle cell disease, and acute pain. Hardman Johnston Global Equity Strategy stated the following regarding Vertex Pharmaceuticals Incorporated (NASDAQ:VRTX) in its fourth quarter 2025 investor letter:

During the quarter we liquidated Corteva Inc., T-Mobile US, Inc. and Vertex Pharmaceuticals Incorporated (NASDAQ:VRTX). After meetings with FDA, Vertex Pharmaceuticals Inc. does not see a path forward for a broad neuropathic chronic pain label for Journavx. This lowered potential TAM of Journavx in chronic pain. VX-993 (next generation NaV 1.8) phase II data failed to show competitive/significant benefits so VRTX will not pursue this as a monotherapy. Journavx is launching well in acute pain but still early days so stock reacted negatively to chronic pain updates. Outside of pain, all pipeline updates were positive across kidney and diabetes however given the slower ramp of pain we thought there were better opportunities elsewhere in the portfolio and picked Elanco over Vertex.

10. Honeywell International Inc. (NASDAQ:HON)

Honeywell International Inc. (NASDAQ:HON) was among Jim Cramer’s recent stock calls on Mad Money. A club member mentioned that they plan to invest $50,000 in two to three long-term stocks to build funds for their 12-year-old child’s future. Cramer replied:

Okay, half of it immediately goes into index fund, $25,000, boom, index fund. Then we’re going to divide the other $25,000 into five buckets. We’re going to put four stocks, three have good yield, but you know, 2% yield, and then one is going… what I regard as being a great tech stock, and that means you’re going to put NVIDIA.

And then the fifth one is a very young stock. We heard about Bloom Energy early on. Maybe you do Bloom Energy after it comes down a little bit. The first three, we’re just looking for basic good stocks…. I’ve got 30 stocks that I think are terrific, and the ones I’m talking about are, I’m talking about stocks like Eaton, stocks like Honeywell. I think Honeywell’s very, very good. And yes, you can do another tech that’s in there. You can do, you know, why not do Alphabet? I think Alphabet’s terrific there. I just built your portfolio.

Honeywell International Inc. (NASDAQ:HON) develops and sells technologies and solutions across aerospace, industrial automation, building management, and energy and sustainability.

9. Dell Technologies Inc. (NYSE:DELL)

Dell Technologies Inc. (NYSE:DELL) was among Jim Cramer’s recent stock calls on Mad Money. When a club member mentioned that they took up Cramer’s suggestion of switching into DELL from SMCI, he commented:

That’s, you know, I really gotta tell you, this Super Micro always left me cold because they have an SEC investigation, and Michael Dell is probably about the best there is.

Dell Technologies Inc. (NYSE:DELL) provides storage systems, servers, networking gear, and consulting services, as well as laptops, desktops, workstations, and accessories. Cramer mentioned the company during the March 19 episode and said:

The key was to buy Dell small and then keep buying it as it got cheaper. That’s how you get a better cost basis. You buy what I call a pyramid style, cheaper and bigger. You had to ask yourself if anything was really wrong with that sickening decline down to $110. But if you did the homework, you would’ve known that everything was good. Frankly, if you just watched the show, you would’ve known.

If you waited to buy the stock until the coast was clear, well, the coast never goes clear. It’s not the way it works. You’ll miss the move. In retrospect, we marvel at how easy it must have been to buy Dell near its lows, dividend increase, giant buyback ton of orders. It seemed totally getable, but it was only getable to the people who believed that the stock was wrongly priced higher. Believe me, that was not the conventional wisdom at the time. Now, let me give you some caveats. Not every kind of stock can be bought steadily on the way down.

It doesn’t work… [for] companies that have no earnings, miserable balance sheet, magical investing, they may never bounce. But with a fine company like Dell, where the CEO has a terrific track record, you can get incredible bargains if you’re simply willing to buy the stock at moments where it’s wrongfully hated. We didn’t catch Dell for the Charitable Trust. I keep mentioning it on air, which locks us out of buying it for the investing club. That’s how we missed it. But you could have easily gotten this one yourself if you just watched the show. In the end, though, this method only works if you have conviction because it requires taking some pain, and that’s impossible to do if you don’t believe in the underlying business, and of course, the CEO.

8. General Motors Company (NYSE:GM)

General Motors Company (NYSE:GM) was among Jim Cramer’s recent stock calls on Mad Money. Mentioning that they wish to invest in the automotive sector, a club member inquired whether they should focus on electric-vehicle segments or traditional internal-combustion-engine markets. Cramer replied:

I’ll tell you something, you want to invest in, this is the way I look at the autos… but I want you to invest in Mary Barra. Mary Barra is amazing. She’s an incredible person who is a great CEO, the great CEO of General Motors. If she weren’t running GM, I don’t know if I would ever recommend it because I think she’s that sensational. You buy the stock of General Motors and don’t worry, she’ll take care of whether it should be electric or not. She’s amazing.

General Motors Company (NYSE:GM) manufactures vehicles and parts under brands such as Chevrolet, Cadillac, Buick, and GMC. During the January 27 episode, Cramer noted that the company was a “huge beneficiary of less stringent environmental regulations,” as he commented:

… In the last 24 hours, we’ve seen the president’s policies bolstering some domestic manufacturers. GM, it reported a huge profit boost today, sharply better than expected. Some of that’s because GM has a great car and truck lineup. They’ve had the highest full-year market share in a decade, but GM’s also been a huge beneficiary of less stringent environmental regulations, allowing the company to sell popular gas guzzlers, no fines, no purchases of EV credits. And while it wasn’t stressed, GM certainly benefits from tariffs on importing cars. GM CEO, Mary Barra, listen, time for you to take a victory lap. You’re offering the best cars and trucks at the best prices. You deserve a huge amount of credit. And I agree with Barra when she says 2026 will be even better. And we have to credit this business environment and the president’s support for some of that success. Shareholders did well. GM stock jumped almost $7 or 8.75%.

7. Bloom Energy Corporation (NYSE:BE)

Bloom Energy Corporation (NYSE:BE) was among Jim Cramer’s recent stock calls on Mad Money. Inquiring whether the company is the “real deal,” a club member mentioned that they bought BE shares at $12.64 about 18 months ago, have already recovered their initial investment by selling 10%, and asked whether they should trim more of their position or hold. Cramer replied:

BE is the real deal. I wouldn’t mind, here’s this, we have cross-disciplines here. You did the right thing; you took out your cost basis. That’s what I always advise you to do. However, now get this, this is really important, we have what I call a parabolic move. Almost no parabolic move survives the next three or four weeks. So you’re going to take out a little bit right here. Maybe you take out another 10% and then just forget about it. But I cannot let a parabolic move go by without urging someone to sell it. I always, if I can, I’m not frozen for the Charitable Trust, I sell some in a parabolic move.

Bloom Energy Corporation (NYSE:BE) develops and sells solid-oxide fuel cell systems that convert natural gas, biogas, or hydrogen into electricity without combustion. The company also provides electrolyzers for hydrogen production.

6. Coterra Energy Inc. (NYSE:CTRA)

Coterra Energy Inc. (NYSE:CTRA) was among Jim Cramer’s recent stock calls on Mad Money. A caller asked why the merger is a good deal for the company, and Cramer replied:

Okay, it’s a good deal… because we want nat-gas. We don’t want oil. Oil is very international, and price is set overseas. But why we want natural gas is, I think, one day one of these hyperscalers is going to go in, and they’re going to buy a company and just say, listen, we’re going to pump natural gas from our own company. And the one I think they’re going to buy is the one that you own, which is the one that is Devon-Coterra. That’s why I’d like you to own it.

Coterra Energy Inc. (NYSE:CTRA) explores, develops, and produces oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids. Moreover, the company operates gathering and disposal systems and sells its energy products to industrial, utility, and pipeline customers. During the March 20 episode, a caller asked whether they should ring the register or wait for the company’s merger, and Cramer responded:

I would sell half, because you’ve had just a monster move, and let the rest run. I would feel good if you did that because you know, I owned it. We ended up not doing anything with it. You caught it for the big one, but take half off because if we do get any sort of change, well, if anything goes well over there, that stock’s going to be right back under 30. And I don’t want you to turn a gain into a much smaller…
