Jim Cramer’s Opinion on 13 Stocks Like Eli Lilly and Boeing and Increased AI-Related Spending

9. The Boeing Company (NYSE:BA)

The Boeing Company (NYSE:BA) was among the stocks on which Jim Cramer gave his opinion, as he warned that increased AI-related spending might cause near-term headwind for stocks. A caller mentioned that they wish to pick up some shares but do not wish to violate their cost basis. Cramer replied:

I don’t want you to do it. I don’t want you to do it… Right now, Boeing trades with the war, okay? I mean, it shouldn’t, but it does because people feel that travel’s going to be hurt. You can’t touch it… I’m not going to let you buy it until it goes lower or the war ends, okay? It is just like so many other stocks that are stuck in purgatory because of the war.

The Boeing Company (NYSE:BA) designs and builds commercial aircraft, defense systems, satellites, and space technologies, and provides related support and service solutions. During the episode aired on April 1, a caller asked whether they should add more shares to their position in the stock, and Cramer responded:

Yes, I think Boeing is going to be… one of the big stocks of 2026. I think it can run. I was talking about it with Jeff Marks yesterday, of course, my colleague on the Charitable Trust, that we, I just felt when it was up six, I couldn’t pull the trigger. But this thing is going up much higher. It’s refreshed and ready.
