Cramer highlighted J.B. Hunt Transport Services, Inc. (NASDAQ:JBHT) when discussing the tariffs on Mexico.

“Plus, talk about being in the crosshairs of the tariffs. Do we wanna own a rail that runs from Mexico to here or a trucking company like J.B. Hunt, if we’re getting into a tariff war in Mexico? To me, this group feels like it’s practically in a recession cycle today.”

J.B. Hunt (NASDAQ:JBHT) provides a wide range of transportation, delivery, and logistics services, using a fleet of company-owned equipment and resources. Before the company reported earnings in January, Cramer said:

“After the close, we get results from one of my favorite companies, J.B. Hunt, it’s the giant trucker. I see this company as more of a barometer of business because it does such a tremendous job of breaking down the strong and weak parts of the economy line by line by line.

These days the transports everyone wants though are the airlines. Just look at the positive reaction to Delta’s numbers this morning. I think we need to keep in mind that when you get really strong earnings like the ones from Delta, they can indeed transcend the market’s negative gravitational pull.”
