9. Alcoa Corporation (NYSE:AA)

Number of Hedge Fund Holders: 47

Asking about Alcoa Corporation (NYSE:AA), a caller noted that with the ongoing conversation about tariffs on steel and aluminum, steel seems to be getting more love than aluminum. Cramer commented:

“I’m worried about aluminum. Aluminum’s been down for three straight, aluminum’s been down for three straight weeks. That does, that does not bode well for Alcoa. I want to stay away.”

Alcoa (NYSE:AA) manufactures and sells bauxite, alumina, and aluminum products, and also runs hydropower plants that produce and supply electricity to industrial and wholesale markets. In December 2024, Cramer expressed a similarly bearish sentiment about the company as he stated:

“Now here’s the problem with Alcoa, in the end, it’s a material stock. The material stocks are linked with China and therefore nobody wants them, even though Alcoa had a great quarter. So I have to go with the crowd and say, not now.”
