Jim Cramer Says "We're Going to Pull the Trigger on Home Generators, Generac's Bread and Butter"

Generac Holdings Inc. (NYSE:GNRC) is one of the S&P 500 stocks that Jim Cramer shared his take on. Cramer commented on the company’s latest earnings and forecast, as he commented:

In sixth place was one we talk about a lot. It’s Generac, up 34% in February. This maker of backup generators and other energy equipment like home solar and battery storage solutions actually turned in a weak fourth quarter early last month, courtesy of a light hurricane season in the fall. But it also offered a strong outlook for 2026, in part, that’s because Generac’s got a fast-growing business selling, yep, industrial-scale generators as backup power for the data centers.

But the stock’s also been helped by the severe winter weather we had throughout, we had much through the country, it was pretty much everywhere. Many areas have more ice and snow… and saw prolonged power outages, likely motivating a lot of people… to say, listen, you know what, we’re going to pull the trigger on home generators, Generac’s bread and butter.
