Jim Cramer Calls Carrier Global Corporation's Full-Year Forecast "Justifiably a Little Cautious"

Carrier Global Corporation (NYSE:CARR) is one of the stocks on Jim Cramer’s radar. Cramer analyzed the company’s performance during the episode, as he said:

It’s been a good year for Carrier Global, the heating, ventilation, air conditioning company, with a stock that’s up 16% so far in 2026. When Carrier reported a month ago, their top and bottom line results came in a little weaker than expected. That’s thanks to weakness in North American residential construction, we all know about that.

And their full-year forecast, I think, was justifiably a little cautious. But inside that disappointment, Carrier’s increasingly a two-speed story. The residential business is highly cyclical, and it’s still in the bust phase of the boom and bust cycle. But their commercial HVAC and aftermarket business is doing extremely well, in part because it’s got some data center exposure. Doesn’t hurt that Carrier fits the HALO rubric, heavy assets, low obsolescence. You know, we like that during the show.
