Symbotic Inc. (NASDAQ:SYM) is one of the Jim Cramer’s Hottest Robotics and Physical AI Stock Picks. Symbotic Inc. (NASDAQ:SYM) is a robotics firm primarily focused on meeting the needs of the warehousing industry. Its shares are up by 136% over the past year and are slightly down since Cramer discussed them in August on Mad Money. One major movement in Symbotic Inc. (NASDAQ:SYM)’s stock occurred in November when it closed 39% higher on the 25th. The jump came after the firm reported its fiscal fourth quarter and full-year 2025 earnings report. The results saw Symbotic Inc. (NASDAQ:SYM) post $618 million in revenue and $0.03 cents in loss per share to beat the Street revenue estimate and meet the loss per share estimate. Following the results, several analysts discussed Symbotic Inc. (NASDAQ:SYM) and increased the share price target. However, the stock closed a whopping 21% lower on December 2nd, on the day that investment bank Goldman Sachs downgraded the stock to Sell from Neutral and set a $47 share price target. Cramer was well aware of Symbotic Inc. (NASDAQ:SYM)’s speculative nature in August as he remarked: “If you’re thinking long term and if you fully understand the risks and try to understand that short position, the concentration with Walmart, you got my blessing to speculate on this one. Just keep in mind, you’re speculating. Here’s the bottom line: Symbotic’s a cool company, and if you’re comfortable speculating, then you can put a small position on here and potentially buy more on weakness. But overall, I think there are more straightforward ways to speculate this market, but it is cool, I’m not denying that.” While we acknowledge the potential of SYM as an investment, we believe certain AI stocks offer greater upside potential and carry less downside risk.
