On CNBC's “Mad Money Lightning Round,” Jim Cramer said Arista Networks, Inc. (NYSE:ANET) reported an “unbelievable” quarter, and the company's CEO Jayshree Ullal is doing a “terrific” job.

He added, “All of these stocks are a little volatile right now, but I think you want to own it and buy it into the volatility.”

On May 7, Arista Networks posted strong first-quarter earnings and issued upbeat guidance. The company’s board of directors authorized an additional $1.2 billion stock repurchase program.

Cramer said Trump Media & Technology Group Corp. (NASDAQ:DJT) is the most volatile stock he has ever come across. He added, “That is a wild one, I don't know. I mean, it depends on the trial, it depends on the money flows.”

On May 20, Trump Media and Technology Group reported a loss of over $300 million last quarter, marking its first earnings report as a publicly traded company.

When asked about Sony Group Corporation (NYSE:SONY), he said, “I just like the stock as is, and it's been weighed down by the takeover talk.”

On May 14, Sony reported better-than-expected fourth-quarter financial results. The company announced Hideaki Nishino and Hermen Hulst will succeed former PlayStation boss Jim Ryan as co-CEOs, effective June 1, 2024.

The “Mad Money” host said Sigma Lithium Corporation (NASDAQ:SGML) is “too dicey” for him.

On May 16, Sigma Lithium posted a first-quarter loss of 6 cents per share, versus a year-ago loss of 21 cents per share.

Cramer recommended Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE:LLY), adding, “And let's hope it comes in so we can buy more.”

On Tuesday, Eli Lilly announced that Chinese regulators have approved its diabetes drug tirzepatide.
