'Coming into the pandemic induced recession, you might've expected these 10 stocks … to be horrendous, but so far they've been some of the biggest winners,' the 'Mad Money' host said.
"Normally when we go into a recession, Polaris gets crushed because ATVs and snowmobiles are the ultimate in discretionary spending," Cramer said. "This time, though, Polaris delivered much better than expected numbers, and even Scott admitted to me that he hadn't seen it coming. Turns out that riding an ATV is the ultimate pandemic pastime.
"We had CEO Ynon Kreiz on [the show] last night and he talked about skyrocketing Barbie sales. Big, big numbers. But what I found most interesting," Cramer said, "is that Uno is now the No. 1, biggest board game in the country," even though it's actually a card game."Shares of the online furniture company are up 151% this year. The stock closed Tuesday at $227.
"I've had my doubts about this online furniture retailer for ages, and the company was on the ropes going into the pandemic, but it's now making a fortune," the host said. "People need to set up their home offices. Nobody wants to go to a furniture store when they can order off the web."Shares of the motorhomes and campers manufacturer are up 56% year to date, closing Tuesday at $115.90.
"There are so many rich people who want socially distanced vacations and that means buying or renting expensive RVs, which is why Thor's stock is flying," Cramer said."Traders thought it would blow up during a recession," he said. "Turns out, it did blow up, from $3 to $36, because people love camping in the age of Covid.""In a pandemic, gardening is like going to Disneyworld or even Paris.
"Gardening newbies don't want to come up with anemic zucchinis or tomato plants that taste worse than what you'd find at a convenience store," Carmer said. "So they pour on the Scott's Miracle-Gro when no one's looking for a can't miss garden.""Boating's a terrific time suck, and it has the added advantage of being a lot of fun," the host said.

Netflix Receives 10 Emmy Nominations For Season 4 Of ‘Wings’LOS ANGELES—In a sign of the growing influence of online streaming services in the television and broadcast industry, the fourth season of Wings, the popular Netflix Instant Watch series about a fictional family-run airport in Nantucket, MA, was nominated for 10 Primetime Emmy Awards on Thursday, sources confirmed. “We are absolutely thrilled that Wings has garnered not one but 10 nominations from the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences, including twin Outstanding Lead Actor nominations for Tim Daly and Steven Weber for their portrayal of the Hackett brothers,” Netflix CEO Reed Hastings said of today’s groundbreaking announcement, in which Wings also racked up nominations for Outstanding Writing for a Comedy Series and Best Director for Andy Ackerman for the Season 4 finale, “Date Package Number 7.” “Rebecca Schull as the sweetly manipulative Fay absolutely deserved her Emmy nom. And it will be interesting to see Thomas Haden Church go head-to-head with Emmy veterans like Modern Family’s Ed O’Neill and Jesse Tyler Ferguson for Supporting Actor in a Comedy. It just goes to show that good television is good television, no matter what network it’s on.” At press time, awards forecasters predicted that despite its impressive showing, the series would likely lose the Outstanding Comedy award to either Season 2 or Season 3 of Wings.
