He also recommends pharmaceutical companies Biogen and Eli Lilly, with the latter having an edge due to its popular weight loss and diabetes medicine, Mounjaro. Cramer advises investors to learn from the 2011 debt ceiling crisis and focus on winners that stayed winners through the worst of the debt ceiling talks.

Shares of ONEOK fell about 9% on Monday following concerns about potential synergies from its deal to acquire Magellan Midstream Partners for $18.8 billion in cash and stock.

The combined company will have 44% of its business in transporting natural gas liquids, 21% in refined products, 7% in crude products, 10% in gas pipelines and 18% in gathering and processing.
