In this piece, we will look at the stocks that Jim Cramer discussed.
While the broader debate in the market continues to surround the cost of buying and owning chips and whether AI GPU giant NVIDIA’s products are too expensive, Jim Cramer continues to believe in the firm. The CNBC TV host has recently remarked that the total cost of ownership of NVIDIA’s chips is lower than that of smaller rival AMD. He also believes that Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg’s decision to spend heavily on AI infrastructure is the right call, even though markets have presented mixed reactions to the news. In a recent tweet, Cramer remarked:
“Let’s forget about”momentum” for a second and focus on what Jensen has taught us. You need as much compute as possible at the lowest total cost of ownership. That’s what Mark Zuckerberg knows. That’s what the traders seem to have NO knowledge of. It’s why you own Nvidia”
