Cramer discussed Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN)’s shares in the context of a recent Morgan Stanley note where analyst Mike Wilson suggested that the recent weakness in semiconductor stocks was due to investor preference for hyperscalers:

“Michael Wilson this morning says you should go back into the hyperscalers, which have not done that well. That’s moved Amazon.

“I think that Mike Wilson, has a really cogent piece today. He’s talking about the gains broadening out, talking about the semis losing momentum. Now the takeaway people are using, is that he’s saying buy the hyperscalers. That was one of the reasons why Amazon was up, really they want to buy Alphabet. I looked at what he said about biotech should also benefit from broader leadership. There is a move in biotech that we have not talked about at all that is really extraordinary particularly since the change in FDA.”
