10 Latest Jim Cramer Stock Picks on Twitter and Mad Money

Page 1 of 3

Markets are trembling amid the latest AI stock sell-off, which has sent shares of major AI players deep into the red. But CNBC’s Jim Cramer believes the downturn is not another dot-com crash.

Cramer warned that AI stocks could fall further, particularly semiconductor companies whose shares surged during the AI boom. However, he argued that unlike the speculative businesses that collapsed in 2000, many of today’s AI companies are highly profitable.

His biggest concern is smaller AI infrastructure companies such as CoreWeave, Iren and Nebius, which have borrowed heavily to finance data center projects that could face regulatory delays.

Before the election too, Cramer was more careful about tech. On Mad Money, he said the Nasdaq had just closed its worst month since March 2025 and that the week ahead “might be even worse.” He said he wanted to see a “crescendo” before putting more money into tech, which he described as stocks getting crushed in the morning and then rallying on big volume to finish higher. He also warned that anti-data center politicians could stop projects if Democrats took control, and data center stocks fell on Wednesday on fears of tighter AI regulation, Reuters reported.

We recently ranked 10 stocks Cramer sounded positive about, based on his posts on X and his comments on CNBC. Check the full list here. Cramer and billionaire Ken Fisher also like many of the same stocks, and we ranked the top 10. See the top 10 here.

#10 Ralph Lauren Corporation (NYSE:RL)

Number of Hedge Fund Holders: 60

Ralph Lauren is Cramer’s favorite stock in the apparel sector, he said in a recent program on CNBC. He has held that view for the past couple of years under CEO Patrice Louvet. Cramer said sales grew at a 13% compound annual rate over the past five full fiscal years, and adjusted earnings per share grew at a 57% rate. The shares are up 380% from their late 2022 low, compared with about 110% for the S&P 500. Cramer said the company cut wholesale channels that hurt the brand and focused on direct-to-consumer sales, which improved gross margins. The stock fell in late August and September when consumer names dropped on rising oil prices, and it has since recovered.

“You’re basically getting that last quarter, which is really so good for free,”

#9 Starbucks Corporation (NASDAQ:SBUX)

Number of Hedge Fund Holders: 64

Cramer likes Starbucks and has said he thinks the company is coming back under CEO Brian Niccol. Starbucks shares fell about 3% after the Financial Times reported on Oct. 8 that the company had explored a bid for Chipotle, Reuters reported. On Oct. 12, Cramer said on CNBC that he had worked with Niccol over the weekend and could confirm that Starbucks is not going to buy Chipotle.

Starbucks reported its fiscal fourth-quarter results on Oct. 29, and U.S. comparable sales rose 7.7%. Cramer named Starbucks among the stocks he favored the next day, CNBC reported. Starbucks ranks tenth on our list of the top 10 stocks Cramer and billionaire Ken Fisher like, and Fisher Asset Management added to its stake in the second quarter.

#8 Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:PLTR)

Number of Hedge Fund Holders: 86

Cramer defended Palantir Technologies, the data analytics software company, against talk that its business is slowing. In a recent post on X, he said people are claiming a slowdown in Palantir’s business, and he does not see how anyone can say that unless they want the stock lower. “I do not know how anyone can say that unless they want it lower,” he wrote. In another post on Nov. 3, he said the negativity toward Palantir, Apple and Marvell was heavy. Palantir Technologies is one of the stocks he is backing against the selling. It is also one of the 10 stocks Cramer sounded positive about in our latest list, which we ranked by hedge fund interest. Open the full list here.

Palantir Technologies is notoriously overvalued on conventional metrics, with a forward P/E of about 103. But bulls say the growth makes up for it. The company recently reported quarterly results, and in that quarter revenue grew 96% from the same quarter a year ago, with U.S. commercial revenue up 148%. Adjusted operating margin was 62% in the quarter, and adjusted operating income grew faster than sales. Analyst consensus has earnings per share growing 43% next year and 42% the year after. Bulls also expect analysts to raise their estimates after the report, which would lower the P/E without the stock moving. Palantir makes a lot of free cash flow, so they see room for buybacks. The risk is that growth slows. At this multiple, even a small slowdown in commercial sales could hurt the stock. That is what the price of Palantir Technologies assumes.
