NVIDIA Corporation (NVDA)'s CEO Knows 'What's Coming' Is Smart, Says Jim Cramer

We recently published . NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA) is one of the stocks Jim Cramer recently discussed. NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA)'s shares are off to a great start in the year's second half. They are up by 14.9% year-to-date and have recovered all losses since January's DeepSeek selloff. Unsurprisingly, AI is at the heart of NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA)'s newfound bullishness. Investors have rewarded the firm after several analysts speculate that GPUs will continue to grow their enterprise computing market share over the coming years and the AI market will expand. NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA) has also benefited from its competitiveness as its GPUs continue to be the highest-performing and most widely sought AI hardware in the world. In this appearance, Cramer commented on NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA)'s CEO and his thoughts about the future: '[On research reports showing limitations with the reasoning ability of generative AI] Why is NVIDIA bothering to put out new iterations? Well because each one is better and Jensen is about, he will tell you, the one he's thinking about a few years from now, will be, he would say smarter than you. It'd be smarter than you. And you know that will be intimidating. You will say, like you heard Jassy talk about, he went back and forth about the Kentucky Derby winner, well it's entirely possible that this next one will be able to say, well listen, right now if you send that to an upper left corner pitch, Bryce Harper's going to strike out with that. It's going to know these things. A close-up of a colorful high-end graphics card being plugged in to a gaming computer. Later in the day, on Mad Money, Cramer shared some reasons behind NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA)'s share price movement: 'But then at the beginning of April, the stock collapsed on word that the president didn't want NVIDIA to sell any of its AI chips to the Chinese… That eventually caused NVIDIA to take a $4.5 billion write-off as they lost access to a market Jensen said could be worth as much as $50 billion. When that happened, the memesters left the building. Stock bottomed at 86 bucks and change in April. Can you believe it? And that was the time to buy as NVIDIA began its unheralded run all the way to $158, where it closed last night. The amazing thing, this rally was based on nothing more than semiconductor superiority and persistent demand from the hyperscalers, the same things that had the stock roaring all last year. I guess you could say that there was nothing wrong with NVIDIA the whole time… So, what did we discover?… NVIDIA's artificial intelligence chips remain unrivaled…' While we acknowledge the potential of NVDA as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and have limited downside risk.

Palantir Technologies Inc. (PLTR) Could Go Up In H2 2025, Says Jim Cramer

We recently published . Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:PLTR) is one of the stocks Jim Cramer recently discussed. Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:PLTR) is another frequently discussed stock on Jim Cramer's morning show. Throughout the year, he has mostly remained optimistic about the company. As the year started, Cramer adamantly held the opinion that Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:PLTR) could play a key role in the Trump administration's bid to cut government spending. However, as time passed, Cramer wondered whether the firm could itself become a victim of cost-cutting. Cramer's recent remarks about Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:PLTR) pointed to its high Rule of 40 scores, which, as he has noted, is a rule of 80 instead. He has also wondered whether the shares can touch $200. This time around, Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:PLTR) was at the center of Cramer's trading strategy for 2025's second half: 'Well I think a lot of things are going to be like the beginning. First half we had Palantir, I think's gonna be up' A software engineer intently typing code into a laptop with multiple screens in an office. Earlier, Cramer discussed his thoughts about Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:PLTR)'s future share price movement: 'We see Palantir, of course, the software company that brings costs down the moment you speak to them, is back on a roll after Friday's rare decline, levitating 4%. When Palantir was at $50, I said it was going to a $100. When it hit $100, I said it's going to $200. I'm sticking by my prediction… Unlike most of the people around here, the older people I talk to, I pass no judgment about these people. You know why? Because they are buying very good companies… These are top-notch businesses that might have gigantic earnings power someday.' While we acknowledge the potential of PLTR as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and have limited downside risk.

Last-Chance July 4th Apple Deals: Best Discounts You Can Still Grab on iPads, AirPods and MacBooks

If you were busy grilling goodies and enjoying the fireworks yesterday, you may've overlooked all the great Fourth of July sales that were happening. But don't worry, there's still time to grab lingering Independence Day deals from Amazon, Best Buy and others. Some of our favorite deals going on now are on Apple products, so if you've been waiting to upgrade your iPhone or MacBook, now's the time. CNET's shopping experts have found the best Apple deals that are still available to shop this weekend, across all the major retailers. Below are our top picks for the best bargains on Apple laptops, smartwatches, tablets and earbuds. Apple products tend to sell out quickly while on sale, so if you see a deal you like, grab it before it's too late. Best July 4th Apple deals Apple MacBook Air M4 (13-inch): $849 The M4 MacBook Air is the latest model in Apple's lightweight lineup and it's our overall favorite laptop on the market right now. The basic model comes with 16GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, with plenty of more advanced configurations also on sale. Details Save $150 $849 at Amazon Close Apple AirPods 4: $149 The latest AirPods with active noise cancellation are dust-, sweat- and water-resistant, perfect for all your summer adventures.

Details Save $30 $99 at Amazon $99 at Walmart Close More Apple July 4th sales and deals Does Apple offer July 4th sales? It's important to note that, while the Apple Store doesn't run sales for the Fourth of July (and rarely offers discounts outside of educational promos), deals on Apple devices and accessories can be found from authorized retailers, including Amazon. The best deals typically accompany major events, such as Amazon Prime Day which is approaching. There are plenty of sales where you can find discounted Apple products, including Best Buy and Walmart, making it an excellent time to shop for Apple sales on several devices. If you're looking to spend less, try forgoing the latest releases. You'll find bigger discounts on previous-generation models or refurbished devices. Should I wait until Prime Day for deals on Apple products? There's no definitive way to say whether Fourth of July sales or Prime Day deals are best. Both sales offer plenty of deals, including some of the best prices we'll see all year. Additionally, the two sales are basically merging into one big discount extravaganza given their proximity on the calendar this year. Fourth of July sales offered more variety in retailers, although much of your shopping may take place on Amazon anyway. There are also plenty of non-Amazon retailers that will keep their sales rolling through mid-July, often directly competing with Amazon Prime prices. How does CNET select the best July 4th deals? Our team of expert shoppers and deal hunters has spent years helping buyers understand which major sales and deals are legitimately good and which are more routine. That includes Black Friday, Prime Day, Memorial Day and countless other shopping events. We've gotten good at weeding out scams and superficial deals on tech of every kind, so you see only the best offers, including Apple deals. At CNET, we look for real discounts, quality reviews and remaining sale time when choosing a deal to show you.
