Cramer Suggests Potential Trim for AI Data Center Stock

August 25, 2026Pablo Navarro1 мин

Jim Cramer, in his CNBC Investing Club's "Morning Meeting" livestream, noted a shift in the market, characterizing it as a "Coca-Cola, J&J market" where traditionally stable companies are favored over some of the hottest AI and tech stocks. This comes as the AI trade is experiencing difficulties, largely due to the politicization of data center expansion as an election issue.

As a result, the club has reduced its exposure to some AI stocks. They have significantly cut their position in Broadcom. Cramer indicated that GE Vernova, which manufactures natural gas turbines essential for powering data centers, might be the next stock to be trimmed. He explained that GE Vernova is at the core of these developments, making a case for reducing the investment.

Regarding other tech stocks, Cramer expressed optimism about CrowdStrike heading into its earnings report, despite the recent departure of its chief technology officer. He cited the increasing demand for cybersecurity, particularly in the AI era. Similarly, he feels positive about Salesforce, another enterprise software company facing quarterly results. Despite a challenging year marked by concerns over AI disruption, Salesforce has seen a substantial recovery of over 40% from its 52-week low in late June.

The livestream also briefly covered stocks like Jersey Mike's Subs, Cava, Brinker International, Dutch Bros, Chipotle, Domino's Pizza, and Starbucks during a rapid-fire segment.
