Jim Cramer’s Latest Comments on NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA)

In this article, we’ll share Jim Cramer's latest comments about NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA). First, we will take a look Cramer's analysis of the market sentiment.

Friday Madness

In a recent episode of Mad Money, Jim Cramer described September 6, Friday, as a dismal trading day following a critical non-farm payrolls report. Bulls hoped for weaker-than-expected hiring and steady wages to prompt the Federal Reserve to consider cutting rates. They got what they wished for, but this led to a surprising turn of events: instead of rallying, the market saw a sharp decline, with the Dow falling 410 points, the S&P dropping 1.73%, and the NASDAQ plummeting 2.55%.

"What an ugly day. Just hideous. We came into today knowing we’d have a critical non-farm payrolls report. If you were a bull, you wanted to see weaker-than-expected hiring with wages pretty much in line, because that’s what the Fed needs to see before it can start cutting rates. Voila, we got exactly what we wished for. Maybe we should have been careful, though, because as soon as we got what we wanted, the bulls vanished and the sellers came out of the woodwork, crushing practically everything.

The Dow fell 410 points, the S&P plunged 1.73%, and the NASDAQ plummeted 2.55%. This market has a September problem. Come September, we’re always hit with a tremendous amount of profit-taking, which is why it’s the weakest month of the year. I know that’s somewhat circular reasoning—we sell because we’ve always sold—but it makes more sense than saying people sold tech because they fear a hard landing. Tech, especially big tech, is something you buy, not sell, into weakness if you're worried about a more severe slowdown."

Cramer noted that September often brings significant profit-taking, making it historically the weakest month for the market. While this might seem like circular reasoning, it's more plausible than suggesting that fear of a severe economic slowdown drives the sell-off. In fact, big tech companies, which are central to ongoing powerful trends like data centers and accelerated computing, should be seen as buying opportunities during market dips.

"This market has a September problem. Come September, we’re always hit with a tremendous amount of profit-taking, which is why it’s the weakest month of the year. I know that’s somewhat circular reasoning—we sell because we’ve always sold—but it makes more sense than saying people sold tech because they fear a hard landing. Tech, especially big tech, is something you buy, not sell, into weakness if you're worried about a more severe slowdown.

Why? Well, because big tech is all about powerful secular themes that can keep going even during a recession—and we're not getting one. I’m talking about the data center, accelerated computing—they're not going anywhere. Nevertheless, when anything jars the big tech themes of the moment, the market’s reaction is swift, harsh, and horrible."

Jim Cramer discussed the aftermath of NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA)'s recent report, noting that despite his belief that AI is not a bubble, the stocks related to AI have seen substantial gains, particularly in August. He pointed out that September often triggers increased selling, even when companies report results that meet expectations.

"Look at what happened after the company reported last night. I don’t believe AI is a bubble, but these stocks are still up a great deal, especially in August. And September tends to bring out sellers when you get just in-line numbers."

The Upcoming Debate Between Harris and Trump

Jim Cramer also commented on the upcoming debate between Vice President Harris and former President Trump, scheduled for Tuesday night. He questioned how much the economy will be a focus, speculating that Trump might try to link Harris to recent inflation trends, while Harris may present herself as a more moderate alternative to President Biden.

"Tuesday night’s the great debate between Vice President Harris and former President Trump. I don’t know how much of a role the economy will play in the debate. If Trump’s on his game, he’ll try to tie Harris to the inflation we’ve experienced since COVID. I suspect that Harris will try to portray herself as more moderate than President Biden. Either way, I doubt there’ll be anything specifically market-moving, even if the candidates say something newsworthy about their tax plans. Keep in mind that the winner in November likely won’t have the Senate votes to totally rework the tax code, whether we’re talking about Harris’s capital gains tax or Trump’s 19th-century-style tariffs."

Jim Cramer Urges Investors: "Please Do Not Give Up the Ship Here"

Then he discussed the upcoming release of the Consumer Price Index (CPI) on Wednesday, which will provide another update on inflation. He emphasized that if inflation remains steady or decreases, the Federal Reserve will have more flexibility to lower interest rates and potentially avoid a recession, addressing concerns from many sellers. Cramer urged investors to stay confident and not to abandon their positions based on these uncertainties.

"Wednesday, we get another read on inflation—this time from the Consumer Price Index. What can I say? As long as inflation stays the same or goes lower, the Fed has plenty of leeway to cut interest rates and prevent a recession—the thing so many sellers are worried about. That’s why I keep telling you, please do not give up the ship here."

Jim Cramer's Recent NVIDIA Corporation (NVDA) Comments:

A week ago on Friday Cramer urged his viewers not to dwell on the day-to-day movements of NVDA stock:

" When you look at NVIDIA on forward earnings or estimates, it always looks expensive, and then it so far trumps those estimates that when you look backward, it turns out the stock was selling at a remarkably low price. That's been the secret to NVIDIA literally since 2012—incredible! It just keeps doing that, right? Please don’t put too much significance on day-to-day gyrations in a stock's share price. You have to know when something is a signal and when it’s all just sound and noise, always signifying nothing."

Cramer shared a similar sentiment on Wednesday as well:

"What about tech weakness as a recession signal? I keep hearing Nvidia may have missed its quarter due to economic softness. Let’s put that rumor to bed. The issue wasn’t demand; it was Nvidia’s inability to produce enough of its high-end Blackwell chips due to supply constraints. This wasn’t a demand issue.

Now, let's address the overblown narrative surrounding Nvidia's stock drop, which wiped out $279 billion in market capitalization. In isolation, that sounds terrifying, but keep this in perspective: Nvidia started the year with a $1.22 trillion market cap and soared to $2.93 trillion by the end of August. Yesterday’s drop to $2.65 trillion? Sure, it’s a big number, but in the context of a stock that’s up over 100% this year, it’s not as catastrophic as it seems.

This wasn’t the first time Nvidia’s market cap has dropped over $200 billion in a day, and it likely won’t be the last. Yet, I know what you're thinking—Nvidia’s stock is on fragile ground. That’s fair. There are still far too many investors who don’t understand what Nvidia does or how it profits from the brainpower of CEO Jensen Huang and his team.

The stock can’t stabilize until these weak shareholders sell out. Meanwhile, we’re waiting to see how quickly Nvidia can get its Blackwell chip rolling and improve gross margins—the real reason for the stock's recent pummeling."

NVDA is ranked 6th on our list of the 31 Most Popular Stocks Among Hedge Funds. As per our database, 179 hedge fund portfolios held NVDA at the end of the second quarter which was 186 in the previous quarter. 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 doing so within a shorter timeframe. If you are looking for an AI stock that is as promising as NVDA but that trades at less than 5 times its earnings, check out our report about the cheapest AI stock.
