"It’s NVIDIA (NVDA) That You Should Be Buying," Says Jim Cramer

“Do the traders who’ve left NVIDIA behind see everything? Were they at the David Ricks fireside chat where they talked, where Jensen talked about living forever? I mean, that was a new one. I’m raising numbers on that one partner, living forever.

“. . .it’s NVIDIA that you should be buying, but, Carl, the skepticism for NVIDIA remains and I don’t think it’s going to change.”

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.
