We recently published a list of Jim Cramer Talked About These 7 Stocks Recently. In this article, we are going to take a look at where Marvell Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ:MRVL) stands against other stocks that Jim Cramer discussed recently.
On Monday, Jim Cramer, host of Mad Money, shared valuable insights from his years of experience as an investor. He stressed the importance of saving consistently, regardless of any excuses. According to Cramer, starting early is ideal, but even if that is not possible, it is still essential to set aside money for the future.

He advised that even if someone cannot afford to build a large stock portfolio, it is still worthwhile to invest in as little as possible. One way to do this, he suggested, is by contributing to an index fund or a major mutual fund with whatever money is available.
“If you don’t have enough money or the time to own a stock portfolio, you can only own one or two stocks, send the money in, as little money as you can, to an index fund, to one of these big mutual funds.”
Cramer also noted that if one is planning to pick individual stocks and dealing with real money, they should open an actual investment account. He compared investing to swinging at a pitch; if you know what you’re doing, it can be profitable, but if you do not, the risks are much higher. He warned against treating investing like a gamble or chasing after excitement, as this can lead to poor decisions. Instead, he emphasized the importance of discipline in investing and urged investors not to let their losses accumulate over time.
“So here’s the bottom line: You want to get started, go small, invest what you know, research intensely, just research, research, research… It’s as simple as a keystroke and the information’s free, including up-to-the-minute financials, analyst presentations, brokerage research, and of course, the conference calls that I tell you are a must if you want to actually know what you’re doing. Simple? No. Lucrative? You bet it is.”

A caller asked what Cramer thinks of Marvell Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ:MRVL), and he said:
“It’s, you know, its stock is the same price as it was before it got into AI. This is ridiculous. It’s below right around where Matt Murphy, the CEO, bought stock back, bought it personally. I would buy the stock of Marvell, and I’d buy it on Monday.”
Marvell (NASDAQ:MRVL) is a semiconductor company that specializes in data infrastructure. The company’s chips are built to handle the needs of modern data centers. On April 11, commenting on the stock’s decline, Cramer said:
“It’s unbelievable. And Matt Murphy is so fabulous. He bought a lot of stock actually higher. They are doing everything right, but you know what? They are up against some very good competition, and people feel that there’s always going to be some Taiwanese company that’s going to come in… It is now getting no credit for anything it’s done in the data center. I think. Marvell Tech is a buy.”
Overall, MRVL ranks 2nd on our list of stocks that Jim Cramer discussed recently. While we acknowledge the potential of MRVL as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns, and doing so within a shorter time frame. There is an AI stock that went up since the beginning of 2025, while popular AI stocks lost around 25%.
