Why Jim Cramer Isn’t Selling Amazon, Microsoft, and Nvidia Stocks Now

TLDR

  • Jim Cramer says he’s not giving up on Magnificent Seven tech stocks despite their slow start in 2026
  • Storage and semiconductor equipment stocks are pulling money away from Mag 7 companies like Amazon, Microsoft, and Nvidia
  • Only Amazon and Alphabet are showing gains year to date among the eight major tech stocks
  • Micron stock jumped 39% this year due to memory chip shortages driving up prices
  • Cramer believes storage stock prices can’t stay high forever and investors will return to Mag 7 stocks

Jim Cramer told investors Thursday he’s keeping his faith in the Magnificent Seven tech stocks. The “Mad Money” host made his case even as most of these companies struggle in early 2026.

The Mag 7 group includes Amazon, Alphabet, Apple, Microsoft, Meta Platforms, Nvidia, and Tesla. Broadcom sometimes gets added to this list too. Right now, only Amazon and Alphabet show positive returns for the year.

Cramer pointed to a specific reason for the tech giants’ recent weakness. Storage and semiconductor equipment stocks have seen massive rallies. This surge is pulling investor money away from the Mag 7 companies.

Memory Chip Shortage Drives Storage Stock Rally

The storage sector boom stems from a shortage of memory chips needed for AI computing. Micron leads this rally with a 39% gain year to date. The company’s stock has doubled in just three months.

Seagate, Sandisk, and Western Digital also posted strong gains. These companies now have significant pricing power over their customers. The shortage means buyers have few alternatives.

Why Cramer Remains Bullish on Mag 7

The CNBC host believes the storage rally won’t last forever. High prices eventually create their own problems. When storage stocks peak, money should flow back to tech giants.

Cramer sees the current moment as temporary. The Mag 7 stocks built their positions as leaders during the AI-fueled bull market. That fundamental strength hasn’t changed.

Market rotation between sectors happens regularly in bull markets. Storage stocks attract attention now because of supply constraints. The Mag 7 companies remain well-positioned for long-term growth despite near-term pressure from sector rotation.

Vitalik Buterin lays out new Ethereum roadmap at EDCON

Vitalik Buterin lays out new Ethereum roadmap at EDCON

The post Vitalik Buterin lays out new Ethereum roadmap at EDCON appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. At EDCON 2025 in Osaka, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin delivered fresh details of Ethereum’s technical roadmap, delineating both short-term scaling goals and longer-term protocol transformations. The immediate priority, according to slides from the presentation, is scaling at the L1 level by raising the gas limit while maintaining decentralization. Tools such as block-level access lists, ZK-EVMs, gas repricing, and slot optimization were highlighted as means to improve throughput and efficiency. A central theme of the presentation was privacy, divided into protections for on-chain “writes” (transactions, voting, DeFi operations) and “reads” (retrieving blockchain state). Write privacy could be achieved through client-side zero-knowledge proofs, encrypted voting, and mixnet-based transaction relays. Read privacy efforts include trusted execution environments, private information retrieval techniques, dummy queries to obscure access patterns, and partial state nodes that reveal only necessary data. These measures aim to reduce information leakage across both ends of user interaction. In the medium term, Ethereum’s focus shifts to cross-Layer-2 interoperability. Vitalik described trustless L2 asset transfers, proof aggregation, and faster settlement mechanisms as key milestones toward a seamless rollup ecosystem. Faster slots and stronger finality, supported by techniques like erasure coding and three-stage finalization (3SF), are also in scope to enhance responsiveness and security. The roadmap also includes Stage 2 rollup advancements to strengthen verification efficiency, alongside a call for broader community participation to help build and maintain these improvements. The long-term “Lean Ethereum” blueprint emphasizes security, simplicity and optimization, with ambitions for quantum-resistant cryptography, formal verification of the protocol, and adoption of ideal primitives for hashing, signatures, and zero-knowledge proofs. Buterin stressed that these improvements are not just for scalability but to make Ethereum a stable, trustworthy foundation for the broader decentralized ecosystem. This is a developing story.
