Jim Cramer named Micron Technology ($MU), Applied Materials ($AMAT) and either Intel ($INTC) or Advanced Micro Devices ($AMD) as his preferred semiconductor picks after the recent AI-driven tech selloff. He said those are the names he likes best across that part of the semiconductor “food chain.” Cramer also pointed to Super Micro Computer ($SMCI) as worth watching because of its connection to Nvidia ($NVDA). He said Supermicro is “great for Nvidia” if investors are tracking companies tied to the AI infrastructure ecosystem. His comments came one day after he warned investors not to let their portfolios become too concentrated in technology. Cramer said the AI trade has become increasingly volatile, even though he remains bullish on long-term leaders like Nvidia and Intel. The recent tech pullback followed months of huge gains in AI and semiconductor stocks. Freedom Capital Markets strategist Jay Woods said the decline looked like a normal correction after prices moved too far ahead of their longer-term moving averages. Woods said investors had been warned to take profits because many stocks had become stretched. Using Micron as an example, he said stocks can either move sideways while averages catch up or fall back toward those levels. His view is that the selloff was sharp, but not necessarily a breakdown in the AI story. The fundamentals remain intact, but the market is forcing investors to be more selective after a powerful rally.
