NASDAQ:ARTL 23 May 2026

July 9, 2026, 7:17 PM EDT. CNBC's Jim Cramer told investors to stick with the largest tech names, even after a rough stretch. He pointed to a possible market rally coming when AI bets start to pay off. The so-called "Magnificent Seven" - Alphabet, Amazon, Apple, Meta, Microsoft, Nvidia and Tesla - have had a tougher year, though Cramer said their paths have started to diverge and they shouldn't be treated as a single trade. He called out Meta's plans for an in-house AI chip and noted Alphabet's business reach is about more than just AI headlines. Once one of these giants starts reporting meaningful AI-driven profits, Cramer said, it could set off a larger move and reward those who stayed with the group.
