Jim Cramer posted on X on July 24, 2026, calling out to sellers of Intel (INTC) and AMD to "come back and knock these two down," a blunt signal that he sees current semiconductor valuations as too rich to commit fresh capital. Rather than chasing the stocks at their prevailing prices, Cramer is openly rooting for a pullback that would give buyers a more attractive entry point.
The post drew 193 likes, 99 replies, and 10 retweets, suggesting the sentiment resonated — and sparked debate — among retail and professional investors alike. Semiconductor stocks have been closely watched given their central role in AI infrastructure spending, making any commentary on their near-term direction a flashpoint for discussion.
