As seen on the 24/7 Wall St. homepage on July 27, 2026.

Cramer points to deteriorating trading volume and debt fears as the real culprit behind the chipmaker's weakness, not fundamentals.

the volume in Nvidia supports the decline.. I would say if there were no financing involved Nvidia's stock would be soaring. All that matters to the market, though, is the financing and how Nvidia it will impact Nvidia negatively BECAUSE of memories of 2000

Jim Cramer argued on X that Nvidia's underlying business is not the problem — without the financing concerns hanging over the stock, he believes shares would be soaring. The trading volume accompanying the decline is what he points to as confirmation that something beyond ordinary selling pressure is at work.

The deeper worry Cramer identifies is how the market is interpreting that financing and its potential negative impact on Nvidia, filtered through memories of the year 2000. That comparison to the dot-com era suggests investors are treating the situation as a warning sign of excess rather than a temporary headwind.
