We recently published a list of Jim Cramer Recently Put These 10 Stocks Under Spotlight. In this article, we are going to take a look at where Nebius Group N.V. (NASDAQ:NBIS) stands against other stocks that Jim Cramer discussed recently.
On Monday, Jim Cramer, host of Mad Money, shared his thoughts on how the government’s approach to tariffs could play a crucial role in sustaining the stock market rally. Cramer expressed satisfaction with the current direction of policy.
“There’s what happened two weeks ago, two Thursdays ago, more accurately when the stock market official went into correction mode. Until the market broke down like that, I think the president was perfectly willing to hammer anybody just to get his way.”

“I don’t think he (President Donald Trump) wants to punish good American companies that make things here.”
Cramer explained that he no longer thinks the president wants to harm American companies that manufacture goods domestically. He suggested that the shift in attitude is a relatively new development, and it may signal a more nuanced approach going forward. He noted that with the market’s recovery, it is possible that the conversation around protectionist tariffs will surface once again, but the context might have changed.
Cramer speculated that when the market entered correction mode, President Trump may have been influenced by the pleas from various observers about the damaging effects on stocks of good American companies.
“Here’s the bottom line: At the end of the day, America’s the only country on earth that’s played fair on trade. Everybody else breaks the rules to protect their domestic businesses. That’s hollowed out our industrial heartland. And that dynamic can only change if our government takes a more carrot-and-stick approach. Assuming Trump doesn’t go overboard, that might just be what we’ve got and it means stocks can finally stage a real rally again.”

Cramer commented on Nebius Group N.V. (NASDAQ:NBIS) during the episode and said:
“I saw the Nebius booth. I was at the Nebius booth at the GTC festival. But I have to tell you, I’m not recommending stocks that are losing fortunes and Nebius is losing fortunes.”
Nebius (NASDAQ:NBIS) is a technology company that builds infrastructure for the global AI industry, offering services like AI cloud platforms, GPU clusters, and developer tools, and investing in AI data services, tech education, and autonomous driving. Cramer was similarly bearish on the stock in February as he remarked:
“Yeah, we did a little takeout on Nebius… and we felt like it’s kind of a, look, it’s a big money loser that people are buying because it’s part of all, of everything that’s going on right now in the cloud. I don’t want to be a part of it. Period. End of story.”
Overall, NBIS ranks 7th on our list of stocks that Jim Cramer discussed recently. While we acknowledge the potential of NBIS as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and doing so within a shorter time frame.
