1. Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:MSFT)

Number of Hedge Fund Holders In Q3 2024: 279

Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:MSFT) is a global technology giant with a dominant position in the personal computing software and cloud computing industries. Its stock has lost steam recently as investors wait to see how its billions of dollars in AI investments will translate into a profit. More recently, Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:MSFT)’s President and Chief Operating Officer of Strategic Missions and Technologies, Mitra Azizirad, penned a blog post that urged businesses to be quantum-ready. The blog post stressed the need to prepare for quantum computing in 2025. Cramer, however, disagrees:

“I love the people at Microsoft. But the idea that this is quantum’s hour, they’re the only, well it’s easy to say it [inaudible], the problem is, is it commercial? And there isn’t anyone who thinks that the companies that are currently trading are commercial companies.”

MSFT is a stock Jim Cramer recently talked about.
