These stocks all got lumped together because of their size, their gigantic market caps that dwarf the rest of the market, and then they lost their juice,” Cramer said. “It’s their scale, their smarts, their moats, their balance sheets, and their sensational products.”

Jim Cramer also talked about the latest data in company reports that shows the demand for data centers remains strong.
