AMD briefly hits $1 trillion valuation; CNBC's Cramer says rally has more room to run

Shares of AMD briefly pushed the chipmaker's market valuation above $1 trillion, and CNBC's Jim Cramer said the rally still has room to run.

Cramer, host of CNBC's "Mad Money," argued that growing demand for so-called agentic AI, AI systems capable of autonomously carrying out multistep tasks, will continue to drive significant demand for AMD's high-end central processing units, according to CNBC.

A milestone valuation

AMD's brief entry into the trillion-dollar club places it among a small group of technology companies that have reached that valuation threshold, reflecting investor enthusiasm around the company's positioning in the artificial intelligence hardware market.

Cramer's comments frame AMD's recent stock performance as part of a broader trend in which chipmakers supplying hardware for AI workloads have seen strong investor interest, as companies race to build out computing capacity for AI applications.

CNBC's report did not specify AMD's stock price at the moment it crossed the trillion-dollar threshold or how long the valuation held before pulling back.
