‘It’s so horrible that I want to buy it’ — Jim Cramer likes these 2 crushed tech stocks that are still posting white-hot revenue growth
The market doesn’t seem able to find a bottom.
The S&P 500 has fallen about 20% year to date, while the tech-centric Nasdaq is down 30% over the same time frame.

In the most recent quarter, iPhone sales grew 5.5% year over year to $50.6 billion and accounted for 52% of Apple’s total sales.
Nvidia (NVDA)
As a leading manufacturer of graphics cards, Nvidia shares have had a solid bull run over the past decade. But that rally came to an abrupt end in November 2021. Since reaching a peak of $346 in late November, the stock has fallen about 55%.
