CNBC’s Jim Cramer<\/a> said next week could bring key answers for technology stocks after a blockbuster quarter<\/a> from Dell Technologies<\/a> added to the enthusiasm around the data center trade<\/a>.<\/p>\n “When we look back, I wonder if we’ll say this was that moment when Dell simply took over the computer space” the “Mad Money<\/a>” host said Friday, calling the company’s latest earnings one of the biggest “blowouts” he can recall.<\/p>\n Tech has dominated the market this year, particularly companies tied to artificial intelligence infrastructure. But he said that one notable laggard has emerged: Nvidia<\/a>. <\/p>\n That could begin to change next week when CEO Jensen Huang delivers a keynote at Computex in Taiwan. Cramer said the event has historically been a “stake in the ground moment” for Nvidia and could include new announcements, particularly about PCs. Executives from other key tech players such as Arm Holdings<\/a>, Marvell Technology<\/a>, Intel<\/a> and Qualcomm<\/a> will also be at Computex. <\/p>\n Cramer then turned to the week ahead. <\/p>\n Monday <\/p>\n Other than Huang’s presentation, Merck<\/a> is set to host a meeting reviewing its cancer portfolio following the annual ASCO conference, offering investors a closer look at the drugmaker’s pipeline. <\/p>\n Tuesday <\/p>\n Dollar General<\/a> reports after rival Dollar Tree<\/a> posted stronger-than-expected results<\/a> on Thursday. Cramer expects Dollar General shares could rebound. <\/p>\n After the bell, Palo Alto Networks<\/a>, which is a holding in Cramer’s Charitable Trust<\/a>, the portfolio run by the CNBC Investing Club, reports. While the stock often rallies into earnings before profit-taking sets in, Cramer said rising AI-driven cyber threats could support results. <\/p>\n Ulta<\/a> also reports after a difficult year, with shares down sharply since its last earnings report in March<\/a>. Deutsche Bank slashed its price target Friday ahead the results. “It was jarring,” Cramer warned. <\/p>\n Wednesday <\/p>\n Medical device maker Medtronic<\/a> reports after a rough stretch for the broader medtech group. Cramer said he is not yet ready to get aggressive on the stock until he sees the quarter. <\/p>\n After the close, two stocks in the Charitable Trust \u2014 Broadcom<\/a> and CrowdStrike<\/a> \u2014 report. Broadcom “could deliver a good” quarter Cramer said, though shares have lagged some AI chip peers this year. CrowdStrike, meanwhile, has gone “parabolic” and may face profit-taking even on strong results, according to Cramer. <\/p>\n Discount retailer Five Below<\/a> also reports. After pulling back sharply from its highs, Cramer said he likes the stock “very much here.” <\/p>\n Thursday <\/p>\n Networking company Ciena<\/a> reports after an enormous run this year, though Cramer said the company’s proprietary technology leaves room for further growth. <\/p>\n Meanwhile, Lululemon<\/a> faces what Cramer described as a potential “reset quarter” amid ongoing turmoil, cautioning investors against buying the stock ahead of earnings. <\/p>\n Friday <\/p>\n The Labor Department’s monthly jobs report closes out the week and could shape expectations for interest-rate cuts. <\/p>\n “It’s a very important number,” Cramer said, because it “needs to be weak enough to justify a rate cut” from the Federal Reserve under new Chair Kevin Warsh<\/a>. <\/p>\n
