Jim Cramer: Oracle Is the King of Data Centers and Fastest Growing
"Our Multicloud database business is our fastest growing business - up 817% in Q2. Oracle is building 72 multicloud datacenters embedded within Amazon, Google, and Microsoft clouds, and has over 211 live and planned cloud regions worldwide, more than any competitor. That's the "chip neutrality" strategy in action: Oracle runs wherever the customer wants to run, which is why hyperscalers are signing contracts, not competing with them."
"Remaining Performance Obligations surged 438% year-over-year to $523 billion in Q2 FY2026. That's not a growth rate. That's a statement of intent. The stock hasn't reflected this yet. ORCL is down about 22% year-to-date, sitting at $151.56, well below the analyst consensus target of $253.08 and the 52-week high of $344.21. The post-earnings slide came after Q2 revenue of $16.06 billion missed estimates by roughly 5%, even as EPS of $2.26 beat by over 32%."
"Oracle has quietly transformed from a legacy database company into one of the most aggressive cloud infrastructure builders on the planet. The proof is in the pipeline: Remaining Performance Obligations surged 438% year-over-year to $523 billion in Q2 FY2026. Cramer's broader data center thesis extends to the picks-and-shovels layer. He flagged Broadcom, Micron, and Nvidia as direct beneficiaries of renewed data center enthusiasm."
Oracle has evolved from a legacy database company into an aggressive cloud infrastructure builder. The company's Remaining Performance Obligations surged 438% year-over-year to $523 billion in Q2 FY2026, with multicloud database business growing 817%. Oracle operates 72 multicloud datacenters embedded within Amazon, Google, and Microsoft clouds, with over 211 live and planned cloud regions worldwide—more than any competitor. This "chip neutrality" strategy allows Oracle to run wherever customers prefer, attracting hyperscaler contracts. Despite strong fundamentals, ORCL stock is down 22% year-to-date at $151.56, below analyst consensus of $253.08, following a revenue miss offset by significant EPS beat. Heavy capex investments are building competitive moats. Supporting beneficiaries include Nvidia with $62.31 billion data center revenue and Broadcom with $8.40 billion AI chip revenue.
