Booyah Breakdown: Tech Stocks

Historically, people have started investing in tech during the fall, but Cramer doesn't believe that people should wait. Therefore, Cramer has been offering his favorite tech stocks on his show, and named SanDisk as his tech winner.

But if you're going to follow skee-daddy's advice, you have to educate yourself in the space, because tech stocks are not one-size-fits-all.

So the Booyah Breakdown is going to help you, uh, break down, the sector.

Bootcut or Wide-Leg?

Analysts will divide the technology sector in many different ways, but however you chose to dissect it, you'll probably end up with similar categories. It's just like going to the Gap and deciding on the flare, skinny, straight, or classic cuts vs. walking into, say, a Guess? store where your choices are the Foxy, the Daredevil and the Starlet. It's the same cuts, just different -- albeit sexier, names.

So we're going to offer up some subsectors -- nine actually -- to help you get started. But you feel free to break the technology universe any way you want. Just be sure to break it down because all tech stocks are not the same.

"Just because the hands on a watch are moving in one direction doesn't mean the gears inside aren't moving all different ways," says Mowrey, who helped me splice the sector.
