Jim's comments BEFORE
Interview:
On this show, we have my
Wall of Shame for the
absolute worst CEOs,
running companies that are
a total embarassment to
the capitalist system...
Sometimes though, I wish
we had a Mad Money hall of
fame... a place where we
could enshrine stocks that
have delivered time after
time after time for you,
and made you money hand
over fist. We never
will, because I'm too much
of a negative Nancy...
But, if we did, I've got a
candidate...
I would induct
XTO Energy (XTO*)
in a nanosecond.
XTO* is one of my absolute
favorite oil and gas
explorer and producers...
a company that's doing
what every good business
in the oil patch should be
doing... adding reserves
like crazy, and profiting
from them, and growing!...
I started recomending XTO*
on March 20th of last year,
when I named it one of my
four Texas stocks at our
college tour at the
University of Texas...
Back then, it was at
$41.60... I talked
about it again on June
7th, and brought on XTO*'s
great CEO, Bob Simpson,
back when it was at $47...
and I've talked about it
endlessly since then,
including telling everyone
to call their broker, and
buy on that fantastic
(secondary stock) offering
at $55, just a couple of
weeks ago. No
money's been made this
fast this year... as
buying on that.
And now, after announcing
a stellar fourth quarter,
XTO* beat by four cents...
How about this? 292%
reserve replacement... It
acquired a billion dollars
worth of producing assets
and land... not to mention
upping their 2008
production growth guidance
from 17% to 20%...
Did you ever hear of
Exxon Mobil (XOM)
doing that? No....
The stock's now at
$59.46... gains of
43% and 24%... An
analyst meeting coming up
on the 26th... A
proven winner, XTO*.
Well, you've got to bring
on the CEO... you've got
to find out how much
upside is left and,
luckily, we've got Bob
Simpson here today - one
of our heroes - who made
you so much money the last
time he came on the
show... Well, let's
just see him... Bob
Simpson...
. . . .

Jim's comments AFTER
Interview:
So, growing in America,
growing domestic...
You're not drilling with
Chavez over there in
Venezuela?... And
you don't want to get
confiscated?... Excellent,
well, thank you very much
for making everybody who
watches Mad Money some
money...

Jim's comments BEFORE
Interview:
I own a couple of stocks
we've mentioned tonight in
my charitable trust... money I pay
for charity, where you can
play along with me, and
watch my emails...
One of them I own was one
of the best stocks I've
ever owned, and was also
mentioned in
Stay Mad For Life,
my new book. It's
called
Inverness Medical (IMA*),
and it had just been one
of the most amazing stocks
I'd ever seen...
And it ran into a brick
wall recently with an
acquisition of a company
called Matria... and I've
got to find out what's
going on, because this
stock has been literally
cut in half... and it
bothers me, because I
think it's a great
company...
So, on the line right now
is Ron Zwanziger.
He's chairman, president
and CEO of IMA*... Welcome
to Mad Money sir...
. . . .
.
Jim's comments AFTER
Interview:
All right... Sorry to be
so tough on you, but
you're costing everybody a
fortune, and I hate doing
that, alright.
Thanks for coming on the
show Mr. Zwanziger...
yeah... terrific...

Back up the truck -
indicated by Jim, when he
says the stock is so good,
that he would do a
'mon-back' on the stock...
In other words, this is the
sound someone would say to a
truck driver, "Come on
back... " as he is "backing
up the truck" to load up on
his cargo. Translation
for buying stocks:
This recommendation by Jim
indicates that, after you do
your own
homework on the stock,
you should feel comfortable
loading up on it, as it is
in a good position to be
bought at this point. |
|
 |
Stumped. - Of the
2,000+ stocks that Jim
Cramer has in his head, for
which he has an informed
opinion, he sometimes comes
across a caller with a stock
he does not know well enough
to opine on... He then
indicates he is stumped and
will have to come back to
it, after he does some
homework of his own on
the stock. This
usually occurs during the
Lightning Round, when Jim
does not know in advance who
is calling, or what their
stock question is about. |
|
|
|
|
|
Definitions of key phrases
used by Jim, known as
"Cramerisms": |
|
 |
Definition: 'Pull the
trigger' is Jim's phrase for making
the decision at that point to trade -
either to 'buy' or
to 'sell' (although he
usually uses the phrase for
buying), as if to say you
should feel comfortable
enough to make the final
decision without looking
back... |
|
|
Definition: 'Ring
the Register' is Jim's phrase for
selling a stock, and making
it a final sale, that you
should not look back on.
Put it behind you. |
|
|
Definition: 'Let It Come In' indicates how you
may wait for it to pull back, or have the
stock price come down briefly, as your
chance (after letting it come in) to buy
the rest of your position (i.e., total
number of shares you own in that stock). |
|
|
Definition: 'backing it up'
or 'doing a 'mon-back' is Jim's
phrase for the metaphor of backing up a
truck to load up on a stock by buying
it. 'Mon-back is short for the
imaginary worker saying, 'Come on
back...' as the truck is backing up to
receive its load... Notice that we use
the little truck icon to indicate where
Jim has mentioned this.
Translation for buying
stocks: This
recommendation by Jim
indicates that, after you do
your own
homework on the stock,
you should feel comfortable
loading up on it, as it is
in a good position to be
bought at this point. |
