JJC:   General comments about Jim's disgust regarding how long it is taking to approve the merger between Sirius Satellite Radio Inc. (SIRI) and XM Satellite Radio (XMSR)...

No specific stock picks.

.  .  .  .  .


The Bottom Line!:
     In a market where hardly any stocks are worth buying, I believe the radio companies are among the biggest sells of all...  And, even when things get better, I still wouldn't touch them with a 10-foot pole...   Their desperation in trying to block the Sirius (SIRI)
/XM (XMSR)... merger is just a sign of how bad things have gotten for them!   Terrestrial radio... I've got three words for you... Sell, sell, sell!

Jim's Comments BEFORE the interview:      We have been trying to get CEOs on the phone, who have delivered for us in a very difficult time.  We had that fellow from American Ecology (ECOL) last week...  he was terrific.   There's another stock that is right...   The reason why we do this is to try to figure out what is working, because we know this market is horrible, okay?...   We had a company called Stericycle (SRCL) on...   We first recommended it in the first few months of the show, at $29.  It's up 78% since then..

So, why?...

It's an economically-insensitive stock.  They treat medical waste.  That's a very specialized business.  It doesn't seem to matter whether the economy's strong or weak.  I want to know whether that, like ECOL, can continue...   The only way to drill down and figure that out, is to speak to the president and CEO...

.  .  .  .  .

Jim's Comments AFTER the interview:      My takeaway is that everything sounds A-Okay, from the time we first starting recommending you, to the last times...  Guys, Stericycle (SRCL)... American Ecology (ECOL)...   We're not going to stop looking for things that work... because, when you can make 78% in a rough market, we have to do that for you in Cramerica...

Thumbs up - indicates he would buy the stock or, at the very least, not sell the stock.  We do our best to interpret Jim's opinion on stocks, as we think it is indicated by his comments during the show.  Please read his comments to decide for yourself.

Thumbs down - indicates he has said not to buy or to sell the stock, based on his comments  We do our best to interpret Jim's opinion on stocks, as we think it is indicated by his comments during the show.  Please read his comments to decide for yourself.

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.
