Jim's Comments BEFORE
the interview:
Chattem Inc. (CHTT)...
You know we've been a big
backer of this company,
ever since it was able to
pick up some assets on the
cheap from
Johnson & Johnson (JNJ).
We've backed it all the
way... Now, most
recently, we've had some
calls... We had the CEO on
on March 19th, after a
problem with their ICY-HOT
product, and he said for
us not to worry about it.
And the stock was at
$69... It's back to $69
but, in the interim, they
reported a great quarter.
Let's find out how it's
really going. On the
line now, is Zan Guerry.
He's chairman and CEO of
Chattem... Welcome back to
the show sir...
. . . .
.
Jim's Comments AFTER
the interview:
Listen... you're looking
for a company that does
well in a tougher time...
You know a lot of, like,
the Perrigo knock offs
have done well... This
isn't really a knock off.
It's proprietary, but
they've got great
brands... I think
that, with the negative
part of ICY-HOT behind
them, and the stock down
today, I say you
pull the trigger and buy some CHTT.

LXU |
14.83 |
na |
Mad Mail
LSB Industries Inc. (LXU)
Q:
You recommended
LXU as a spec
Friday play
several months
ago and recently
said you would
pull the trigger as it is
undervalued.
There has been
insider buying.
The recent
conference call
reported solid
growth.
Does the "Wells"
notice make this
a more dangerous
play or would
you still buy?
JJC:
I think this
thing just got
clocked because
of the
investigation...
Now, we know
that accounting
irregularities
equals sell.
The core
business was so
good here...
I am mixed on
this...
Yes, today it
was upgraded...
When I see a
"Wells" notice,
it trumps all of
my fundamentals
work, and I'd be
negligent if I
didn't include
it into my
thinking.
At $14, I think
it's included in
the stock.

CPL |

Mad Mail
CPFL Energia S.A. (CPL)
Q:
I am a 20-year
old female just
getting her feet
wet in the stock
market. I
want to get a
utility stock
for my
portfolio, but I
can't decide
whether to go
with
Consolidated Edison Inc.
(ED)
or
Public Service (PEG).
Which one do you
like better?
JJC:
I like ED,
because it has
the bigger
dividend...
Remember, I like
that CPL, that
Brazilian one...
You're 20 years
old... I think
you take a
longshot and go
with the
Brazilian one.
It's got a
better yield...
And, that way,
you've got your
whole life ahead
of you. I
mean, if you buy
a stock when
you're 50, and
it doesn't work,
it takes a lot
of effort to get
back that money.
You're in good
shape.

SRZ |
22.22 |
na |
Mad Mail
Sunrise
Senior Living
Inc. (SRZ)
Q:
With a
long-term trend
of baby boomers
retiring in the
future, why are
senior living
facility stocks
like SRZ trading
at such lows?
JJC:
That's because
of accounting
irregularities.
That company had
accounting
irregularities,
and no one
wanted to touch
it.
Remember,
accounting
irregularities
equals sell.
No matter what I
do, when I see
an accounting
problem, I pull
back and don't
recommend.
Now, SRZ has
apparently put
that past them,
but I think
there are still
people saying
it's just too
dangerous.
I am not with
them... I
kind of like it
now.

FSLR |
269.87 |
na |
Mad Mail
First Solar, Inc. (FSLR)
Q:
I have been
reading more
information
about the
current warming
cycle, and that
it is over and
cooling
temperatures may
expose global
warming as a
political ploy,
and not a real
phenomenon.
If this is true,
will this damage
stocks like
FSLR, or can
they stand on
their own?
JJC: One
of the things
that we love on
this show is
that we don't
have to say
whether the
politicians are
right, we just
have to game
what they're
going to do.
And the
politicians are
convinced that
solar energy is
the way to go.
FSLR is a - get
this - an actual
profitable
company...
It's a thin-film
solar play, and
I think FSLR is
the best in
show. It's
the only solar
stock that I'm
recommending.
I have an
Applied Materials (AMAT)
buy, which is a
combination of
being
semiconductor
equipment and
solar, for those
more
conservative.

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. |
