Jim's comments BEFORE the interview:      As part of "Wildcat Week" on Mad Money... on Tuesday, I recommended Rex Energy Corp. (REXX), at $27.05. It's been two trading days, and REXX is at $28.75, up 6.2%. I regard that as pretty much of a rounding error, in a group that trades this erratically... but it is why we love the wildcatters... the companies that search for new oil and natural gas... and that we think will be volatile, spiking and sinking...

But my advice to you, is that we buy the weakness... but do not pay up above where we recommend these stocks... REXX included.

Now, if you committed the unforgivable... the unpardonable insult... of not watching on Tuesday night, when we had our live audience, REXX is the two-headed play on the Illinois Basin, and Cramer-fave, Marcellus Shale.

In the Illinois Basin, they're using an unconventional process at REXX... it's called ASP flooding. It's designed, basically, to mop up the harder-to-reach oil that's located there... maybe as many as 84 million barrels... something that's worth $40 to the stock, if it pans out.

REXX is also growing its presence in the Marcellus Shale. They did a secondary - they issued more stock - to fund more land acquisitions. And, on their current acreage, they have roughly 72 million barrels of oil equivalence in reserves... all of it to be in natural gas.

The company is trying to increase their net acreage in Marcellus from around 48,000 acres, to somewhere between 60,000 and 80,000.
I've got some concerns...

I've got some concerns with all the wildcatters, because they're up from nothing, and have just moved up so much...

I always have to check my enthusiasm. I want to know if I'm too bullish. I want to know if this ASP technology really works. Is there really so much gas in the Marcellus Shale? Are we over-excited?...

Now, I like REXX's potential as a wildcatter... but, with the stock up so much, so fast, I've got to know more... You need to know more... We need to do more homework, besides just reading the documents, the news articles...

That's why we're bringing on REXX's president and CEO, Ben Hulbert... who I just have to say, Ben Hulbert was formerly a captain in the U.S. Army for four years, right before this gig... So, to fill us in about his company, and to put to rest for some of the naysayers, Mr. Hulbert, welcome to Mad Money...
