Full Company Name/Comments
(see comments above for each)

PWR

23.27

22.96

Quanta Services Inc. (PWR)

PWR -  I'm very familiar with it... I recommended this stock too high... I recommended this stock around $29, and I don't understand for the life of my why it's come down.  When I keep checking the fundies (i.e., fundamentals), the fundies seem real good to me.  I want to buy PWR.

SIGM

44.64

42.80

Sigma Designs Inc. (SIGM)

SIGM -  They're the winner in this Blu-Ray controversy... These guys are winning so many contract designs.  It is hated by the short sellers.  I am with the long buyers.  I think SIGM, on this pullback... All right, just to be candid, that was one of stocks I was going to do on my 'forgotten techs'...  Now I just feel like I should just mention it here... but SIGM was going to be one of my forgotten techs.  It should be bought right here.

 

LTR

49.01

48.50

Loews Corp. (LTR)

LTR -  I would (hold it and add to the position in LTR)... The Tisches are money.  They've got the Diamond Offshore (DO)... They've proven to me over and over again, great investors... That is a terrific situation, and I urge you to buy it right now.  By the way, Altria (MO*), which is going to be spinning off...  It was an excellent story today that I read about how much the SAB Brewing's going to be worth... we're not even using that in our numbers... maybe north of $11 billion.  So that's a two-fer.  The Lorrilard spinoff makes LTR good, and the Altria spinoff is a must buy...

MO*

78.69

78.37

Altria Group Inc. (MO*)

See LTR comments above for:
MO*

NYX*

84.96

83.62

NYSE Euronext, Inc. (NYX*)

NYX* -  You and I both know that NYX* is going higher.  It's going to be a monster quarter.  They made that great wombat acquistion.  I looked at the numbers for the last month.  They were fantastic for Europe.  I wish they would buy the AMEX.  And Duncan Neidermeyer, who is really a mover and shaker...  If he could buy the AMEX, they could close that building.  I think it's worth $250 million, because downtown real estate is hot... move everybody over to the vacant space at NYX*, and we'd be raising numbers!  NYX* is right here!

ZGEN

12.59

12.44

ZymoGenetics, Inc. (ZGEN)

ZGEN -  I have so many biotech stocks that are down on their luck.  I'm not going there.  I like the BioMarin (BMRN) right here.  That's been my biotech stock, and I am not backing away.  I think Celgene (CELG) can go to the $60s, and then (buzzer sounds)... and then, you know what?  We may have to leave CELG, and then focus just on BMRN.

CELG

53.98

54.18

Celgene Corporation (CELG)

See ZGEN comments above for:
CELG

Price target:  $60.00 plus

BMRN

38.91

38.42

BioMarin Pharmaceutical Inc. (BMRN)

See ZGEN comments above for:
BMRN

TESO

27.57

27.30

Tesco Corp. (TESO)

TESO -  You know we like oil and gas... we like drilling... but we have our friend, and our friend is Transocean (RIG*).  I think that's going back to $150.00.  I prefer that one over yours.

RIG*

141.75

139.72

Transocean Inc. (RIG*)

See TESO coments above for:
RIG*

Price target:  $150.00

ISCA

41.00

40.64

International Speedway Corp. (ISCA)

ISCA -  I'm not going there.  I think it's terrific.  I love Daytona.  I've been there myself, but the correlation is not going to help... That stock's a down stock.  I don't want anything to do... I mean, that's kind of a discretionary spending item.  No one's going to spend...  I love Nascar, but I cannot bless that stock.

A Charitable Trust stock. - An asterisk next to a stock symbol indicates that Jim mentioned it is a stock that he manages within
his charitable trust portfolio.  You can see the complete portfolio
of stocks here >>

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.
