VDSI |
19.47 |
na |
VASCO Data Security (VDSI)
VDSI - The quarter was
bad... the October quarter was
bad... It got absolutely
hammered. It was just
awful. The stock's too low
to sell, even after the run
today. Let's hold onto it
until the mid-$20s, and then we
can get rid of it, but we do
have to get rid of it...
Price target: Sell in the
mid-$20s

MPEL |
10.27 |
na |
Melco PBL Entertainment (MPEL)
MPEL - No, I've been
saying that's bearish... Sell,
sell, sell!... plus I also said
that there's no way... I
don't like
Wynn (WYNN)...
I don't even like Las Vegas
Sands (LVS),
which we caught a double in over
a two-week period... I am
through with those stocks...
those are the Macau gaming
stocks, which everybody knows...

AMRI |
13.21 |
na |
Albany Molecular Research
Inc. (AMRI)
AMRI - It's too
dangerous... It's too... let's
just say it's a speculative play
in a market where I like
Covance (CVD),
and I like Parexel (PRXL)...
We
recommended that stock.
It was up $7 today... You go
with my conservative plays...
CVD and PRXL on a pullback...
Those are drug companies...
companies that test drugs...

STT |
81.64 |
na |
State Street Corp. (STT)
STT - Much pilloried
in the low $70s and the high
$60s, where the shorts were
jumping all over it, telling you
it's no good... I suggest
that anyone who doesn't
understand that company go to
their website, and look at that
conference call, which explained
everything they did, and why
they didn't make any mistakes,
and why they deserve to sell at
a premium multiple. $84
goes to $90. STT and
Bank of New York (BK)...
Two that did not screw up, that
deserve to be rewarded with
higher prices.
Price target for STT:
$90.00
|
|

BK |
45.59 |
na |
Bank of New York Mellon
Corporation (BK)

 |
SE |
22.51 |
na |
Spectra Energy Corp. (SE)
SE - I would use that
pullback... I remember when SE
went public... It seems
like a great story... natural
gas gathering... I don't know
why it's down so much... I
would buy it, and I would buy it
hand over fist... I like
natural gas here. People
gave up on energy. Why?
I don't know... You can't have
both energy and banks go up at
the same time? In a bull
market you can. Remember,
we're at the tail end of a bear
market... a lot of things
working... I like your stock.
|
|
 |
ZINC |
11.68 |
na |
Horsehead Holding Corp. (ZINC)
ZINC - Oh, it's a zinc
play. I got it wrong.
I was recommending a lot of
metals plays. I
recommended... We were making a
lot of good money in the zinc
play... a lot of good money in
lead... We were making money in
Lundin Mining (LMC),
and then the worldwide recession
fears came, and the only one of
our metals stocks that was
continuing to work was
Yamana
(AUY).
What do we do with ZINC? I
would not sell it down here...
It's got a big zinc mine...
Molybdenum is coming back
too... I don't want to
give up on ZINC.
|
|
 |
IGT* |
41.26 |
na |
International Game Technology
(IGT*)
IGT* - I sold IGT*
(but not all of it)... I
had a nice little gain from it
for
my charitable trust... I know the
quarter was good... but, at
certain points, you have to just
say, listen, the wind is out of
the sails on this gaming
business... There are too many
casinos. Macau's trading
down... I think we have reached
the outer limits of the gaming
business, and I am not going to
endorse anything in that group
anymore... no I am not!
|
|
 |
LUV |
11.95 |
na |
Southwest Airlines Co. (LUV)
LUV - I have only
momentarily recommended
Continental Air (CAL)
on the air... I do not
want to own an airline stock.
I am certainly not going to
start embracing them now.
(buzzer sounds)...

CAL |
25.46 |
na |
Continental Airlines, Inc.
(CAL)
See LUV comments above for:
CAL

 |
BRCD |
6.52 |
na |
Brocade Communications (BRCD)
BRCD - I liked BRCD at
$7.50, so I don't think I'd like
to stand on it, to talk about it
down here in the $6's... I like
Cisco
(CSCO)
more... I like
Juniper (JNPR)
more... a good number.
CSCO, then JNPR, then BRCD...
I blew BRCD. I'm not going
to get them all right, but
that's my take. I think
BRCD's too low to sell, but I
can't endorse it.
|

CSCO |

Cisco Systems, Inc.
(CSCO)

GM |
25.62 |
na |
General Motors
(GM)
GM - I think General
Motors Preferred is the way to
go. It pays you almost 8%.
It pays you to wait. I
think GM Preferred is a good
piece of paper. I do not
want to own the GM common (the
common stock - symbol GM)...

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. |
