AEO |

20.54 |
American Eagle Outfitters Inc.
(AEO)
AEO - A very tough
call. A lot of insider
buying... The stock has not
had... I went into the
company stores... a bunch of
them this weekend, just because
I keep thinking, what did the
insiders see when they
bought?... I think the
stock marks time between $19 and
$21... until the (Fed rate) cuts
and the (mortgage) refinances
make it so that we feel better
spending. After the
terrible
Macy's
(M)
guidance today, I am not going
to tell you to buy that one...
don't buy, dont' buy...
You know my favorites.
It's
TJX (TJX),
it's
Costco (COST),
and it's
Wal-Mart (WMT),
because that's what people are
trading down to... They're
staying away from these
expensive stores.

6.26 |
Ford Motor Co. (F)
F - Okay... there are
two ways to play Ford... There's
the common stock, F...
Ix-nay (i.e., don't buy) the
common stock... and there's a
piece of Ford Preferred, that
trades aggressively. I
typically don't recommend
preferreds, but I recommended it
for Countrywide, for Thornburg
Mortgage, for GM, and for
Ford... They pay you more to
wait and, if the stock really
comes back, you're going to make
some money in the common stock
too... Ford Preferred!...
[Note: Given the
higher average trading volume,
we believe this symbol is:
FORD MOTOR 7.50 NTS (F-PA),
but cannot be certain, since it
was not specifically mentioned -

FWLT* |
65.68 |
64.89 |
Foster Wheeler (FWLT*)
FWLT* - We don't back
up trucks in this environment.
It's far too dangerous. As
a matter of fact, I removed the
'back up truck' button, because
I was afraid that I might push
it on something I really like,
when we all know this market has
become way too hard to load up
the boat at any particular
level. I started to
pull the
trigger for a little FWLT* for
my charitable trust
today... but I'm buying it
down... I'm buying it slowly...
The stock could go to $60.
It's got a nice discount from
where it was. We know that
Ray Milkovich, who's the CEO,
has got a good book of business.
Only 25% is American. That
said, this is a tough tape.
Let's buy slowly.

Mindray Medical International
(MR)
MR - Interesting
Chinese spec (ulative play) in a
very overheated market where
we're recommending only a very
few names...
Gushan (GU)
for speculation, GU... We
like Baidu (BIDU)
at a discount. We like Focus Media (FMCN),
ahead of the olympics, but
that's all... That's all
we're bullish on, because China
is too hot... too hot to handle,
for the vast majority of
viewers.

TXT |
54.44 |
54.25 |
Textron Inc.
(TXT)
TXT - This defines
this market! I was on
the TXT conference call...
Every division was en fuego!...
Everything was good... Defense
was good... Financial was
good... Helicopters were
great... and what did the stock
do?... Absolutely nothing but go
down... This is why I am
saying, be cautious... Yes, I
want to buy TXT! Just
start at $55... You want
to buy 100 shares?... You
buy your first 25 at $55, then
you wait until $53, then you
wait till $50... It is that
tough out there... That
was a beautiful quarter!
One of the best I've seen, and
yet I still am gun shy to load
up right here.

|
 |
ICE |
115.90 |
122.58 |
InterContinental Exchange,
Inc. (ICE)
ICE - This is not a
political show, but I campaigned
on this show against that
merger... I thought it was
ridiculous that those two
companies could merge, and have
a stranglehold on our people,
who trade futures and options...
when they let that clearing
division merge. They
should never have done it.
I was recommending the
New York Stock Exchange (NYX*),
thinking that Justice
(Department) would do exactly
what they said they'd do...
which is to investigate it.
Now it's too late. Every
stock's getting killed. I
look at ICE, and I think that
they NYX* should swoop in,
before their stock goes to $60,
and pick that one up. I'm
not nearly as worried about ICE
and, by the way, in the end, I
think Justice will fold because,
let's not forget... we do have a
government that's of, by and for
the corporation. But this
has been a nasty blow, because
the
CME Group (CME)
had a great quarter. Let's
be careful out there. ICE
at $110, then maybe ICE at par
(i.e., $100 a share)... which is
genuine Wall Street jibberish
for ICE at $100...
Price target to buy first:
$110.00
Price target to buy again:
$100.00

ELN |
25.55 |
24.86 |
Elan Corp. plc (ELN)
ELN - It's just that I
lost so much money playing an
Alzheimer's hoped-for drug, and
it's got some efficacy with
Forest Labs... I never
pulled the
trigger, but darned if I'm going to
tell you not to buy. I
should have just listened to the
guy...
|
|
 |
ACI |
46.73 |
46.36 |
Arch Coal Inc. (ACI)
ACI - All right, I
screwed up, and I'm not the guy
to go to one this... Why?
Because I believed that the
restrictions were going to be so
taught on coal that you would
not get any upside, because the
democrats and the republicans
refuse to endorse any sort of
measure that would have given us
emission controls, so at least
we would know what to do...
Sure enough, Michael Ward...
(buzzer sounds)... the fantastic
CEO from
CSX Corp. (CSX)
called in, and told us that coal
is all export!... ACI is
good.
Peabody (BTU)
is better,
and I'm re-opening the book on
Patriot Coal (PCX)...
Maybe that's a good one, due to
the recent spin-off...
I'd like ACI to come
down, but I was wrong... It's
not domestic, it's
international...

 |
INTC |
19.92 |
19.76 |
Intel (INTC)
INTC - Okay, INTC
reported a not-good quarter.
The stock then climbs from $19
to $20, for absolutely no good
reason. Meanwhile, after
the close (today), John Chambers
(CEO) gives terrible from
Cisco
(CSCO),
sending all of technology down.
I want you sell INTC right
here... sell it! I think
the stock goes back to where it
reported. Sell, sell,
sell!... I've been no fan
of tech... either momentum tech,
or any other kind of tech, since
the year began and, I've got to
tell you, it ain't getting
better, it's getting worse...

|
 |
CIM |
18.82 |
18.75 |
CHIMERA INVESTMENT (CIM)
CIM - They raised a
lot of money... I feel very
confident... I recommended CIM
a couple of points ago...
This is that one that is CIM...
I think that this stock is one
of the two best ways to play the
crisis in housing... the other
being
Annaly (NLY*).
This one has raised money to be
able to pick and choose among
the rubble. It's good.
I prefer NLY*, because of the
dividend, but you're not going
to go wrong with either. I
would stick with either... I
would stick with Mike Farrell
(CEO of NLY*)...

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. |
