Jim had the following comments
before starting the Lightning
Round:
JJC: Hey, before we
get to the Lightning Round...
another one bites the dust...
This guy (Gary Dunton, CEO of
MBIA Inc. (MBI)...
he was up there (i.e., on the
CEO Wall of Shame) for about a
nanosecond... Gary Dunton...
He was one of those guys who was
here, and then he was gone...
He'll be very missed... by
someone... not by you, or by
me... A nice open space
here... I've got a couple of
guys in mind... I bet you
they last as long as Dunton
did...

SLE |
13.00 |
13.00 |
Sara Lee Corp. (SLE)
SLE - Hey sunshine,
that's a real stinky one... I've
given up on SLE... This
thing feels like, if you're
sliding down on a sled... down
the North Face of Everest...
That thing is going absolutely
nowhere. Sell, sell,
sell!... I've got like 40
food companies that I like more
than SLE...
|
|
 |
HUM |
69.15 |
69.00 |
Humana Inc. (HUM)
HUM - You say Humana,
I say Yamana... I'm buying
Yamana
(AUY),
I'm not buying HUM... HUM is the
healthcare company that... let
me just be very honest...
I think people are worried that
Medicare Advantage is going to
go away under the democrats...
It could conceivably happen...
But, here's the deal... I think
HUM is going to have the best
earnings momentum of anyone in
that group, still, for at least
another 18 months... I own
Unitedhealth
(UNH*)...
Why?... Because it's just too
darn cheap, and the Justice
Department just approved the
Sierra acquisition... I
can't run away from HUM...
I am running toward - this is a
two-fer - AUY, which I bought
while I was allegedly on
vacation last which, for
my charitable trust...

XRAY |
39.66 |
39.55 |
DENTSPLY International Inc.
(XRAY)
XRAY - Okay, not
great... I've been having some
real bad luck with teeth, as
everyone knows - including my
dentist - in Align Technology
(ALGN).
I have to tell you, I'm not
going to go there on this one...
Don't buy, don't buy... 10
years ago, this was a great
growth stock... I no longer feel
that way... I just don't...
|
|
 |
GRMN |
62.78 |
62.05 |
Garmin Ltd. (GRMN)
GRMN - Oh man!... Why
do you hurt me?!... Here's the
problem... GRMN has had it, it's
finished, it's done...
Check out Novatel (NVTL)...
The global positioning market is
kaput, and it's going to be
destroyed by
Nokia (NOK)...
I don't even want you to get
near GRMN... I am urging you to
sell GRMN... Sell, sell,
sell!... GRMN is history.
Maybe it goes back to $70, and
you can sell it... That
game is over my friend, over...
If you really need global
positioning that bad, you can go
buy NOK, okay?...

GS* |
177.36 |
175.48 |
Goldman Sachs (GS*)
GS* - I don't know...
Lloyd Blankfein (CEO)... They
might as well just tar and
feather the guy... I mean,
it's unbelievable... What do
they think he's doing there?...
Sitting there, burning up
money?... I mean it's amazing
how much he's now hated...
You would think that he's long
on mortgage... you would think
that he's Mr. Sub-Prime, for
heaven's sake... I've got to
tell you though, there's a
problem... Sanford Bernstein is
at $18 estimate. The
Street's at $19.30.
They're going to cut numbers...
down to $18... There it's going
to be... probably a decent
stock... I'm not buying
anymore for (my charitable trust)...
until everybody's lowered to
$18... When everybody's
lowered to $18... between there
and book. Book (value) is
$90. Pay one and a half
times book, you get $135.
So, between $135 and $170,
there's a level where I will buy
more. But not yet.
Not until every single bear is
flushed out and shot in the
name... and I hate the
bears, and I believe in Lloyd,
who's the most underpaid man on
Wall Street, and I'm not
kidding.

SDXC |

10.68 |
Switch & Data Facilities
(SDXC)
SDXC - I haven't
looked at this thing for so
long, this co-location
business... I actually
once looked at these guys... I
don't like this internet service
provider business one bit, not
at all... No, I'm not touching
it. Sell, sell, sell...
co-location not for me...
|

MTW |
42.08 |
41.85 |
Manitowoc Co. Inc. (MTW)
MTW - A very, very
good company. It had a
beautiful quarter. I'm
watching, by the way... Matt
Nesto's got this great series
going on about American
Industry... I am a team player
from way back!... And I think
MTW... I wish they'd get rid of
the ice making machine, because
the crane business is en fuego
(i.e., on fire, doing well)...
A lot of Eastern Europe
business... That company is
great!

NYB |
17.18 |
17.01 |
New York Community Bancorp
(NYB)
NYB - We don't play
that game... It's
unsportsmanlike to recommend
that stock as an acquisition...
just wrong. Particularly
because I don't like the
fundamentals. If you want
to buy a bank in the New York
area, may I suggest that you buy
Hudson City Savings Bank (HCBK)...
(buzzer sounds)... which
earlier in the year received my
Bailey Building and Loan award
for being right...

SKX |
22.25 |
22.11 |
Skechers USA Inc. (SKX)
SKX - Delivered a good
quarter... I've been behind SKX,
I've been behind JAKKS (JAKK).
No one's listening on either
one. I think you can buy
SKX, up to $25. That's the
kind of conviction I have.
I like that stock... Buy, buy,
buy!... I would stick with
SKX...
Price target to buy: Under
$25.00

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. |
