INFY

42.41

41.80

Infosys Technologies Ltd. (INFY)

INFY -  I have to tell you, I like Accenture (ACN) more, because it's got a bigger book of business, and it still has a lot of great Indian people working for it.

Petrobras Energia Participaciones S.A. (PZE)

PZE -  No... Oh boy... The only time that I... Everytime I mention this stock, I get completely savaged...  I just want to tell you to take it off the table, and buy... Petroleo Brasileiro (PBR)... I like PBR.  I want to be really specific.  I like PBR.

MA

195.88

194.00

Mastercard (MA)

MA -  You've got horse sense!  You are absolutely right.  I say the same thing, because you know we like MA!  Every quarter they blow it away...  every quarter, they find a way to get more profit out of their fees.  I'm hoping it comes down more on Visa, because I am going to get back on the bandwagon, and really push MA...
 

SIGM

30.61

32.00

Sigma Designs Inc. (SIGM)

SIGM -  It's stock got clobbered today... I've got to tell you, this was a great Blu-Ray play... I got behind this.  I got totally... I have egg on my face... I want to be careful with SIGM.  I do think it's too low, but I was bullish too high, so I am uniquely discredited and, of course, whipping myself, because... jeez, I've gotten some wrong.  It's going to happen...
 

SWN

68.13

66.71

Southwestern Energy Co. (SWN)

SWN -  SWN, Anadarko Petroleum (APC),  XTO Energy (XTO*), Devon Energy (DVN), Chesapeake Energy - Preferred (CHK-PD)... These are monsters... (buzzer sounds)...  We had Bob Simpson on from XTO*... and he had nothing but good things to say about SWN.  A 52-week high today.  You know we like natural gas.  I am still going to back up the truck on XTO*, which I own for my charitable trust... not everything I did was stupid... and I think that stock goes higher...

GNW

24.16

23.98

Genworth Financial Inc. (GNW)

GNW -  They're my life insurance provider... We've got to distinguish...  I think they're a great life insurance provider... I'm glad that I use them.  I have total faith in them...  Their business has not been great...  Prudential (PRU)'s has not been great, but PRU is going to bounce back faster.  Do you mind if we sell GNW - even as I use them for life insurance - and we take advantage of PRU, which is down too much.  Stick with PRU, sell the GNW...

Symbol keys:

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.
