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

COH

26.95

27.58

Coach Inc. (COH)

COH -  COH is difficult...  COH is dirt cheap at $26, but so what...  I don't have a catalyst to get it moving again.  We know that high-end spending is not holding up...  We know that COH is nothing special, in the end...  It's really hard to say that...  I think the stock could go to $23-24, before I feel the urgency to pull the trigger.

ZOLT

20.97

21.59

Zoltek Companies Inc. (ZOLT)

ZOLT -  All right...  ZOLT was a trade that we had here two years ago on the show... because they make the high-carbon steel that goes into windmills...  And we really liked it, and we made a quick 100%, and then we left it... And then we saw the stock go up and up, and we felt very bad... but we realized that we had made our gains.  Now they missed the quarter  (buzzer sounds)...  There's a lot of steel going into windmills... the composite fiber...  ZOLT did not deliver and, in this market, when you do not deliver, and your stock is expensive, like ZOLT, we're of the belief... even down here at the 52-week low, I do not want to touch ZOLT.

MT

72.04

75.42

Arcelor Mittal (MT)

MT -  When you're doing MT, you're buying steel...  I like steel, but I don't want to buy that one.  I think they're more of a potential acquirer.  It's a very well-run company.  I am going to do a segment about steel, later on this week...   Stay tuned, but it's not the right level...    We've got to have a real edge, before you can go and buy some.  I'm keeping you on the sidelines...
 

PCLN

109.77

113.19

Priceline.com Inc. (PCLN)

PCLN -  PCLN is one of those stories... and I know I've got to wrap it up... I went too long in the first segments... (which explains why there were only four stocks in tonight's Lightning Round)...   PCLN is one of those stories... They blew the cover off the ball...  they did great...  You know what it reminds me of?  We had this fabulous guy on the other day, Marc Benioff, CEO of Salesforce.com (CRM)...  He blew the cover off the ball... and now PCLN has come all the way back.  My take is, I don't have another catalyst that takes it higher.  The fact that it is doing well is not enough to buy a stock in this game...  Don't buy, don't buy...  I am going to say 'don't buy' to one of the best-run companies that's doing fabulously in Europe.  Why?  Without an edge...  without a stock being down a lot...  without a dividend... without a catalyst... I can't have you stick with it.

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.
