Name/Comments
(see comments above for
each) |
|
 |
T |
36.05 |
36.24 |
AT&T (T)
T - Anytime T goes to
$35, you're going to hear me say
buy it. That's where it
yields great. That's the
floor for that stock.
Is T doing really fabulously?
No. The whole country is
slowing down. Do I believe
that that dividend is great, and
they will continue to buy back
stock and increase the dividend?
Hallelujah, I do! Which is
why, at $35, I will
pull the trigger 9 times out of 10.
Price target to buy:
$35.00
|
|
 |
MVL |
26.29 |
26.28 |
Marvel Entertainment, Inc.
(MVL)
MVL - I think the best
may be behind them. This
is a really good company.
We've liked this stock. I
think you ought to
ring the register... Sell,
sell, sell... I think that
this is the kind of stock that
should have
come in, along with
Mattel (MAT)...
It didn't have the same obvious
problems... But I like
MAT, at $20, more than I like
MVL here.
|
|
|
MAT |
20.37 |
20.39 |
Mattel Inc. (MAT)
See MVL comments above for:
MAT
Price target to buy:
$20.00
|
|
|
VSH |
8.82 |
8.81 |
Vishay Intertechnology Inc.
(VSH)
VSH - I've known the
company for a long time.
It's a component company.
I have not liked component
companies one bit.
Component companies and airlines
are two companies I'm not going
to recommend on the show.
Just too much money lost trying
to call a bottom in both groups.
|
|
|
NWL |
22.70 |
22.72 |
Newell Rubbermaid Inc. (NWL)
NWL - I thought that
Ketcham, when he came from
Procter & Gamble Co. (PG)
would really turns things
around. He has been a
total disappointment. I
know the yield's good, but I
have stocks that yield that.
I am not going to recommend that
stock. I am really
disappointed in that management.
They've got the Calphelon
dishware, which I love...
They've got the Sharpies, which
I use to sign the books...
and they've got the terrific
blinds business, tools... and
they've done nothing!
They've done nothing! I
say sell.
|
|
|
AMX |
58.81 |
58.76 |
America Movil (AMX)
AMX - I want people to
understand... What I am about to
say is going to seem contrary to
a lot of people. I like
AMX very much. There's a
big raid going on, sending down
all the Latin American stocks
that I like. So, what we
do when we have a raid - and
people are hitting down stocks -
is we do the following...
If we want to buy 100 AMX, we
buy 25 here... Then we use
what's known as a scale...
When the stock gets to $50-$55,
you buy another 25 (shares).
When the stock gets to $50, you
buy another 25... then you hope
that it stops going down.
We are using wide scales,
because this market is all over
the place, and we've got to be
conservative.
|
|
|
BX |
14.62 |
14.60 |
The Blackstone Group (BX)
BX - That kind of
company is so yesteryear.
It shouldn't have come public,
as far as I'm concerned.
You never really know what they
own. Remember, I've also
been saying that
Fortress Investment Group
(FIG)
shouldn't be bought, and that
stock's up a little bit. I
would sell that one. I
don't like these companies,
where you don't really know what
they own, you just say, listen,
I think they're good guys...
That isn't how I make money... I
make money by owning companies
that make things... Sell,
sell, sell!

ADS |
44.69 |
44.80 |
Alliance Data Systems (ADS)
ADS - I don't know...
This and
Harman International
(HAR)...
Once those deals break down, to
be honest, I just don't care
about it... I do not care.
I don't want to be there.
I want to sell, sell, sell.
There's no deal. The
company's disruptive. No
thanks.

MLNM |
14.16 |
14.14 |
Millennium Pharmaceuticals
Inc. (MLNM)
MLNM - Sell, sell,
sell... I've known this MLNM forever...
It's not up stock. I just don't
like it. I think
Cephalon Inc. (CEPH)'s
got an approval coming up, and I think
you would take profit from that. I
do like
Genentech Inc. (DNA).
I'm sticking with that one.

CMI |
49.21 |
49.26 |
Cummins Inc. (CMI)
CMI - We were there.
We did that stock, we had a
great gain, and we took it... I
do not want to own that. Sell,
sell, sell. I'll own
Caterpillar (CAT)
below $70. I have a better
view of that one.

CAT |
73.73 |

Caterpillar Inc. (CAT)

CAT
Price target to buy: Below $70.00

|
NCC |
9.48 |
9.80 |
National City Corporation
(NCC)
NCC - That's one of
the institutions I try not to
talk about... I'll tell
you this... Your money is safe
at National City... That
does not mean you should buy the
stock. I don't think that
company is going to be able to
stay independent. But I
believe that the bid will come
underneath (the price) where the
stock is - (called a
takeunder) - in a
Bear Stearns (BSC)
like fashion... So, your
money's safe in the bank, but
not in the stock.
|
|
|
RIO |
31.05 |
30.25 |
CVRD (RIO)
RIO - The market's too
awful to back up the truck.
We're never going to do that
anymore. I like RIO right
here. I would buy some but
then, you know what? I
would wait for it to go lower to
buy more. Remember what
we're doing. We're
learning that the market's going
to give us big dips - where
we'll use the dips to buy - and
then big ups - where we'll do
a little schnitzel...
That's what's operative right
here. That's what I'd do
with RIO. I would stick
with it... I wouldn't buy
it, until it's down more, below
$30...
Price target to buy: Below
$30.00
|
|
|
FCX* |
87.60 |
85.00 |
Freeport-McMoRan (FCX*)
FCX* - Ouch!
Ouchy... This is, again,
the kind of stock that I'm
talking about, like
America Movil (AMX)...
FCX*, because everything's so
crazy right now... there's
bizarre volatility... that stock
is trading in 10-point ranges
now... I like FCX* and I
own it for
my charitable trust... I
bought it in the $60s... It got
to $110. I sold half of
it. Now it's coming back
down. I would buy... I'm
going to rebuild this 100 shares
at a time for my trust...
But not beginning until $80.
I have no desire to pay above my
basis, but I do think the
stock is cheap. Buy it
slow... buy it in increments,
and don't fret, because copper's
a Chinese play. It is not
an American play.
Price target to buy:
$80.00
|
|
|
RAD |
2.50 |
2.47 |
Rite Aid Corp. (RAD)
RAD - They did have a
good month, but remember what we
said after Mary Sammons blew
it... she's the CEO...
They had two quarters that were
bad, so they are distinctly in
the penalty box. I am not
going to re-recommend that stock
until they have two good
quarters. They've got to
do two... They are totally
in the penalty box, and it's a
major penalty.

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.

Thumbs down -

buy or to sell the stock,
based on his comments
We do our best to interpret
Jim's opinion on stocks, as

show. Please read his

|
 |
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. |
