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

AAPL

140.98

na

Apple Inc. (AAPL)

AAPL -  I am now really liking AAPL because of Mac sales.  I think iPhone sales, next year at this time, are going to be gigantic.  Here's what I want you to do... I want you to wait for a 10-point pullback... or maybe just an 8-point... pull the trigger and get a better average... and you won't regret it...  Then, if it goes to $100, consider it a Godsend.

Price target to buy:  $130.98 - $132.98

HANS

38.19

na

Hansen Natural (HANS)

HANS -  No, no, no.  That's a yesteryear stock... Sell, sell, sell...  It had its move... I put that right up there with CROCS (CROX)...  HANS and CROX... 

CROX

18.80

na

CROCS (CROX)

CROX

 

       

LULU

31.15

na

Lululemon Athletic (LULU)

LULU -  No... you're looking at LULU through rose-colored glasses, my friend...  I think that story's played out.  We recommended it when it came public, and then we said sell it at $50, and we are not going away from that.  The stock is over-valued, even as I like the clothes, particularly - yes, indeed, in a sexist comment - on women...

AEM

70.35

na

Agnico-Eagle Mines Ltd. (AEM)

AEM -  What's the problem?  We like a gold stock.  We think gold's going to $1600.  Here's what I would do... Next time it falls 10 points from its high, I want you to buy even more... Why?...AEM, along with Yamana Gold (AUY*), represent gold stocks that I believe have great growth, regardless of the price of gold, although I think gold is going to $1600...  Peter Marrone (CEO of AUY*) said that to me on this show.  We recommended AUY* at $6... It had tripled... He's money!

AUY*

16.91

na

Yamana Gold Inc. (AUY*)

See AEM comments above for:
AUY*

TIE

15.21

na

Titanium Metals Corp. (TIE)

TIE -  No, no, no, no...   I never even liked that when I was pushing Allegheny Technologies (ATI) as my stock of the year in 2006 which, by the way, was the greatest performer in the S&P 500...  But, like Nixon, they'll never write a book about me...  I have to tell you that I think TIE represents the weak sister - sell, sell, sell! - in that whole titanium group, which is also weak because the Russians are pumping out titanium.  

CSE

11.36

na

CapitalSource Inc. (CSE)

CSE -  No.  Every single breeze seems to sell that one...  I think that CSE is frankly another one of these securitized mezzanine loans, like American Capital Strategies (ACAS), that I'm concerned about.  I don't have any conviction... Now, they will call me and say, Jim, you don't know what your talking about... I get "you don't know what you're talking about" quite a bit when I talk about the mezzanine finance stocks, but I don't want to touch them, because they're too risky for the show...

ACAS

36.41

na

American Capital Strategies (ACAS)

See CSE comments above for:
ACAS

WM

12.70

na

Washington Mutual (WM)

WM -  WM has a great deposit base, but they have the worst management in the industry... with that whole board is up there on the Wall of Shame... and it ain't getting any better there, but I believe they could issue a lot of equity and make sure that they stay in business, or get a takeunder, like our friends, Bear Stearns (BSC). Now, Citigroup (C) - if Vikram Pandit (CEO) starts stripping that place of the $40 billion in assets, including many of the stupid acquisitions that Chuckie Prince (former CEO) added, that would be fine too.  Here's the issue... they are just the two worst in the group...  Why not go with JPMorgan Chase & Co (JPM)?  Why not go with Goldman Sachs (GS*)?...  We like best of breed on this show.  JPM and GS* are the two best players, and that's who we want to go with... Oh, and Hudson City Bancorp (HCBK), if you want to have a little savings and loan.

C

CVX

84.54

na

Chevron (CVX)

CVX -  CVX's too cheap...  All the bears came out...  We had four down oil days, and suddenly everybody was an oil bear...  saying, oh, that oil is going to go under $65 a barrel... I have to tell you something... CVX... I like it.  I was surprised it acted so well, in spite of the Valero (VLO) margin blow up, because Chevron has a lot of gas stations...  I like CVX. I like Conoco (COP*) down here, off the VLO blow up... and you know I like the whole complex... including, yes, the most challenged by Russia... BP (BP*)...  I want to stay with the oils...

COP*

74.53

na

ConocoPhillips (COP*)

Netflix, Inc.


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.
