PG |
69.44 |
na |
Procter & Gamble Co. (PG)
PG - PG, which has the
best single dividend record, in
terms of putting a new dividend
in... raising the dividend every
year on the New York Stock
Exchange is, without a doubt,
one of my absolute favorite
companies. I urge people -
if they want to find out how to
read an annual report, and what
is a great company in America -
that they go to
PG's annual report. This
company does not tolerate losing
divisions and sheds them...
I think the quarter's going to
be good. I think this is a
great entry point. I want
to
pull the trigger on PG!

WFR |

MEMC Electronic Materials
Inc. (WFR)
WFR - No! I am
telling you right now... that
stock has peaked. This is
a new position for me.
Sell, sell, sell!... I am
telling people they've got to
get out of the WFR, which is for
solar panels. We're
done... we're done with WFR.
We're done. It needs to
go. I am ringing the bell,
ringing the register, telling you
that thing is no good. Get
out, before it's in the house of
pain.

CALM |
37.83 |
na |
Cal-Maine Foods Inc. (CALM)
CALM - Cal-Maine is a
very pro-shareholder company.
The stock got big today... This
is an egg company... and when we
go into a recession, or get
people a little bit short (on
cash)... Let's say, they
don't have as much money...
people do eat eggs. Now,
more importantly, this is a
company that is heavily shorted.
People bet against this company.
It has been confounding the
shorts. Why? Because
the business is darn good.
My take... is that you have a
winner. It's not trying to
do anything other than make
money for shareholders, and I
like it.

CLWR |
14.41 |
na |
Clearwire Corporation
(CLWR)
CLWR - A very
speculative stock that
everybody's thinking that
Sprint
(S)
is going to do a very big to-do
with... there was some news on
the tape about them building out
a network. Let me say
unequivocally... I want you to
sell this stock - sell, sell,
sell - and anything that's
affiliated with Sprint.
I don't think there's a "there"
there. CLWR needs to go,
and I've been right on the
stock.

FDO |
19.12 |
na |
Family Dollar Stores Inc.
(FDO)
FDO - FDO, like
Big Lots Inc. (BIG),
like
Dollar Tree (DLTR),
like Wal-Mart (WMT)...
is where you shop, when you're
getting the beatdown of a
recession... and that's
why I like FDO here. I
will not like it, when the
economy picks up speed. I
do like it now.
|
|
|
|
 |
F |
5.59 |
na |
Ford Motor Co. (F)
F - No. The only
think we like in F is the
preferred... it lets us sit and
wait, while Alan Mullaley (CEO
of Ford) turns the company
around. Now, I just want
to be very honest about F
here... I did not like the big
sale they made this week.
They did not get enough money
out of it... I'm talking about
the (sale to)
Tata (TTM)
of the high-end products (e.g.,
Jaguar and Land Rover)...
I also feel like that the whole
United States auto industry is
just doing awfully, and F is
part of it... and how does
Chrysler make it? I do not
know.

KWK |
35.38 |
na |
Quicksilver Resources Inc.
(KWK)
KWK - You've got
horsesense! That is
absolutely one of my favorite
overlooked plays in the oil and
gas patch. They are
probably maybe the most levered
oil and gas plays to the higher
prices... KWK is
terrific... Quiksilver
Inc. (ZQK),
the apparel company, is an
ix-nay (bear sound). KWK, the
oil and gas company (bull sound)
does incredibly well at these
prices... I want you to
stay in that stock and, if it
drops to $32, I want you to buy
more!
Price target to buy:
$32.00

MSFT |
27.91 |
na |
Microsoft (MSFT)
MSFT - MSFT is run by
my friend, Steve Ballmer (CEO),
who was the business manager of
the Harvard Crimson, when I was
president...
(buzzer sounds)... It took
Steve a little while to get his
feet wet. He's doing a
fabulous job. This
Yahoo! (YHOO)
acquisition... Please
don't raise your price Steve...
don't outbid yourself, like so
many of the analysts are
saying... including that
Citigroup guy... I think
it's going to be a powerful
combination. I think MSFT
is not necessarily a runaway up
stock. I think it's a
great place to be... and, I use
this term very lightly, because
it means that I don't know what
I'm talking about near-term, and
I actually do... it's a good
situation longer term.
When that deal closes, MSFT goes
higher. I hope MSFT uses
cash. They have a lot of
cash. This is just a good
company. It is not - like
I said - it is not one of those
stocks that's going to be like
the old days, but I am certainly
not going to bet against it.

Citigroup (C)
C -
Bank of America (BAC)
is going to get
Countrywide Financial Corp.
(CFC).
Now, let me be very clear about
Citigroup... Vikram Pandit
(CEO) is doing his review.
He needs to do that faster than
he can... he needs to get rid of
everything that Chuck Prince
(former CEO) bought, including
Nikko Cordial. He needs to
raise capital, by selling those
divisions, and then he needs to
teach the shorts a lesson, by
sending the bad stuff to the
Fed... raise the capital... then
go back to work, and rebuild a
great American bank... But,
right now, my case is strictly
bearish on Pandit... And, John
Havens (?), come on the show
please... Come on this show, and
defend what's going on at
Citigroup...

JCP |

J. C. Penney (JCP)
JCP - I don't want to
sell JCP down here, but I've got
to tell you... JCP will
see $32-33 I believe, before it
sees $42 to $43... The execution
has been sloppy. The
company does not seem to have a
game plan, beyond the excellent
Ralph Lauren line that it has
and... I don't like that
part of the segment of retail.
I am going to stay away from
JCP. I think it goes
lower. I want you to stick
with
Costco (COST), if you want retail,
and maybe some URBN...

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. |
