Name/Comments
(see comments above for
each) |
|
 |
STT |
66.54 |
na |
State Street Corp. (STT)
STT - This was, I
think, kind of guilt by
association. But you know
on this show, we only like
Hudson City Bancorp (HCBK)
and JPMorgan Chase & Co (JPM)
and, sometimes, Goldman Sachs (GS*).
Every other financial is...
sell, sell, sell!
Particularly the monolines,
which we know as being
Ambac
(ABK),
MGIC Investment Corp. (MTG),
MBIA Inc. (MBI),
and
PMI Group Inc. (PMI)...
Sell, sell, sell!

|
RMBS |
23.73 |
na |
Rambus Inc. (RMBS)
RMBS - It does have a
great graphics chip, and I do
think that's important.
And, by the way, shame on me...
No sooner do I say I don't like
the semiconductors, then
Broadcom Corp. (BRCM)
does its first good number in
six years. I think that NVIDIA Corporation (NVDA)
and RMBS both have properties
that I like, however, let me be
very clear and say this... I
can't go positive on tech, after
one day, one good number...
RMBS is up nicely. I
actually think you should be
thinking about selling a little
RMBS.

NVDA |
20.44 |
na |
NVIDIA Corporation (NVDA)
See RMBS comments above for:
NVDA

|
|
SRE |
57.50 |
na |
Sempra Energy (SRE)
SRE - This was a
company that was spun off by
Duke Energy (DUK)...
This was just a fantastic
natural gas play. Again, I
have slighted this one, along
with Questar Corp. (STR),
along with
Ultra Petroleum Corp. (UPL)...
I love this group! The
natural gas play lives, and SRE
lives with it!

|
TIN |
11.92 |
na |
Temple-Inland Inc. (TIN)
TIN - You hold it!
This is a terrific... they've
restructured the company.
Any little lift in the economy,
TIN is going to be fabulous.
This is the company that
Carl Icahn basically restructured
and what's left is just so
cheap, I wish I owned some
myself!
|
|
|
PENN |
39.62 |
na |
Penn National Gaming (PENN)
PENN - I'm worried
that the deal for PENN won't
close. The only casino
stocks that are doing well are
the ones that are in Macau.
And that is because Macau
announced that you can't build
anymore in Macau. PENN may
not get the financing... and
that is certainly contrary to
what everybody is saying.
I am worried that you could
still lose money... Sell, sell,
sell!... It's down a lot and it
ain't done. I want you to
go.
|
|
|
BUD |
47.72 |
na |
Anheuser-Busch
Companies Inc. (BUD)
BUD - No, no, no...
It's good, but you know that we
like
Molson Coors Brewing Company
(TAP),
which is on fire, and we've been
really right on. I want
you out of BUD.

|
ZOLT |
26.43 |
na |
Zoltek Companies Inc. (ZOLT)
ZOLT - I played
ZOLT... played it... caught the
double... left it. The
last quarter, not that good.
I do like wind power, but I'm
not going to get in behind that
one... Don't buy, don't buy.
Inconsistent player...
inconsistent. I don't have
room for it.
|
|
|
PM* |
52.00 |
na |
Philip Morris International
(PM*)
PM* - I have been
buying both
Altria (MO*)
and PM* consistently for
my charitable trust. I like
them both. PM*'s got more
growth and MO* has a bigger
dividend. Now let me
explain something... this is
important. I have been
criticized beyond belief in
email for being an idiot for
sticking with these two.
And, just today, PM* reported
one of the most beautiful
quarters... and I was thinking,
c'mon guys... now email me and
say you're sorry!
|
|
|
MO* |
22.30 |
na |
Altria (MO*)
See PM* comments above for:

|
|
FCTR |
29.98 |
na |
First Charter Corp. (FCTR)
FCTR - To me, there's
no real edge to it. It's
consulting. I'm not real
crazy about it. I frankly
think that, uh... You
know, it's not a bad company...
I see no reason to own the
financials other than
Hudson City Bancorp (HCBK)
and JPMorgan Chase & Co (JPM)
and I am warming up to the
insurers after that huge
Safeco Corp. (SAF)
by Liberty Mutual... Let's
look at
Chubb (CB)...

Chubb (CB)

|
|
TRN |
27.24 |
na |
Trinity Industries Inc. (TRN)
TRN - No, no, no...
We had Michael Ward yesterday,
who's the CEO of
CSX Corp. (CSX),
which delivered a monster
quarter...
(buzzer sounds)... He's made us
more money than anybody.
His stock has beaten 90% of the
S&P 500... and, yet, there's a
fight to get rid of him by some
moron hedge fund, which is just
ridiculous! I feel that
the railcar business is not a
good business. Now,
Michael said good things about
needing more railcars, but we
looked at TRN to try to make
money, and we couldn't do it, so
we said thumbs down to TRN.
But thumbs up to CSX...

CSX |

MCF |

Contango Oil & Gas Co. (MCF)
MCF - You've got a
winner. MCF is good...
I like natural gas stocks a lot.

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 -

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. |
