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

ELY

13.97

Callaway Golf Co. (ELY)

ELY - You know, I don't know... I was reading in Fortune, about the Titleist brand. You know, there's a secular slowdown in golf... as much as we think there's a lot of business done in golf, it is in a declining industry, so I am not going to recommend ELY. I can't. It's just not enough... there's not enough momentum to the business. It's in a decline.

CTR

16.89

Cato Corp. (CTR)

CTR - No, no... that's a retailer. We're only buying four retailers... we're buying Costco (COST), we're buying TJX (TJX), we're buying Urban Outfitters (URBN), and we're buying Wal-Mart (WMT). We can absolutely trade, if you want, Jones Apparel (JNY), at $15, because of the good yield... and I am sanctioning a trade in Lowe's (LOW), now that Home Depot (HD) is blinking... But we are not investing in retail... not CTR, not Cache (CACH), not Zumiez, Inc. (ZUMZ), not nothing, including Pacific Sunwear (PSUN).

MPEL

13.26

Melco PBL Entertainment (MPEL)

MPEL - I have hated it since $18. I wish I had hated it since $21. I don't want anything to do with gaming. By the way, I think Las Vegas Sands (LVS) is no-go. I've been negative on that. Wynn Resorts (WYNN) reported after the close. I don't care that it's up. I want you to sell it. I don't like International Game Technology (IGT) anymore, although it's down all the way... this is like a five-fer... And, by the way, I don't think Penn National Gaming (PENN)... I don't think that deal ever closes...

LVS

71.93

Las Vegas Sands (LVS)

MVL

29.55

Marvel Entertainment, Inc. (MVL)

MVL - Whoa... for a second there, I thought you were talking about Marvell (MRVL), the technology company... sell, sell, sell!... I told you my friend, Dan Reveev, who introduced me to MVL, when the stock was at $18, said that they'd be making movies... There was another guy who came on. He works for the Wall Street Journal... he said he didn't like it. I think Ironman's big... of course, I'm in Ironman, so it's definitely big... and I think MVL is a winner. Their movie gambit turned out to work. I would pull the trigger, ahead of the big opening...

MRVL

13.55

Marvell Technology Group Ltd. (MRVL)

See MVL comments above for:
MRVL

SAPE

7.47

Sapient Corp. (SAPE)

SAPE - Oh man, you're taxing the system with SAPE. First of all, it's that kind of software that I don't really care for. Second, the management turnover there has just been a nightmare... (buzzer sounds)... No... ix-nay on SAPE...

CSE

14.72

CapitalSource Inc. (CSE)

CSE - You know, a real estate investment trust... I've got to end on a downer? This is the last call... and the last call happens to be negative. I don't like the REITs... sell, sell, sell!... mortgaged, levered business. I want you to stay out of that.

	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.
