Full Company
Name/Comments
(see comments above for
each)
WMI - This is a
company that is really doing
much better than the gross
domestic product. It's
really well run... they're very
shareholder-oriented...
WMI is a solid, solid stock...
buy, buy, buy!... and a very
good buy here.
DRYS - The whole
sector is coming back, and
coming back hard... world trade
is coming back. I have
repeatedly emphasized that I
like FRO. A 52-week
high... I think yours will
do fine too. But FRO's
been the play... it's been a
new-high machine!
ATN - I like it.
I like the Marcellus Shale...
It's the greatest area of
natural gas in this country,
outside of the Barnett Shale,
outside of Dallas/Ft. Worth.
I am so angry at myself. I
was going to do a piece on
Continental Resources Inc. (CLR)...
All week, I worked on CLR... all
weekend, I worked on CLR...
That's a South Dakotan play...
That one went up like 7 points
today... But yours is going
higher. ATN is going
higher, and I totally, totally
think that that is a terrific
natural gas play. You're
in good shape.
KR - You know, I was
looking at the chart book this
week, and get the charts
delivered to me every Saturday
by Standard & Poors... and
here's what I saw... I saw
that both Safeway (SWY)
and KR were doing breakouts...
and I think the breakouts are
for real. And I think you
would do quite well in KR here.
I also noticed that
Whole Foods Market Inc. (WFMI)
is making a comeback, but KR's a
cheaper valuation. KR... I
say
pull the trigger! I think
you've got a winner. The
pin action in supermarkets is
great.
TEX - I have been
surprised and chagrined... that
TEX has not kept up with
Caterpillar (CAT).
I think, in many ways, TEX is
cheaper. It's got a great
worldwide business. I say
that TEX... I am really bullish
on it. That was the stock
that I did my $80-to-$120 show.
That's been the poorest
performer. I think it
plays, yes indeed, catch up to
the rest of the group.
TDY - I've always felt
that TDY was excellent...
I think this is a very
interesting niche aerospace
play... it specializes in
communications, electronics...
But, you know what? It's
had a big run. I don't
know... I'm tempted to
say, don't buy, don't buy
here... Let's wait for a
pullback. There are a lot
of other stocks that are ready
to roll in that group, including
one that I've been looking at,
Ball Corporation (BLL),
which has got an aerospace
business. It's kind of
interesting...
V - Visa's up 20
points.
Mastercard
(MA)
is up 80 points, since the
deal... That's win-win, because
obviously...
(buzzer sounds)... How
high will V go? It's going
to go to
par... There's absolutely no supply up there.
There are lock-ups (i.e.,
insiders are still prevented
from selling any stock, because
it's too soon after their recent
IPO)... People keep coming... Institutions
keep buying it... Why do they
buy it? A simple
explanation... You've got to
have a dedicated portion of your
portfolio to financials... Do
you go buy
Countrywide
(CFC),
do you buy
Citigroup (C),
do you buy
Wells Fargo (WFC)?
No! You buy V or MA...
They give you the financials,
without the downside credit
risk, which is why they're not
done going up!
CPHD - You know, I
picked this one... You're
absolutely right... Barron's
actually attacked me for it,
which is very difficult... and I
think that CPHD is still good
but, honestly, on a valuation
basis, can I refer you to its
competitor? Which is
Becton Dickinson (BDX)...
I think that BDX has a much more
solid earnings profile, so I'm
going to say, don't buy CPHD up
here, and go buy BDX.

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.
