CT - And also
American Capital Strategies
(ACAS)...
I'm not against these companies.
What they do require is a
massive amount of homework to
feel comfortable. Why?
Because the media is relentless
in writing negative stories
about these mezzanine lenders.
I think they have a place in a
portfolio. I have not been
able to
pull the trigger personally,
ever, because I worry about that
I don't know the companies and
what they own well enough...
If you've done the homework,
then I bless the transaction.
LDK - LDK has done
well... it's done it without me.
I have been liking
First Solar (FSLR).
That has stalled. And I
like
Applied Materials (AMAT)
as a hybrid tech play. I'm
sticking with those two, and
have not wanted to go down the
food path to the Chinese names,
but you're doing with that, and
bless you for it.
DSX - I happen
to like the shipping industry,
because I think it's making a
very big comeback. Let me
just say that I have been only
been recommending - of the
larger ones, there are smaller
ones that I like, but let's
stick with the larger ones...
I like
Nordic American Tanker (NAT).
I think that's a winner.
And I have been blessing
Frontline Ltd. (FRO),
which is actually down a dollar
today, and it's off $5 from its
high. Those are the two
I'm using... and I don't want to
go down deeper in the food
chain.
NM - I'll tell you the
truth... That's one where I'm
not going to stick my neck out
for fear of this... (sound of
getting head chopped off)...
I want to see the numbers.
Again, with the shipping
business is rolling, everything
seems to work, but I've been
sticking with the ones that
brought me... and everybody
knows this
Frontline Ltd. (FRO)
has been the biggest winner in
the group... so that's what I'm
going with... and don't forget
Nordic American Tanker (NAT).
PG - Okay... I have
puzzled mightily over the
decline in PG... to the point
where I said, all right... let
me look at the chart... is there
some sort of reverse head and
shoulders thing going on?... PG
has got raw cost problems.
There's no doubt about it, but
this is a superior technology
company... Let's do this...
Those who are not in the
performance business... those
who don't care about the next
six months... I think you
take...
(buzzer sounds)... I think
you take a position in PG.
It's gone down enough.
It's gone down in a straight
line. The two that I have
marveled on... that I cannot
believe are going down like
this... are PG and
Pepsi (PEP)
which, by the way, is a snack
food company, with a very good
soda business. I think PG
and PEP are right to buy here.
It's time to
pull the trigger!
CPST - No. Too
speculative for this guy.
It's had a nice run. It's
back from the brink. When
I first started the show, I
liked it. It's a turbine
company. If I want
turbines, I'm going to
Caterpillar Inc. (CAT).
I hate to be so big, when CPST's
been such a great spec, but I
can't get behind that spec,
after it's doubled...
PBR - PBR is good.
But it got to be so big, that it
started to dwarf all the rest of
the world. My advice is to
wait until that stock falls 10%
from its high (i.e., $73.15).
We're almost there... In two
points (i.e., down to $68.32),
when oil goes back to $125, PBR
is right, because of the
gigantic buyback. I like
PBR. Why am I
price-sensitive? Because I
think the oil futures hit a high
for a while... Slink back
to $125... been selling oil
stocks for...
my charitable trust... I
can't, therefore, recommend them
right here. If PBR comes
down, then you do some buying...
because, in general, I like
PBR... I like Brazil...

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.
