Name/Comments
(see comments above for
each)
AUY - They missed the
quarter, and there is no excuse
to miss the quarter... now that
gold is done going up, I cannot
venture into the deep waters
that are AUY. If I needed
a gold stock, I would go with
Agnico-Eagle Mines Ltd. (AEM).
I do like to have, long term, a
gold position... but I've got to
tell you something... this
commodity selloff is so bad
that, even when I said I like
the natural gas and oil, it's
got to be for a trade only,
because there are so many funds
that got this wrong, and they're
hammering everybody.
RIMM - Overdone to the
downside! I mean, the
whole tech thing was just
ridiculous today.
Corning Inc. (GLW)
was bad... Last night we
got a call... I said, listen,
I'm worried about big-screen TV,
but I thought it was getting
cheap... Oh boy, was it
ever cheap today... and it just
sent down all of tech.
I've got to tell you, I am not
buying this over-reaction in
tech. RIMM went up 15
points from here. I think
it can do it again.
Apple (AAPL)'s
got a big event next week.
I think AAPL's okay.
Honestly, GLW and
Dell Inc. (DELL)
are not tech to me. I'm
not saying tech's great, but I
am saying I'd rather own tech
than sell tech right here,
particularly after this monster
selloff of the last two days.
TAP - This one's way
overdone. Now, I happen to
like
Brown-Forman Corporation
(BF-B).
BF-B reported a quarter and
suddenly nobody likes that
either. I like BF-B.
I like TAP. I remember
there was a viewer who called me
on it, and said, listen, you
should be recommending
Anheuser-Busch (BUD).
That is obviously right.
BUD is done. That's gotten
a takeover bid. The hops
situation, the raw costs of beer
have come down... the raw costs
of the can have come down...
I want to reiterate that I think
this TAP is way too down...
I want to buy TAP... I
want to buy TAP...
ADCT - Obviously an
inexpensive stock but I do not
like telco... ADCT is going to
trade with
Corning Inc. (GLW).
GLW is fiber. I think ADCT
is too hard. I think it's
too hard. I would
actually... it's unbelievable...
I prefer MOT and NOK to ADCT.
I say stay away... don't buy,
don't buy... Just too
hard... some stocks are just too
hard to own... and that one is
one of them.
MGM - $10 a share
ahead? C'mon... Ca-ching,
ca-ching, ca-ching (sell it!)...
I think we are over casinos in
this country. We have far
too many casinos. I don't
like the margins of the casino
business. I think Macau is
saving a couple of casinos.
But I have left that group.
I put that group in the Sell
Block at the beginning of the
year, and I like that
positioning... sell, sell,
sell... and I'm not opening up
the Sell Block anytime soon...
no early release for these
guys... no conjugal visits
either...
EBAY - No, no, no...
EBAY, frankly the volume is
declining... This company would
be better bought for the PayPal
business. I cannot get in
front of EBAY and I cannot get
in front of
Yahoo! (YHOO).
I've got enough trouble by
liking
Google (GOOG)
and
Apple (AAPL)
here and
Research
In Motion (RIMM).
I don't need more trouble and
I've got to tell you, that one
is trouble.
SQM - It was the only
fertilizer and lithium company
that I was willing to stick
with, as I turned negative on
that concept with the
ag... and I've been killed in this
one... I mean, they
have just crushed me. It
has just been a monster, and I
still think it represents great
value... but I'm seeing the
Agrium (AGU)...
unbelievable... I am
seeing the
Potash (POT)...
amazing... I am seeing the
Mosaic (MOS)...
killing me... and, I've got to
tell you, I think you're going
to have to take some pain... I
think you're in the house of
pain with that. It's going
to be at that address for a
little bit... I do believe
that the ag trade ultimately
will come back but, right now,
it feels like the nat gas trade,
and I can only handle one of
these steamer trunks on my back
at a time.
EGLE - No, I'm still
going to go with
Frontline (FRO).
I'm not going to stick my neck
out for any of these others,
other than FRO. And,
again, I reiterate that the
pricing has come down for all of
shipping, because China just
absolutely just ordering
anything. I mean, it's
amazing; it's like China dropped
off the face of the earth!...
I have never seen anything like
it... They're not buying
anything, and it is just
amazing... it's like they've
gone underground...
they're invisible. And
that'swhy everything is
just falling apart in the
commodities. You
have to understand what I'm
saying here... China has
vanished. It has
vanished... The Shanghai
(Stock Index), down 55%...
I want to buy the Chinese
market, that's how low it is...
but these guys have just
vanished, and that, coupled with
the fact that a lot of hedge
funds were betting that China
was going to come back after the
Olympics... it was like a final
pass... they were getting
killed... China has
disappeared... and, until China
comes back, we are not going to
see any of the bulk shippers...
we are not going to see the
copper companies, we're not
going to see any of the aluminum
companies, we're not going to
see any of the steel companies
come back. And I don't
know when China's coming back.
It is amazing. They have
just disappeared! And,
until they come back, more pain
is ahead.
RHT - I liked when the
CEO was on... I thought
the CEO told a good tale...
nobody seemed to care at all.
That is somewhat unbelievable to
me. I had a lot of bears
tell me that the company is a
house of cards. I don't
think it is. Tech's
obviously in a bad way today.
I like RHT. I've got to
tell you though... down here,
isn't... I'll tell you
something... I've got to feel
like that maybe we've got a
decent trade coming in
Salesforce.com (CRM),
but I'm not sure yet. But
software has not been my
ideal... I have not pushed any
software companies, and I'm not
going to get behind them right
now.
CVS - I think
retail is part of a major trend,
that is to buy... of which I
will lump CVS in, although it's
not my favorite. Alright,
here's what's going on... We are
in what's known as an early
cycle rally... That's where the
banks rally, the housing
companies rally... even the auto
companies... did you see the bad
numbers from
Ford (F),
and that stock was up... and
retail... That's where we
are, in the early cycle.
For those of you who do not
understand it, I've got it in
Jim Cramer's Real Money...
but I have a chart which shows
you what works in this
particular moment... and it is
the early cycle, and the early
cycle is so on fire... It's
on page 115, and you can see
exactly what's happening.
It is so true to form, in this
book...in Real Money... So
I am telling you, we are in a
classic early-cycle rally.
It's going to continue, and CVS
is going to be part of it.
I want to stay in the early
cycle. I believe in the
early cycle. I believe in
the banks. I believe in
the bottom from July 15th... and
someone tell me... where are the
Chinese buyers? Because,
when they come back, we're going
to have quite a rally...

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.
