Full Company
Name/Comments
(see comments above for
each)
DNR - Alright, DNR is
another one of these incredible
oil and gas companies that
everyone has already given up
on. We are only sticking
with the highest quality right
now. I do like the company
but the group is for sale...
If we do not get hurricane
damage this weekend, that stock
is going to go down.
I say don't buy...
USU - Uranium?
No, I haven't liked that.
I think that the uranium plays
have not been good, including
that one. And, even at $5,
I still do not want to own it.
That is a spent fuel nuclear
reactor thing. They take
the production fuel... I'm
not there, I don't like it, too
speculative...
SPWR - I like SPWR,
but I like
First Solar (FSLR)
more. Understand, as oil
goes down, no one is going to
buy these stocks... no one.
We've got to wait until oil hits
$90, before we refresh and
reload and buy anything solar...
because we bought some higher.
Now we bought some lower...
FSLR, we recommended at $50.
I haven't gotten off the stock.
I've owned it all the way
round-trip. It's still up
considerably, and I'm not a
seller of FSLR.
OSK - This stock is
too low to sell. At $13,
OSK... I want to own that stock.
That stock has been polaxxed,
mutilated, spindled... and it's
just not that bad. They've
got military trucks. Under
McCain, that stock probably gets
a nice pop. Let's hold it
for if McCain wins.
MI - MI is a
speculative institution now.
It was always one of the class
of the field. I think you
will be fine, but I don't want
to ever... Look, I've only
been recommending four banks,
plus BBT and then, earlier this
week, I started recommending WB
on weakness. MI is not
included in my group of stocks
of banking stocks that I'm
recommending. And, if I'm
not recommending it, I'm not in
favor of it.
DE* - I was kicking
myself all week that I didn't
pull the trigger and buy
some DE* for
my charitable trust... when
it was under $60. That was
a mistake. I think DE* can
bounce here. This is a
company that has orders for
years. Its biggest cost is
steel, which is going down.
I don't like ethanol, but I have
to admit that renewable fuels
are going to keep a big
underneath for all agriculture,
so I like DE* at $62 to $63...
HPQ* - I totally agree
with you. Mark Hurd (CEO)
is doing a fabulous job. I
like it more than
Dell Inc. (DELL).
Remember,
IBM (IBM)
said this week that there's not
an order problem. I think
HPQ* is best-in-show. I
don't like a lot of
technologies, but that's one I
do.
MHS - It's really...
as we have said repeatedly...
one of the great recession
stocks, because they do...
they have their own proprietary
database... they do mail-order
prescriptions... This is a
company that saves companies
money... They're always
welcome on this show. A
great earnings model. I do
worry about competition, but I
think they can beat the
competition. They are
really well-run.
HSY - You know, HSY is
very tough, because I like the
food group very much. I
compare HSY to
Campbell Soup Co. (CPB).
CPB is a better company, but HSY
has had a nice run. In a
slowdown, they all go up.
I like
Cadbury Schweppes plc (CBY)
more than HSY too. I am
going to say "don't buy" after
this spike up. Let it come
in. Congratulations to
Campbell's on a great quarter.
MCD* - Goldman is a
great firm... a lot of these
guys have recommended MCD*
dramatically lower. The
stock had a huge move.
They don't want to give back
that move. I never, ever
mind an analyst, who has made
you a lot of money, taking
something off the table because
bulls make money, pigs make
money and hogs get slaughtered.
I think MCD* needs to pull back,
under $60, before I want to
pull the trigger.
Jim Skinner (CEO) has done such
an unbelievable job. He's
the third great CEO in a row.
MCD* should make the number.
Obviously, it's not a
beneficiary of a strong dollar
but, I think if it goes below
$60, I want you to get right
back in it.
DYN - DYN is too hard.
Don't buy, don't buy... You
don't know what their natural
gas position is. We have
to have DYN on (the show), in
order to figure out what they're
current position is. I
like the power generation
business, but we need more
information from DYN, and I
always welcome DYN on the show.
AYE - Just because
they put through that (price)
increase doesn't mean that they
don't have to eat some of the
costs themselves. I have
been recommending
Consolidated Edison Inc.
(ED)...
That's one I am confident can
generate the power in what
actually is a growth area and
still make money. I say
ix-nay on the AYE... don't buy,
don't buy... and buy ED, even up
here. Stay with ED.

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.
