(see comments above for
each)
FRO - The Baltic
Freight Index has been going
down, down, down... that's what
they make every day. None
of these companies can cover
their current dividend with the
rates where they are but, if the
rates start coming back, these
are all buys.
Nordic American Tanker (NAT)
and FRO both work here. I
prefer FRO, at $48, than I do
NAT, at $31... but I've got to
tell you something, it's six or
a half dozen... and that guy,
Herbjorn (CEO), he's always
welcome on the show, even though
he's a little bit hard to hear,
even though he'd probably say
the same thing about me if I was
over there...
SHLD - Alright, let's
talk Sears... Everyone
criticizes Eddie Lampert
(CEO)... he didn't put any money
in the stores... Well,
Home Depot (HD)
and
Lowe's (LOW)
put fortunes into the stores and
what did it do for them?
Now, Eddie Lampert has a
rock-solid balance sheet and
everyone's worried about it.
Give me break, he's got a lot of
cash... and, here's some good
news... even though the
company... it's a tiny little
"largest" retailer after
Wal-Mart (WMT*)
and
Target (TGT)...
Okay, here's my thinking... The
government just changed the
rules. Lots of people have
been selling SHLD short.
Many were people in his stock...
Now, wait a second... when did
we see that?... You know
what that is? Isn't that
what happened in "The
Producers"?... Remember,
they put on that play and they
sold more than they had?... And
they went to jail... Now,
here's the deal... that's what's
been going on with SHLD....
they've been selling more than
there is. That game ended
last night. They've got
two more days to cover.
Let me tell you something... you
are sitting pretty being long
SHLD... and they had a decent
quarter. People are going
to have to cover, people are
going to have to buy...
Lampert's got your back...
PCU - I don't
understand how this copper
company can get all the way down
there but, then again, I never
thought that China would
suddenly vanish off the face of
the earth... I think that
you should buy PCU here on the
off chance that China eventually
becomes a buyer of copper again
... because this thing is so
darn cheap, it's ridiculous.
I cannot endorse selling PCU
right here. That would be
a mistake, for anyone with an
18-month philosophy toward life.
RF - I was negative on
RF for awhile, and then I turned
on all the regional banks... RF,
because they were able to buy
something from the FDIC... But,
let me go over which banks that
I like... I have not
recommended RF... It's the
Fortress Four, almost all of
which are now at their 52-week
high, by the way... It's
Wells Fargo (WFC),
it's
US Bancorp (USB),
it's
Bank of America (BAC),
it's
JPMorgan (JPM*),
which I own for
my charitable trust and, recently,
I added
BB & T Corp. (BBT),
which is just a few points off
its 52-week high... up 4
today... and, the other day,
when I welcomed Bob Steel, the
CEO of WB on... I recommended
that one... hey listen,
that was only up 50% today...
could that be a mistake?...
No...
WAG* - Don't give up.
I own it too. I started
buying for
my charitable trust, and what do
they do? They went and
tried to bid for Long's Drugs...
It ain't so special... I think
WAG* should let
CVS Caremark Corp. (CVS)
have it, and we should buy some
more WAG*. Buy, buy,
buy!...
AAPL - Alright, now
understand... I am on record as
saying that you should have sold
three-quarters of your position
when it got to $180... Then I
said buy another quarter back
when it got to $150. It is
right through to my next level,
so I have to tell you that I
have to buy it. I have
conviction that it should go
higher. I think AAPL is an
inexpensive stock based on
2010-11 numbers.
ING - What's the
dividend there right now?
Let's see what that yield is of
that sucker... stick with me
just a second... 8%?
I think that yield's... Oh
boy, everytime I say a yield's
safe, what happens?...
Let's put it this way, I'm
sticking with my Fortress...
I'm sticking with the
Bank of America (BAC), JPMorgan (JPM*),
Wells Fargo (WFC),
US Bancorp (USB),
Wachovia Corp. (WB)
and BB & T Corp. (BBT),
and I am not varying from that
list, because that list is red,
red, sizzling hot!

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.
