(see comments above for

T - We're going to
have to wait... we're going to
get paid the dividend... until
we get the business cycle
started again because, right
now, both
Verizon
(VZ)
and T are not doing that well.
They pay a good dividend.
Sometimes we have to look
through the valley, while we get
the dividend, and that's the
case with T. I wish I
could tell you they were doing
gangbusters, but they're not.
But that dividend will put you
through.
EMC - EMC is a
technology stock that... and
this is a quarter that's being
very, let's say, indifferent...
No, let's be honest... there are
not a lot of orders coming in
right now for tech. I
think, if you get a rally on
Monday for EMC, I want you to
sell into it... sell, sell,
sell! I don't trust tech
during the month of September.
It has been a bad month. I
usually see good things.
I'm making my calls. I
don't hear good things for tech.
AXP - I'm torn about
AXP, because I like the brand
name. It just had a very
big run. It's a financial.
The problem is this... they've
gotten into a lot of lending
that I don't like. I think
that AXP still has some big, big
chargeoffs to take, and I am not
going to recommend the stock
here... don't buy, don't buy...
and, plus, the company is really
quiet. It never says
anything. I don't like the
communication we're getting from
them.
ABX - Okay... I have
always felt that it is good to
have a stock that is counter to
everything else... a gold stock
is a good place. We liked
Yamana Gold Inc.
(AUY).
I sold that for
my charitable trust at $14-15.
I'm actually looking to buy it
back at $6-7. I think ABX
is good position to have on your
sheets, meaning it's a nice
balance of a diversified
portfolio. Up $3, though,
I always do some selling.
EXC - This was just a
ridiculous selloff. Now,
given the fact that
Constellation - which is really
not a great company - got a big
from
Warren Buffett,
I see no reason to sell EXC.
I think EXC has good new plants.
And oil is not going to go to
$80, okay... it's not. I
think you've got a good one
there.
EP* - I saw that stock
today below $15. It was at
$13 this morning... And I
said, you know, I sold that
thing at $18-19 for
my charitable trust. And I
said, this is crazy... what is
that stock doing down there?
I know the quarter wasn't that
good. Natural gas is
$7.50... but that stock is a
buy. Do not pay more than
$17 for it, because the previous
quarter was not good. But
that stock's too cheap down
here.
NUE - You know what?
Here's the problem with NUE...
It's a big, cyclical company,
and it's waiting for steel to
tighten up, and that means that
China has to be buying. I
think that, to sell NUE now,
would be a big mistake. I
think you've got a couple of
days that were good.
However, the stock was up $5
today. It was way, way
down. It is too cheap, and
NUE is my favorite steel
company, so let's hold onto it.
NCC - Nat City, I'm a
seller of. You can sell it
right into the short squeeze
that Christopher Cox (SEC
chairman) gave us. I think
that there is core value there,
but I've got to tell you
something... you really need a
major, major resolution mortgage
trust... sell, sell, sell...
and, if you do not get it, that
stock is at the cusp. I do
not want to recommend that
stock. I think you sell it
into the strength on Monday.
That is not one of my Fortress
banks.
NLY - No, that is one
that I screwed up on, and it
actually even hurts to think
about it and talk about it.
This is a company that buys
agency bonds and does a little
arbitrage with leverage, and I'm not
a buyer. Don't buy, don't
buy... And I self-emulated
on it...
SD - Oh man, this
stock just got killed... You
know what? We're going to
recommend this stock, because
oil and gas... natural gas is
not going to go through $7, if
it didn't go through $7 in this
selloff... I think
you're safe with that one...
buy, buy, buy! If it goes
back to $30, we're going to sell
it... but I want to own SD.
I want to stick with most
stocks, but 20% of your
portfolio needs to be sold,
sold, sold on Monday... right
into the strength.
Price target: $30.00

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.
