RIMM - Alright, a
one-year horizon (i.e., not
having to sell for at least a
year), you're fine... Now
look... I've round-tripped
RIMM. I've liked it for
three years. I didn't take
it off. It's like
Apple (AAPL).
I always said hold onto some
AAPL. AAPL and RIMM have
just turned into disasters as
stocks, even as the companies
are doing well. You could
say, Jim, you had no call on
RIMM... you don't even have a
right to talk about RIMM.
But my feeling on RIMM is that
the Blackberry's a real product
and that stock has come down a
lot. Now, I'm not going to
run tail down here. That
doesn't make sense.
HEK - Oh man, I've got
to throw the flag. Man,
that's unsportsmanlike.
I've got to tell you... HEK is a
"blank check" company.
There is no real company.
Just a group of guys who got
together... I don't
think... no, I'm not going there
at all... sell, sell, sell!...
I am selling HEK. It's
just a "blank check" company.
We don't even know... it's a
development stage company in a
market that is absolutely a
horrible market. We don't
go development.
V - You know, Visa's
is kind of an interesting story
right here, because I always
tell people, it is a play on
people going from paper to
plastic. Last week, I told
people not to own
American Express (AXP),
but I still like Visa. I
don't like
Mastercard
(MA)
as much as Visa. It looks
like the liquidation might be
over there. Everyday, some
moron hedge fund sells MA.
Today it was up. Maybe
it's finally over... the
liquidation of MA. I still
prefer Visa.
AMED - This is a very
controversial stock. It's
a Medicare-certified home health
agency that some people like,
some people hate... It is
too difficult for me.
Frankly, it is a total
battleground stock. I am
going to tell you that people I
really like, like Cheryl
Scolnick at CRT Capital, say
stay away... I don't like
to be caught in a crossfire.
It is too darn hard.
Sometimes you have to say, hey,
I surrender, it's too hard.
DEO - I like DEO.
It now yields 5%. People
are thinking that high-end
liquor sales are going to be
bad. I think that high-end
liquor sales two years from now
are going to be good. I
think DEO... I was looking at
this for
my charitable trust...
When that hit a 5% yield, I
said, let's break open the
homework.
DEO... That's my kind of
stock right here. I don't
think the near term is good, but
that company has high-end
liquors... the Johnny Walker
Red, Black, Green, Blue...
whatever. That company is
for me. I want to start
looking at it and doing the
homework. I think it may
be right to
pull the trigger
on. I say stick with DEO,
if you own it!

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.
