Opening Segment 1
Title: |
'Bank Amateurs'
|
|
. . . .
. |
|
Featured Stock(s): |
General discussion about
the financial stocks,
given today's drastic
decline in
Bear Stearns (BSC),
after it was sold to
JPMorgan Chase & Co (JPM),
at the fire sale price of
just $2 per share.
Sell the bank stocks.
See Opening Segment 2,
below...
|
|
|
After this segment, you
can see Jim's Lightning
Round picks
here... |
NOTE: Jim had
a general discussion about
the financial stocks - and
that he does not think
that they, as a group, can
be trusted now...
Consider them sells!
. . . .
.
The Bottom Line!:
The financials cannot be
trusted. Other than
JPMorgan Chase & Co (JPM),
I don't expect any
takeovers in this group.
They're all going to be
takeunders... If you
haven't sold the bank
stocks already... well,
maybe you get a little
lift tomorrow, and then
what are you waiting
for?...

Segment stock picks

After this segment, you
can see Jim's Lightning
Round picks
here... |
NOTE:
Jim again stressed
the importance of
recognizing that
the bank stocks
and financials are
not the place to
speculate and that
the new "bank
stocks" are the
ones in the "real
economy" where
solid revenues and
profits are being
shown, in the
recession-resistant
durable goods
stocks, such as
those shown
below...
. . . .
.
The Bottom Line!:
After this selloff, you
want to pick among the
rubble for the real
banks... the companies
that have a lot of money
and are either recession
resistant, or are in
industries that are
growing strong, despite
the recession, and because
of the weak dollar.
Don't look to the banks
and the financials and,
please, let's hope that
the Federal Reserve
realizes that it's okay to
bail, and they start
bailing, while you and I
go to the first national
bank of Pepsi (PEP)...
(among others - listed
above)... In
Merck (MRK)
I trust...

opinion on stocks, as we
think it is indicated by his

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. |
