After this
segment, you can
see Jim's Opening
Segment picks
here...
|
On
CIENA Corp. (CIEN)...
JJC: Well, I
love Gary (Smith, CEO)...
I've loved him for a long time.
He gave you a great opportunity to
sell the stock... Why
sell the stock? Because
technology is falling... The
spending for technology is
declining rather dramatically this
quarter. I think he's
great. I've had him on my
show when the stock was much, much
lower. He's really terrific
but, in this environment, you
can't have a tech stock have a
really big run. You just
can't. All I'm saying,
exactly, is that you sell it.
You probably buy it back on Monday
or Tuesday, depending upon if you
really love the thing.
But it's like, I like
Nokia (NOK),
but I'm not going to come on here
and tell you that I like NOK...
because I'm trying to preserve
capital. I think this is the
preservation of capital.
CIEN's up. I think that's a
great opportunity to lighten up,
and pick something else that may
be down huge. I think he's
right... the spending could
be okay there but remember, it's
in a sector that no one wants to
be in during the month of March.
. . .
. .
On
Fannie Mae (FNM)
and
Freddie Mac (FRE)...
JJC: Do you want
a rally? Okay... get
the Treasury Secretary, Hank
Paulson, to come on your show...
rather than "the fundamentals are
sound" from President Bush...
rather than all the things I hear
from congress... Just
get him to come on your show, and
to say the following thing...
"Agency paper... treasury paper...
that is
Fannie Mae (FNM)
and
Freddie Mac (FRE)...
the guarantee is more than just
implicit"... If he
said that, we'd have a rally to
last all times, and it would be
the end of this... The Fed
would not have to cut rates and,
if the Fed would be able to go in,
and buy triple-A mortgages, which
I believe they can... the Fed
would not have to cut rates
anymore. Instead, what
they're doing... we're going
to have a major bank failure...
They've said nothing, which is
just making people frightened and
scared... It would take
nothing for Paulson to come out
and say, "You don't need to worry
about
Fannie Mae (FNM)
and
Freddie Mac (FRE),
from the day we created these
organizations until now"...
But no, they say nothing.
They're just really quiet... and
that is just killing people...

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. |
