KGC |
17.41 |
Kinross Gold Corp. (KGC)
Q: I
bought Kinross Gold about a year and a
half ago when you recommended it, at the
time you thought it might be subject to
a buy out.
Jim: Well, Kinross is
just a good gold play… but we want to
have the lowest cost gold plays… that is
going to send us to
Agnico-Eagle Mines Ltd. (AEM)…
I don’t mind Kinross and I even
recommend it because I like gold as part
of any portfolio… but I would rather see
you in Agnico Eagle… I am not predicting
any takeovers in this sector.

ATHN |
37.20 |
Athenahealth, Inc. (ATHN)
Q: I
wanted to get your take on ATHN?
Jim: Yeah, we have liked
Athena Healthcare… Why have we liked
it?… We like it because it is record
spilling… it reminds me of
Allscripts Healthcare
Solutions Inc. (MDRX)…
anything that keeps the price of
healthcare down…
MedcoHealth Solutions Inc.
(MHS)…
all these same root… these are the
companies that will save the government
money… we are a cash strapped government
unlike China… and we need all the money
we can get and save… and Athena is part
of that situation… Athena very
attractive if I remember my bullfinch.

Wal-Mart (WMT*)
Q: I have
a 10 year old son, I was thinking of
investing in stocks for him, what do you
think about Wal-Mart?
Jim: I think you are
buying it right… you are buying it down…
let’s see down 16 straight points… I
have been itching to buy some more for
my charitable trust… the way my
rules my work if I mention it I have to
wait five days… I think this is a great
level… understand, pull the trigger… I
expect it to close at $45 at options
week… it has got a lot of pressure… but
Wal-Mart was up today… and I really… I
mean it was up at one point today… and
then it traded down near the end of the
day…I like Wal-Mart very much… I think
it traded even most of the day.

Banco Bilbao Vizcaya
Argentaria (BBV)
Q: I
would like to know, a regional bank
play, BBV?
Jim: I don’t need to go
over to Europe to lose money in banks… I
could lose a lot of money right here… I
am not recommending that bank… I am not
recommending any bank stock… hey, you
want a bank stock… go buy
Goldman Sachs (GS*)…
at least they have got a business model.

GMCR |

Green Mountain Coffee
Roasters (GMCR)
Q: My
question is about GMCR - Green Mountain
coffee roasters?
Jim: I think you are
being greedy… bulls make money, bears
make money, hogs get slaughtered… that
is a nice run… come on it is just
coffee… by the way, I had a bad
Starbucks experience today… the guy gave
me the wrong coffee… the line was really
long… he was totally disorganized… and
it made me realize what Danny Myers said
on Monday… they ain’t coming back
anytime soon… plus I felt very gauche… I
felt like when I walked around with a
Starbucks cup… it felt like I was John
Thain… hey listen I am John Thain, I am
drinking Starbucks.. and you know that
John Thain is just become a curse word,
along with Feld… I did not feel like I
was Madoff… because then I would have
stolen the Starbucks… oh, allegedly.

Visa Inc. (V)
Q: Visa,
Jim?...
Jim: Visa just reported…
it looks like a good quarter… I don’t
want to jump up and down about it
because my knee is sore… but it does
look like a really good idea to buy some
Visa… let’s wait until it comes in…
don’t get too aggressive… as soon as you
get too aggressive in this market… you
get your head blown off… and the
Lightning Round is over.
