Full Company Name & Jim's Comments:

AUY

8.34

Yamana Gold Inc. (AUY)

Q:     I am worried about my Yamana Gold?...

Jim:  
Well, I have got to tell you Yamana doesn’t surface anymore on my list that I want to own.. if you want a good stable cash flow, steadily improving with the possibility of a good dividend that is going to be Agnico-Eagle (AEM)… and if you want the cheapest in terms of fining costs that is going to be EGO… which is Eldorado Gold Corp. (EGO)… I would buy those over AUY… I would sell Yamana, and buy either of mine.

Full Company Name & Jim's Comments:

AVAV

21.14

AeroVironment, Inc. (AVAV)

Q:     I was wondering about AeroVironment?...

Jim:  
No, man... we managed to get out of that one and I am absolutely thrilled that we did… and it remains in bear tones… why did we get out of it… you know what, we didn’t want to be greedy…we thought we should ring the register… sometimes that is the best way… it is better to be lucky than good.

X

19.10

United States Steel Corp. (X)

Q:     My question is about U.S. Steel...   It has a dividend of $1.20 and a 6% yield, how do you feel about US Steel?...

Jim:  
Okay, here is what happened… Let me tell you exactly what happened today… and it is a little bit interesting… there was a call… let me see if I can get the firm… I believe it was JP Morgan, JP Morgan indeed told you today that they believe that U.S. Steel could violate its debt covenants… that freaked everybody out because it means that the bond bullies are going to take over for the common stock… I say wait a second, John Sirna come on the show and tell us JP Morgan is wrong… because U.S. Steel has now fallen from $193 all the way down to the teens… that is as bad as it did in the Great Depression for heavens sake… I think that Sirna should be heard from before I back that JP Morgan call… John Sirna come on the show.

 

MOS

43.21

Mosaic (MOS)

Q:     We have got The Mosaic Company (MOS)?...

Jim:  
No, no, no…. Listen to me partner… we have got TNH, Terra Nitrogen Company, L.P. (TNH)... that is the only one that I have been recommending… the others have all fallen by the wayside… ours continues to go higher… TNH is my play for you.

TNH

126.53

Terra Nitrogen Company, L.P. (TNH)

See MOS comments above for:
TNH


NTCT

9.00

NetScout Systems Inc. (NTCT)

Q:     What is with Netscout Systems(NTCT)?   They have had some solid reports this year and they bought a competitor but they are down 30% today...

Jim:  
Yeah, you know what… I think this is the time not to speculate in spec… not when we have Taiwan Semiconductor (TSM) at the low end and I think can go up… and Hewlett-Packard (HPQ*), an ActionAlertsPlus.com name, that has been absolutely crushed and I think unfairly… both of them are better than Netscout… I want to buy Taiwan Semi… I want to buy Hewlett Packard… I want to sell Netscout.

TSM

8.86

Taiwan Semiconductor (TSM)

See NTCT comments above for:
TSM


HPQ*
