TCB |
11.59 |
TCF Financial Corporation
(TCB)
Jim: You know, this
has always been one of my absolute
favorite financials, but this has just
such a horrible moment for the
financials. I feel bad about this,
because it's always had a safe yield,
it's always been well-run... I say don't
buy, don't buy... I'm not going to say,
sell, sell, sell... but that is a really
well-run company, and it's right at
book, but who knows if you can trust
book value anymore. I'm going to take a
pass on it.

Seagate (STX)
Jim: You know
what?... Seagate has never been... never
been, since it was SGAT... I have not
been a friend of it... I like
Western Digital (WDC)
more... I still do. Ultimately, I like
Taiwan Semiconductor (TSM)
and I like Xilinx Inc. (XLNX)...
Those are the two inside of the PC that
I like and, otherwise, I'm not going to
endorse it... although I did have a
dream... I read it from "Word Up"
magazine... I'm not kidding... I woke up
in a sweat that
Intel (INTC)
had pre-announced to the upside, the
stock went up to $17, and I missed the
whole move. This is the real kind of
nightmare that I have... But, I woke up,
and it turned out that Intel was at $15,
and it wasn't a problem.

WAG* |
24.29 |
Walgreen Co. (WAG*)
Jim: I'm going to do
something I rarely do... but they report
(earnings) on Monday, and I'm going to
say that I want to see how that quarter
was, because there's a lot of turmoil in
this business. Somehow, I think that if
Rite Aid Corp. (RAD)
were somehow be able to be finally be
euthanized, you would be a buyer of
Walgreen Co. (WAG*).
WAG has been stuck at $23-26. Let's
listen to the quarter, and I will give
you a judgment on Tuesday's show.

15.13 |
Dr Pepper Snapple Group,
Inc. (DPS)
Jim: I don't like
it... I just recommended KO, because of
the dollar exposure. I'd rather do KO.
By the way, speaking of Cadbury, my
favorite candy company is
Hershey Co. (HSY),
which started moving up this week after
I recommended it, and I want people to
buy HSY... buy, buy, buy!... right here.

CBS |

CBS Corporation (CBS)
Jim: You know, I've
got to tell you... down here at $4... I
know the balance sheet is not great. I
know that Sumner Redstone is having some
personal financial problems. I don't
know. At $4, I just can't tell you to
stay away from it. It seems like an
interesting spec. It is "Speculation
Friday"... so maybe we just say, listen,
if you want to speculate on CBS at $4,
I'm not going to fight you. I will tell
you it's okay.
