Mad Mail question:

General question...


Q:    Jim,
My father and I have been watching you since your days with Kudlow. We love the show, love the books, and appreciate what you do everyday. I’m a Marine who just finished a 13-month deployment in Iraq. Even when things were rough, discussing your show with my father was always something that made the difficult phone calls easier. Thanks for teaching us the game and we are looking forward to show number 2,000.
John in California

Jim:    Thank you John, I have to recommend that “
Joker One” book that I had last night with Donovan… John a lot of people that I know watch the show and talk about it with their parents… the first guy who told me that was Mike Barnacle, and it is a terrific thing… Mike Barnacle, you always see on MSNBC with Morning Joe… and I have got to tell you that I am thrilled when I hear this… because all of us need to communicate with our parents more… and if we can do it over sports, this show, whatever… call your parents will you… I call my Dad.

Mad Mail question:

General question...


Q:    Hi Jim,
Your discussion about breadth on the OSU show really hit home with me. I have been using the weekly breadth of
ActionAlertsPlus.com (that is my newsletter, my paid newsletter on TheStreet.com where I am chairman) as bottom turn around signal. You often compare the sector waiting’s of the portfolio to the S&P, it is your benchmark and you consistently beat it. There was a marked change in March. Even though losers still outnumbered gainers the ratio improved dramatically. Is my thinking lame or am I on to something? Is this a good tell for a healthy market?
Thank you, Nick in New Jersey

Jim:    Nick, not only is it not lame but you have hit upon I think one of the most important indicators that there is… and I want you to stick with it… and keep developing other things that give you the confidence to buy or to sell… and that is a great one to look at.

Mad Mail question:

McDonald's (MCD*)
Wal-Mart (WMT*)


Q:    Thanks for setting the backdrop for trading. It has helped me make some fundamentally and technically strong picks. I bought
McDonald's (MCD*) and Wal-Mart (WMT*) just before their moving averages went through the floor. What kind of time frame do you think these stocks could come back in?
Thanks, Cara

Jim:    I own Wal-Mart for
ActionAlertsPlus.com, I do not expect it to do well right now because it is a defensive stock… same thing with McDonald’s… here is the way that you look at Wal-Mart and McDonald’s… these are classic stocks that will do well over time… I do not think that you should think day to day… just own them and keep watching the show… I will update you on them constantly… because I think the managements of those two companies are fabulous.
