Full Company Name & Jim's Comments:

DE*

41.99

Mad Mail question:

Deere
(DE*)

Q:    I come from a farming family. American farmers tend to use their credit in the winter season, after harvest, to buy machinery. Since Deere machinery is so expensive, do you think DE can go lower? I can't see many planters or combines being bought this year if there's no credit access. Like you, I like the company, but I don't like the market situation.

Jim:    I own it for my charitable trust... I tried to buy some more. I was restricted, because I mentioned it on the show. Once the commercial paper origination was freed up by the Federal Reserve, that was good for Deere. This new bank news is good for Deere. I think DE should be bought here.

HEI

35.09

Mad Mail question:

HEICO Corp.
(HEI)

Q:    What do you think of HEICO (HEI)?

Jim:    That's aerospace and defense. Not a great combination under an Obama presidency, or a Boeing (BA) strike.
