Jim Cramer's Mad Money Stock Recap May 20th

Parker-Hannifin (PH), Eaton (ETN), First Solar (FSLR), Emerson (EMR)
In a volatile market, Cramer suggests sticking with bullish themes that have a future. Instead of investing in a company that wants to perfect the next cool gadget, Cramer once again touted new tech stocks which can solve real problems such as energy, food, water, the environment, poverty, fighting terrorism, disease and education. PH, ETN, FSLR and EMR are developing new technologies to tackle global challenges. Cramer singled out PH for its generous, safe dividend.
Navistar International (NAVZ), Cummins (CMI)
Navistar, which has 60% market share of school buses and trucks is Cramer's favorite in the industry after CMI. NAVZ is developing hybrid diesel engines which can reduce fuel costs by 9-13% and its military division could earn $2 billion. The biggest catalyst is the company's relisting on the New York Stock Exchange. NAVZ was delisted a few years ago after facing accounting problems but should return to the exchange any week now. Cramer thinks this story is similar to Terex's which saw a doubling of its share price after cleaning up its accounting problems. Cramer predicts NAVZ, which trades at a mere 7.7 times forward earnings will jump to $104, a 51% bounce.

Jim Cramer's Stop Trading May 14h

Buy Caterpillar (CAT), Jim Cramer said on CNBC's "Stop Trading!" segment Wednesday.
On news of an earthquake that has cost a great deal of damage and as many as 15,000 lives, Cramer spoke of the "rebuild in China," which he said was an equivalent of Hurricane Katrina in terms of infrastructure buildout. He pointed viewers to Caterpillar and Terex (TRX) as plays on the news. He also recommended Cummins (CMI). "They're all headed up ... because of the rebuild," he said.
Cramer said today's rally has a lot to do with bullish action from mortgage insurer Freddie Mac (FRE). "They have gotten rid of the systemic risk," he said. He called Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae (FNM) the "last of the black holes" for the financial crunch.
Cramer said Freddie is getting a lot of business, which he thinks may actually offset the company's losses. He said bears don't believe that's the case, but he pointed out that Freddie is a well-run company. Fannie is not as good, he said.
In the consumer discretionary space, Cramer said he had thought "the buyers would just call it quits" after the government's stimulus checks came in. He revised his forecast, saying maybe earnings from Kohl's (KSS) tomorrow will be the time to sell.
He expressed his surprise at the continued rise of some retailers. "Certainly we know that Costco (COST) is better than we thought. ... TJX (TJX) was a little disappointing, and look -- it goes up." He pointed out that Wal-Mart (WMT) stock has traded back to where it was before reporting earnings.
"A lot of people feel that the worst is over," Cramer said. He pointed out that the Fed called victory when inflation numbers came in better than expected.
Cramer also said that the year of wind power may arrive this year, not next year as he had previously predicted. He pointed out bullish action in Fluor (FLR) and First Solar (FSLR) as evidence of alternative energy stories.
He also said that Research In Motion (RIMM), Apple (AAPL) and MasterCard (MA) are offering leadership in the economy.
On the housing crisis, Cramer said that Toll Brothers (TOL) CEO Bob Toll was "negative negative negative" when the two spoke on last night's "Mad Money" TV show. He predicted that the housing problem in Florida would be much better in 18 months.

Jim Cramer's Mad Money Stock Recap Feb. 13th

Exxon (XOM), Conco-Phillips (COP), Schlumberger (SLB), Ultra Petroleum (UPL), Apache (APA), Anadarko (APC), XTO Energy (XTO), Arch Coal (ACI), Peabody Energy (BTU), First Solar (FSLR), Applied Materials (AMAT), MEMC Electronics (WFR), Mosaic (MOS), Deere (DE), CSX (CSX), Chicago Bridge and Iron (CBI), Jacobs Engineering (JEC), Shaw Group (SGR)
Contrary to popular belief, retail did not cause the rally in the Dow and the Nasdaq, but the culprit was oil, which is the umbrella that makes everything work. Not only did oil stocks like XOM, COP and SLB do well, but Cramer says oil will fuel other stocks the energy sector such as UPL, APA, XTO, ACI and BTU, as well as alternative energy plays FSLR (which reported a better-than-expected quarter and historically fabulous upside guidance), AMAT and WFR. Cramer considers ag stocks as members of the energy sector, given the development of ethanol, and would look at MOS, DE. He added rail such as CSX, and infrastructure, CBI, JEC and SGR will also rise with the oil umbrella.
Conviction Stock: FMC Corp (FMC)
A rally one day may spell a down day the next, and it is hard to know what a stock is really worth in this mad market, said Cramer. He was looking for a conviction stock which could give a little bit of certainty about what it was worth, and came up with FMC, a soda ash company in an underexposed sector which is currently enjoying a silent bull market. Soda ash is used to make glass, brick, water softener and most importantly, agricultural chemicals. Cramer says he feels certain that FMC will reach $70, a 30% upside.

CNBC's Street Signs Recap Nov. 9th

Erin Burnett hosted. Melissa Lee of CNBC says the financial and tech sectors are down for the third day in a row. IBM and Hewlett Packard are among the top losses. Jeff Auxier, of Auxier Focus Inv. says volatility is normal an healthy because it takes out investors' egos. He says it is a great time to invest if you can be patient. Zimmer Holdings and Telef de Mexico are his top picks for the day. Next, David Malpass of Bear Sterns comments on the drowning dollar. He says the rest of the world is getting richer much quicker than our economy is growing right now. He says we have a small business economy with growth based in innovation, and with time we can improve our weak dollar situation. UPS is set to raise shipping rates by 5% by the beginning of 2008. Julia Boorstin of CNBC reports on the Writers Guild of America Strike on day 5. She says there is an upside for investors in the way of movie rentals and DVD mail order such as NetFlix. The logic behind this is the lack of new content and material for daily television, resulting in a consumer increase in theatre and rental establishments. Next topic was the growing oil prices. Crude Oil, at $96/barrel has obviously been a main concern of many consumers and investors. Bruno Stanziale of Bank of America says that ultimately, it is not possible that we will hit $100 a barrel before 2008. He says the oil prices are due to a lack of demand, as well as a change in market participation. Next, NovaGold of Alaska, announces deal with Barrick Gold to begin Donlin Creek Project. They will be working on projects in Alaska and Western Canada. They will mine gold copper and silver, and jointly owns or partnerships with Rio Tinto and Barrick Gold. Stop trading with Jim Cramer was next. ShawGroup (SGR), Foster Wheeler (FWLT), First Solar (FSLR), and MEMC Electronics (WFR) are his picks for the day.

Jim Cramer's Mad Money Stock Recap Nov. 6th

On Tuesday’s show, Cramer focused on green stocks that are good investments. Cramer reviewed his green picks from back in April to see how they had done since then.
Shaw Group (SGR): It is up 143% from about $30 to $74 since April.
Foster-Wheeler (FWLT): It is up 99% since April and had great earnings last quarter.
BorgWarner (BWA): It is up 38% since April, and Cramer thinks it will go higher because it has an increasing backlog.
OM Group (OMG): This is the only stock that is down since April, falling 5%. Cramer thinks the stock has started to bounce back from its lows already.
First Solar (FSLR): The stock has climbed 171% and Cramer is still bullish, but wants you to wait until after it reports earnings on Wednesday before buying more.
Fuel Tech (FTEK): This stock is up 35%, but guided down after reporting earnings Tuesday morning.
MEMC (WFR): This stock is up 20% since April and Cramer thinks the company will grow 52% over the next two years.
Tatra Tech (TTI): It is up 14% since April, and Cramer thinks it will keep going up slowly but steadily.
Cramer thinks every one of these stocks will go higher, and thinks that going green is good for business.
Cramer then went to the phone lines. The first caller asked about Zoltek (ZOLT), and Cramer said that although he recommended this stock a while ago he pulled out because he thought he was getting greedy. He now thinks this stock will keep going up. The second caller asked about BP (BP), and Cramer doesn’t think you can own this company because of its green initiatives. The next caller asked about SunPower (SPWR) and Cypress (CY), and Cramer said that Cypress is safer, but he likes both stocks.
The CEO of Wells Fargo (WFC) was on the show to talk about their alternative energy investments and positions, as well as the prospects. Cramer said this is the only banking stock he wants you to buy.
“Am I Diversified?”
The first email asked about UBS (UBS), and Cramer said that he has messed up with every financial pick he had made recently, and thinks you should wait until the stock hits $45 before you buy. The next email asked about Oceaneering International (OII), and Cramer said he didn't like the most recent earnings call. The next email asked if the recent investment in Tesoro (TSO) by Kirk Keorkian's was a bet that oil will drop, and Cramer said that could be right, but that TSO could drop if oil prices decline. The final email asked about lululemon (LULU), and Cramer said he wants nothing to do with the stock since it has gone up so much.

Jim Cramer's Mad Money Stock Recap Oct. 3rd

Barrick Gold (ABX), Cramer: "the best gold stock to buy right now." Gold is breaking out because of the weak dollar, lower short-term rates and worries about inflation. Cramer prefers Barrick over other gold companies, because they have a lot of gold reserves and are "totally prepared for higher gold prices." The next call was about Freeport McMoran (FCX). Cramer thinks it will keep going up to $120.
Overlooked IPO's:
AthenaHealth (ATH). Cramer likes its subscription revenue and growth prospects. Athenahealth has 42% growth. He then took some more phone calls.
A caller asked about LDK Solar (LDK); Cramer doesn't like because he thinks there is a big sell off in China stocks coming. He also likes First Solar (FSLR) better.
Another caller asked about Blackstone (BX). Cramer thinks the stock has bottomed out and that there is a short term trading opportunity here.
Am I diversified?
First caller named the following five stocks: SAP (SAP), Annaly Capital Management (NLY), Nvidia (NVDA), BEA Systems (BEAS) and Honeywell (HON). Cramer said too many tech stocks. He said to keep BEA and consider buying a health care stock.
Second caller had Apple (AAPL), Trimble (TRMB), Xoma (XOMA), Freeport-McMoRan (FCX) and Goldman Sachs (GS). He suggested selling Trimble and, again, picking up a health care cost-container like Hologic.
The last player's five picks: Monsanto (MON), PepsiCo (PEP) Research In Motion (RIMM), U.S. Steel (X) and Exxon Mobil (XOM). Cramer blessed the portfolio as diversified.
Mad Mail: Responding to an email, Cramer called Walgreen (WAG) "still too expensive," and said he likes the cheaper CVS (CVS), which he owns for his charitable trust, better. He said, "Stay away from Walgreen."
Sudden Death: Cramer was bullish on Flotek Industries (FTK), Celgene (CELG) and Crocs (CROX).

Jim Cramer's Mad Money Stock Recap Sept. 21st

Lundin Mining (LMC): Cramer began Friday's show by talking about LMC. The mining company extracts zinc, copper, nickel and lead, which Cramer thinks are near bottoms in price. He also thinks that the stock could be bought out for $15 per share. Although the company has had its ups and downs, Lundin now deserves "two thumbs up."
Horsehead Holdings (ZINC): Next, Cramer talked about ZINC; a zinc refiner that recently went public. Cramer feels that no one knows about the stock and that it should increase since many other metal stocks have gone up in price recently. He thinks this is another buyout target in the future. He said, "If Horsehead reaches $23, walk away."
The Mad Money Game Plan: Next week focused on Cramer's belief that high oil and a weak dollar are good for the market, contrary to popular belief. The stocks he specifically mentioned were Core Labs, (CLB), FMC Tech (FTI), and First Solar (FSLR).
Mad Mail: Cramer read an email that was very harsh, pointing out some of the stocks Cramer likes that have not done well recently. Cramer stated that he is willing to admit his mistakes. "My losses kill me," he said, especially since he owns a lot of these stocks for his charitable trust; such as Goldman Sachs (GS), NYSE Euronext (NYX), and Sears (SHLD).
