Jim Cramer's Mad Money Stock Recap Oct. 25th

Today's show started with Cramer putting on a straitjacket because the market is driving him crazy with all the wild swings going on in the major indexes. Psychiatric Solutions (PSYS) was his first recommendation of the day. It is the largest mental health service provider in the US. Cramer thinks that this stock is safe from all the problems in the market, and that it has a solid base and potential for growth. He is bullish on the stock and thinks that it could be worth up to $60.
Cramer then took some phone calls. The first caller asked for some good diabetes plays, and Cramer gave her Nastech Pharmaceutical (NSTK) and Novo Nordisk (NVO). The next caller asked about Synta Pharmaceuticals (SNTA), and Cramer said he needs to do his homework on it.
Cramer's most recent pick from "Microtrends" was Gamestop (GME) because the book says that the average video game player is now 33 years old, meaning that gamers have more money to spend on games and consoles since they are adults. Cramer also likes that the company has expanded outside the US. The stock has pulled back recently, so Cramer thinks the stock is a buy now, and that it could go up to $57.
"Sell Block." Cramer started by stating that Align Technology (ALGN) was one of his worst calls of the year since they guided earnings lower after this quarter. The next stock is Hansen Medical (HNSN), and recommends you sell so you can lock in a quick $11 gain since he recommended it, plus Intuitive Surgical (ISRG) is selling its share of the company. He also asked people to sell Lululemon (LULU) and Research in Motion (RIMM).
Cramer's final trade was Celgene (CELG), and he had the COO of the company on the show to talk about the upcoming prospects for the company's products. It is down, but Cramer still likes it.
he then talked about Intuitive Surgical (ISRG) and had CEO Lonnie Smith on the phone. They talked about the company's main product, the da Vinci surgical machine. Cramer thinks the stock is going much higher.
Sudden Death. Denbury Resources (DNR), which Cramer is bullish on. The next stock was Charming Shoppes (CHRS), which Cramer is bearish on. The next stock was LifeCell (LIFC), which Cramer likes. The next stock was Quintana Maritime (QMAR), which Cramer likes, along with Diana Shipping (DSX). The last stock was Delta Air (DAL), and Cramer said that he likes United (UAUA) better.

Jim Cramer's Mad Money Stock Recap Oct. 10th

Google (GOOG): Today's show started with Cramer talking about Google. He talked about all the Google non-believers, and then talked about the reasons that he thinks the stock will keep going higher. He has set his price target at $750, and believes it's not too late to get into the stock right now. He thinks it is a great company and has been undervalued every day "of it's existence." He told viewers that if they're afraid to buy such an expensive stock, divide it by 10 and think of it in that sense. Buy Buy Buy!
Next Cramer listed medical device makers that he likes by building a theoretical bionic woman. The first stock he listed was Alcon (ACL) which makes eye care products. He also recommended Smith and Nephew (SNN) and Stryker (SYK). His favorite one is Stryker, which he thinks could give you a 36% gain. Stryker has some litigation pending, but once that is settled he thinks the stock will take off. He also believes that the stock will do well if the economy slows. A caller asked about BioScrip (BIOS), and Cramer said that BIOS is an interesting takeover play with solid fundamentals.
"Are You Diversified?"
The first caller asked about his core of Google (GOOG), eBay (EBAY), Wachovia (WB), Nastech (NSTK) and Southwest (LUV). Cramer said he prefers United (UAUA). He said eBay overlaps with Google. He recommended selling eBay and buying a defensive stock.
A second caller's portfolio included Wells Fargo (WFC), Lockheed Martin (LMT), Texas Instruments (TXN), Exxon-Mobil (XOM) and Dover (DOV). "Hallelujah," Cramer said. There is a picture of this caller in the dictionary next to the entry for "diversification."
He also said "hallelujah" to the third callers portfolio which included Wachovia (WB), Research in Motion (RIMM), Schlumberger (SLB), Lockheed and Lundin Mining (LMC).
BioMarin Pharmaceutical (BMRN) CEO was on the show. Cramer discussed the prospects of an upcoming drug from BioMarin and said that he is bullish on the stock.
Finally, Cramer came back and said that he was wrong about Downey Financial (DSL), which was down big today.

Jim Cramer's Mad Money Stock Recap Sept. 20th

Goldman Sachs (GS): Cramer said they proved today that they're the only broker to own. Goldman Sachs proved itself during a downturn by shorting the mortgage market, Cramer said: "When you're right quarter after quarter after quarter, it isn't luck." They are underestimated by Wall Street, who believes that all brokers are the same, but Cramer says why settle for less when you can have GS for $230? He thinks they will be "dragged" into a higher multiple, but they deserve to sell at $300.
Yum! Brands (YUM): Cramer asked CEO David Novak how they have stayed consistent. Novak pointed out their "global portfolio" including Taco Bell, KFC and Pizza Hut. Their diversity gives them earnings power and tremendous opportunities to expand around the world. Yum! is the No. 1 retail developer in the world, ahead of McDonald's (MCD) and Starbucks (SBUX). Yum! is building one restaurant per day in China and continues to grow elsewhere, Novak said. Cramer asked Novak what he though about YUM being an unhealthy brand. Novak: Out food tastes good and people are looking for taste. Also, their menu's are getting broader and their growth has been exceptional.
Lululemon Lowdown: (LULU)
Cramer: If you are looking for the next Crocs (CROX) or Under Armor (UA), look at LULU. It's a yoga-apparel company who’s stock is up 28% from when Cramer recommended it two months ago. It has growth potential as a woman’s apparel play; 51% of the population. Cramer spoke to lululemon CEO Robert Meers on the show. Meers thinks it's a global opportunity and that people will pay for their quality products and services. He also said they operate well in college towns. Cramer asked about their lack of stores. Meers said their brand "cachet" is very important and that the right thing to do "is be special." Meers also mentioned their 800 number that operates for home delivery.
Sell Block: Cramer was asked why the sudden switch to Wachovia (WB)? Cramer said Wachovia struggled before the rate cut, but it's going to perform better now that interest rates are lower. "Its value will increase" and investors need to change with new events. He added, "It's more important to be consistent with reality than you were before the world changed."
Sudden Death:
Bullish: Nastech (NSTK), Qwest (Q), China Mobile (CHL), Paccar (PCAR) and NVIDIA (NVDA).
Bearish: Qiao Xing (XING) and Acadia (ACAD).
