HERO - My hero!...
My hero, while I was watching
the President talk about
drilling... If only we had the
ability to waive the magic wand,
because I believe there's
trillions of cubic feet of
natural gas... But HERO an
obvious winner, if the President
gets his way... Even if he
just gets his way in Florida...
Now we know, unfortunately, and
we say unfortunately because I
am a believer in "new
technology"... American
technology has allowed us to be
able to drill all over the world
without spills, unlike Santa
Barbara in 1969 with Union
Oil... No one is listening
in this country... they're
drilling away... but HERO is the
right way to play it, if you
think the President has good
luck.
WIRE - Yeah... you
know, this is a problematic
one... they are buyers of
copper... I think copper
is going much, much higher.
They don't have an edge there.
I do not want to own the stock.
I worry that people don't
understand the way the raw
costs... This stock, by
the way, has been loved by
traders for years. It
reminds me of wafer... of MEMC Electronic Materials
(WFR)...
This is a company that, in the
end, is residential wiring...
You don't want to be linked to
residential wiring in the midst
of a housing crisis!
STO - Excellent
article this week in The
Financial Times... about
the decline in the North Sea...
and, while the British companies
have felt the decline more than
the Norwegian ones, STO is
running out of oil. We
don't want to be in that oil,
and it's very rare that I hit
the bear button for any oil...
We want to be in natural gas
companies that are finding oil.
I've got one coming up after
this Lightning Round... see it
here... but STO is
losing oil so, therefore, in the
end, will lose money for you, as
a stock.
ARG - I like ARG!
We like ARG. We've had the
CEO on... We know that
these are companies that are
uniquely levered to new
technology, that produce gasses
that are necessary...
(buzzer sounds)... ARG is
a company that produces a lot of
the gasses that we need in order
to get oil out of the ground,
and natural gas out of the
ground.... That's a
fabulous business! People
don't understand... it's much
less cyclical... it's levered to
the price of oil and natural
gas... therefore it's a win.
DGX - You know,
I don't like them as much as
Laboratory Corp. of America
(LH)...
I owned DGX for
my charitable trust... I couldn't
make a dime in it. I just
don't think it's as good as LH,
which has got a lot more
momentum. I would swap out
of yours and into mine.

Back up the truck -
indicated by Jim, when he
says the stock is so good,
that he would do a
'mon-back' on the stock...
In other words, this is the
sound someone would say to a
truck driver, "Come on
back... " as he is "backing
up the truck" to load up on
his cargo. Translation
for buying stocks:
This recommendation by Jim
indicates that, after you do
your own
homework on the stock,
you should feel comfortable
loading up on it, as it is
in a good position to be
bought at this point.
Stumped. - Of the
2,000+ stocks that Jim
Cramer has in his head, for
which he has an informed
opinion, he sometimes comes
across a caller with a stock
he does not know well enough
to opine on... He then
indicates he is stumped and
will have to come back to
it, after he does some
homework of his own on
the stock. This
usually occurs during the
Lightning Round, when Jim
does not know in advance who
is calling, or what their
stock question is about.
Definitions of key phrases
used by Jim, known as
"Cramerisms":
Definition: 'Pull the
trigger' is Jim's phrase for making
the decision at that point to trade -
either to 'buy' or
to 'sell' (although he
usually uses the phrase for
buying), as if to say you
should feel comfortable
enough to make the final
decision without looking
back...
Definition: 'Ring
the Register' is Jim's phrase for
selling a stock, and making
it a final sale, that you
should not look back on.
Put it behind you.
Definition:'Let It Come In' indicates how you
may wait for it to pull back, or have the
stock price come down briefly, as your
chance (after letting it come in) to buy
the rest of your position (i.e., total
number of shares you own in that stock).
Definition:'backing it up'
or 'doing a 'mon-back' is Jim's
phrase for the metaphor of backing up a
truck to load up on a stock by buying
it. 'Mon-back is short for the
imaginary worker saying, 'Come on
back...' as the truck is backing up to
receive its load... Notice that we use
the little truck icon to indicate where
Jim has mentioned this.
Translation for buying
stocks: This
recommendation by Jim
indicates that, after you do
your own
homework on the stock,
you should feel comfortable
loading up on it, as it is
in a good position to be
bought at this point.
