Tyson Foods (TSN)
Q: I have
a tiny portfolio that my kids and I work
on together, and my 7 year old likes
chicken. And he is thinking Tyson Foods,
but they seem to have a lousy dividend
and earnings, what would be a better
choice?
Jim: I have to tell you
Kylie, I think that is a problematic
situation Tyson… and Richard Bond has
recently, recently left the company… we
had great hopes for him… it seems that
the problems at Tyson are too hard for
almost anyone to manage… my favorite
chicken play… I know this is going to
sound like it is a little attenuated..
would still be
McDonald's
(MCD)…
chicken McNuggets… every time they go
they will get a kick out of it… let’s
buy them some shares of Mickey Dee's…
and I am confident that Mr. Skinner, the
fabulous CEO will continue to deliver
for you and your kids.

WYNN |

Wynn Resorts (WYNN)
Q: I am
thinking about buying Wynn... Do I wait
a week or two? Or do I just jump right
in?
Jim: Well, you can wait…
but I don’t think that is actually going
to solve it… I actually like the Wynn
bonds more than I like common stock… I
have been emphasizing to people in
RealMoney.com
where I write the paid site of
TheStreet.com where I am chairman… that
International Game Technology
(IGT),
I don’t want to touch it… I am worried
about that…
MGM Mirage (MGM),
I don’t want to touch it… I am worried
about that, hit a 52 week low today…
Las Vegas Sands (LVS)
I told people to sell, sell, sell… I
believe that everyone in that group… I
get the Las Vegas Sun… my friend Matt
gives it to me… and I am very concerned
that this whole group is going
unreasonably lower… even after it is
going down… I don’t want you touching
that one… I think that one is trouble.

Manitowoc Co. Inc. (MTW)
Q:
MTW?...
Jim: No, no, no… they
over paid for a notice… we have been
having a sell that forever… and I am
reiterating… I am double selling… I am
triple selling.

VAR |
36.16 |
Varian Medical Systems Inc. (VAR)
Q: What
do you think about VAR - Varian Medical
Systems?
Jim: Yeah, I like
Varian… now I have to tell you that I
think the hospitals are going to be
struggling… but it doesn’t matter that
is the quality company in the industry…
I want to buy Varian… that is a little
variant from my Varian view… but I do
believe that Varian is come out fine.
