| theflyonthewall.com: | Jim Cramer's "Mad Money" | | Jim Cramer said win or lose, once the Greece issue is resolved the markets will breath easier, but if Greece defaults or gets kicked out of the eurozone, the market will give back some of its recent gains. Cramer outlined his game plan for the companies reporting the week of Feb. 13. (Monday) Masco (MAS) Cramer would buy shares on any weakness. (Tuesday) recent IPO Michael Kors (KORS) he'd buy on any weakness. Zynga (ZNGA) he'd "ring the register". (Wednesday) John Deere (DE), Devon Energy (DVN) and Goldcorp (GG) - Cramer advised a wait-and-see approach with all three names. (Thursday) General Motors (GM) buy under $22. VF Vorp. (VFC) take profits ahead of their release. (Friday) Cramer said that he's worried about Campbells Soup (CPB) and Heinz (HNZ) and would not be a buyer of either. On the IPO front, Cramer recommended investors buy in on the Brightcove IPO, but all while keeping an eye on the Currency Shares Euro Trust (FXE) to see how the markets are reacting to the latest Greek news. SPECULATION FRIDAY: Cramer returned to Fortinet (FTNT) which is up 208% since his Novermber 2009 recommendation. He said that the cyber-security theme is still in tact, and with hackers getting more sophisticated every day, more and more companies will need Fortinet's unified threat management systems. The shares are expensive trading at 43x earnings with a 21% growth rate. But given the size of the market opportunity, Cramer said it's still worth buying shares on any market pullback. Fortinet recently reported excellent earnings. Given Fortinet's size, Cramer said the company may also be a takeover target someday. For the final "All Request" segment of the week, Cramer responded to a tweet asking him to compare Tempur-Pedic (TPX) and Select Comfort (SCSS) in a battle of the high-end mattress makers. The premium mattress segment is a lucrative one for both companies. Cramer said that Select Comfort, trading at 22x earnings with a 19% growth rate, is by far the better deal. Select Comfort, with only 5% market share, has more room to grow. Its same-store comps rose by a greater percent and it has higher margins than Tempur. MAD MAIL: Cramer was bullish on Optimer Pharmaceuticals (OPTR) as a speculative play but was bearish on KIT Digital (KITD) and Guidewire (GWRE), advising investors to sell now. Cramer said that he's not a buyer of C&J Services (CJES), and prefers Core Labs (CLB) and Schlumberger (SLB), both of which have less natural gas exposure. Cramer said there's no rush to Massimo (MASI) and would wait for a pullback. He also noted that Ziopharm Oncology (ZIOP) is like playing FDA roulette and is not for the faint of heart. Cramer would hold onto Nvidia (NVDA), but admitted the stock is a "wide ride." Cramer said he's not a buyer of Nuance Communications (NUAN). Then, Cramer also clarified his position on Apple (AAPL). He said that yes, Apple is less of a company without founder and visionary Steve Jobs, but that doesn't mean its not still a great company and great stock to own. He said the company's chart says it all. LIGHTNING ROUND: (Bullish) DHR; DSW; ROST; TJX; ISRG; TKR. (Bearish) TSL; ZOLT; AFFY. http://www.thestreet.com/story/11412352/1/cramers-mad-money-recap-next-weeks-game-plan-update-1.html :theflyonthewall.com |

| theflyonthewall.com: | Jim Cramer's "Mad Money" | | Jim Cramer said Wednesday's markets gave investors so many ways to win and better yet, it gave it when investors were least expecting it. Whirlpool (WHR) was able to beat and raise estimates, all while most investors thought the housing market was still declining. He said that Boeing (BA) shares were able to trade higher, despite defense cutbacks in Washington. And Navistar (NAV) also ticked higher on news of its partnership with Clean Energy Fuels (CLNE). Then of course there was the announcement of the Facebook IPO, a deal that's so hot investors are even buying up shares of the underwriters. In technology, Cramer admitted that Amazon.com (AMZN) disappointed, but the markets also has a surprise beat from disk drive maker Seagate (STX), which rose 21% in a single day. Internationally, the markets received news that China's economic soft-landing is indeed happening, something that bodes well for companies levered to China like Caterpillar (CAT), Yum Brands (YUM) and Coach (COH), the latter two hitting 52-week highs Wednesday. Put all of these factors together, said Cramer, and its easy to see why he's so excited about the possibilities. Cramer opined on what to do with Amazon.com (AMZN) after the company's disappointing earnings. His conclusion? Don't do anything. Cramer said Amazon has proven to be a consistent winner on weakness, and selling shares after a sell-off has always been a terrible bet. He concluded that Amazon is a "wait-and-see" situation. For Wednesday's installment of his "Show Off Stocks" series, Cramer highlighted motorcycle legend Harley Davidson (HOG), which is seeing demand for its product grow at the fastest pace since 2005. The company is diversifying its customer base and now aggressively attracting younger riders, as well as women and minorities. Additionally, Harley is completing a major restructuring this year that will shave $325M a year off the company's cost structure. Trading at just 13.5x earnings with a 14.5% long-term growth rate, Cramer said shares of Harley Davidson are far too cheap. EXECUTIVE DECISION: Cramer checked in with David Demshur, chairman, president and CEO of Core Labs (CLB), an oil service technology company that Cramer said is the one to buy. Among the areas Demshur was most excited about were deep water drilling off of Brazil and Angola as well as projects in the Middle East and off the coast of Australia. He said Core Labs believes in long-term shareholder appreciation and will remain committed to the company's dividend and stock re-purchase program. Cramer continued his recommendation of Core Labs and again told investors to use the weakness which occurs after every earnings release to buy in. LIGHTNING ROUND: (Bullish) URI; AAPL; LSI; MX; AVAV; KFN. (Bearish) RIMM; BX. Reference Link :theflyonthewall.com |
