Price does appear to be drawn to that line. This would put a technical price target on the shares of $240 to $245. Support is at $220. :theflyonthewall.com |

| theflyonthewall.com: | Jim Cramer's "Mad Money" | | Jim Cramer outlined his gameplan for this week. He advised investors to keep listening to those conference calls, as the sentiments from individual companies will be far more telling than any macro-economic data. Cramer said it's time to buy J Crew (JCG) ahead of its earnings on Monday. He called the company "the finest retailer in the country," with strong management and easy comparisons. He said he'd also consider Men's Warehouse (MW), another firm with strong same-store sales growth. Cramer said he'll be listening to Dick's Sporting Goods (DKS) for insights as to whether Nike (NKE) and Under Armour (UA) might have promising results when they report. On Tuesday, Cramer said he wants to hear from the Chinese firm E-House (EJ) for a read on the state of real estate in China. Likewise, he said grocery store chain Kroger (KR) should have insights as to whether it might be time to ring the register on private label food companies like Treehouse (THS) and Perrigo (PRGO). Finally, on Wednesday, Cramer said he's going to hold off buying Carrizo Oil & Gas (CRZO) if natural gas futures are trending lower, and he's avoiding Brown Forman (BF.B) altogether. Clean Energy Fuels (CLNE) however, could be an opportunity, and is worth paying attention to, he said. SPECULATION FRIDAY: Cramer recommended Gentex (GNTX), a high-tech auto parts maker specializing in auto-dimming rear view mirrors. Cramer said this little auto-parts company is more like a technology company. Cramer said Gentex is a solid performer and would be growing even without the massive build up in U.S. auto inventory that's currently occurring. Gentex would benefit if pending legislation in Congress passes that would require rear-camera displays on all cars sold in the U.S. On the downside, Cramer said Toyota's (TM) ongoing woes have cost Gentex 10,000 units a week, as Toyota has ceased production of its cars while it retools its brake pedals. Cramer said Gentex has a pristine balance sheet, with $2.25 a share in cash and no debt. It trades just off its 52-week high, and Cramer said he would not chase the stock higher. Next, Cramer recommended Dreamworks Animation (DMA), a stock that restaurateur Danny Meyer added to his hospitality index just two weeks ago on "Mad Money." Cramer said Dreamworks is a fabulous play on the continued roll-out of 3D animated films. Cramer's last 3D recommendation was theater chain Cinemark (CNK), which is up 20% since he recommended it on Feb. 5. Dreamworks delivered a 13 cent-a-share earnings beat when it last reported. Cramer said Dreamworks is more in control of its costs than ever, and less competition should yield longer run times for its films. Like Gentex, Cramer said Dreamworks is just off its 52-week high, and he would not chase the stock higher. "Wait for a pullback," he concluded. MAD MAIL: Cramer told viewers that Citigroup (C) is the last great bargain on Wall Street. He said CEO Vikram Pandit gave a fabulous performance in front of Congress yesterday, and Cramer's sticking with his $12 price target in 2012. Cramer told a viewer that the dividend at EV Energy Partners (EVEP) is a safe one, and he likes the stock. HE is also sticking with his recommendation of Electronic Arts (ERTS), even though the stock is a little lower than where he first embraced it. LIGHTNING ROUND: (Bullish) PG; TNK; SPLS; PALM; DOW; ARMH. (Bearish) VMI. Reference Link :theflyonthewall.com |

Range breakouts can persist for some time in the direction of the break. Since we have no established resistance levels, we have to use an alternate means to calculate potential upside objectives. Based on average range, the following levels could become additional upside targets: $219.91, $224.31, $228.80. It would be bearish if the shares fell back below the top of the range, which was at the $215.60 area. :theflyonthewall.com |

| theflyonthewall.com: | Barrons.com advises investors "stay away" from Palm shares | | Shares of the smartphone maker Palm (PALM) were down 17% Thursday to $6.70 after the company warned that upcoming results would fall short of street expectations. In fact, Palm shares have now fallen a staggering 61% since September. The news confirms speculation that Palm's rollout on Verizon's network is floundering. Earlier Thursday, Morgan Stanley's Ehud Gelblum downgraded the stock to Equal Weight from Overweight, saying their bullish thesis "has not played out." Gelbum said, "the stock has little valuation support at its current level and could move closer to our original bear case valuation of $4." That price would basically undo a stunning run from Palm. Some 47% of Palm shares are now held short, which signals significant investor skepticism. Despite a well-regarded software platform known as WebOS and heavily promoted roll-outs on both Sprint and Verizon, the Pre and Pixi have simply never found much of an audience. Palm's market share remained mired in the single digits throughout 2009, according to ChangeWave Research. Palm might find a buyer if its stock continues to fall, says Barrons.com, but with its phones out of favor even that looks increasingly unlikely. Reference Link :theflyonthewall.com |

HP’s anemic performance in the smartphone market has left analysts perplexed. Sales of HP’s hand-held products, including its iPaq smartphone, dropped to $25M in the quarter, down from $57M in the same period last year. HP has put little effort into the design or marketing of the iPaq device, and has been overshadowed by products from companies like Research In Motion (RIMM), HTC and Apple (AAPL). Kevin Restivo, an analyst with the research company IDC says, “Whatever the strategy is, HP needs to move quickly right now, because we’re in the halcyon days of smartphone growth, and it won’t last forever.” HP’s stumble comes despite the company’s repeated insistence over the years that it wanted to be a big player in smartphones.
