Cramer's Rants / Stockl's Lemons

[billyjoe]

6/08/06

This is my first report on Cramer and Stocklemon. Cramer comments Mon-Fri.
Stocklemon , not as often so it will be here. It's not easy listening to Cramer for an hour , but somehow I made it.

--------------------------Cramer-------------------------------

Today's subject : Speculation

Summary : Most speculators don't know what they're doing. These stocks are very risky. You can easily throw money away on them. Characteristics : have little/no earnings , checkered track record , between 2.00 - 10.00 , price moves on news , great ideas, yet to cash in on them , ethanol stocks are latest example . Recommendations : never use borrowed money to buy them , use only money you can afford to lose , maximum of 20% of your descretionary funds.
Today Cramer started a Speculative Index Fund that he will track over time.
These stocks should be regarded as very risky , very volatile , for short term holding. They are down over 15% since market top 5/11/06. Cramer's take on these is of every 5 speculative stocks , 2 will crash , 2 will do little , 1 may be a triple.

--------CNXT------TMX--------FNSR-------NXG---------CIEN

Stocks Cramer likes today : VOD MDRX GM SHLD he hates : GPS

He believes global positioning stocks are about to explode , the hot mapping stocks in order of quality : GRMN TRMB NVT MAPS


Stocklemon : nothing new , They still hate HOM and seem to have "the goods" on them

Doug,
You may remember Cramer was even wilder maybe 15 years ago when he appeared rarely on network financial segments. They were scared of what he might say or do . He claims to have been close to a stroke , nervous breakdown , or both during his hedge fund years. He says his wife, the Stock Goddess, is a much better trader than he.

----------billyjoe

No I don't remember...But 'ya know Steve Martin had a breakdown years ago...He used to be a tour guide at DisneyLand...Guess we all have our breaking point???

The Stock Goddess...Don't know...But...although I don't like to stereotype in any regard...From my experience, the BEST traders I personally know are women...But then again...Some of the worst one's are too...Go figure???

[Rob]

Mrs Lye, me, Pam & Gary went to see Jerry Seinfeld tonight at the Rke CC.... My gut hurts from laughing so hard at that crazy dude!Was that tonight? I didn't know. Doesn't matter, 'cause I probably wouldn't have gone. I'll bet it was riotously funny, though. We had a much more low-key evening. Mrs. Rob and I went to that X-Men 3 movie tonight. It's a pretty good flick if you like those movies based on comic books, which I do.

Edit: What's Gary buying these days?

[Lyehopper]

Jerry said..... "Why is everybody in the Middle East so whacked out anyway?.... Is it because there's all that sand.... and no beach?".... Then he elaborates as only he can....

Then he was cracking on terrorists..... He said.... "What I like is the suicide bomber that just blows himself up and no one else is hurt.... What do the terrorists call this guy "Wile-E- Al-Quida"?.... I can see em now.... a helmet on his head, roller-skates on his feet and rockets strapped to his back (then Seinfeld crouches down and squints his eyes like he's gonna take off) then it's kablooooooeee! (he says with that cracking yelling voice)"....

He had a bunch of new funny material. Go see him if he's gonna be in your town, it's worth it imo....

[Lyehopper]

What's Gary buying these days?
Well since I trade his account for him.LOL.... He's short what ever I am right now dude.SsSsSsSssssss!

[Rob]

I didn't know you did that. Wow! He really trusts you, don't he?

I'd be careful with those short positions. Like Runner says, there may be a healthy bounce here. Very difficult to call, though.

Oh! beleive me.... I will.... I've got him about 75% cash anyhow. He likes to see that pie chart green on these big red down days.... He called me today all happy that he was making money on such a crappy day.LOL! He has never been one to short sell.... so he like's to see that.

[Lyehopper]

Just watched Crammmmmer.... Here's what I got from it in a nutshell.lol

Short DSTI
Short STP
Short ENER
Short OSUR

He likes ESLR but I say short it too....

The HUGE cap stuff he mentions (Like JNJ) I just ignore.

Cramer 6/13/06

When hunting for bargains, look for a hated beaten down sector. One that a hedge fund wouldn't be caught dead with. Right now a perfect candidate is Natural Gas. Trading at a 1 -12 ratio in relation to oil, one of the lowest ratios in memory. Cramer likes CRZO , a possible takeover . Other stocks apparently bottomed out with little more downside but much in the way of upside potential are WCI and RDA.
Cash is a good defence in a bad economy. Stocks with lots of cash other than banks or insurance companies are AAPL CEO and SGP , all having between !5%-19% of their market cap in cash on hand.

Hated stocks today : JDSU AV GTW

A natural gas play that has property in BOTH barnett shale AND fayette shale is Hallwood Group... HWG. Super low float and has taken an absolute beating lately. It got a nice $5+ head start today. hmmmm, I wonder why?

Peanuts,
HWG has been getting mention a lot lately. Maybe people who thought they'd make their fortune from rising nat. gas will if they buy now.

6/14/06 Cramer Report

Sell ethanol. Most of the money to be made in ethanol has already been made. Several IPO's will be coming shortly related to this fuel. There will be much more supply than demand. It has become too speculative as have solar energy stocks. Any increase in natural gas prices which are now depressed will further crush ethanol.

Know your fellow stockholders, as only buyers and sellers ultimately move the price of stocks. Stay defensive until the bad shareholders are driven away. Cramer defines a bad shareholder as one purchasing stocks on margin. Buy when margin debt is low. Margin debt is up 50 billion in the last year. Cash will encourage the market, not borrowed money.

Ya know...There is no such thing as bad publicity...Any publicity is good publicity...I'm just waitin' for some joker at IBD to respond to one of my posts on the Net...Obviously if any employee ever does they would probably be summarily canned (At least I would fire 'em if I was in charge) and probably wouldn't work in the industry anymore.

So I decided to come up with THE IBD CHALLENGE...

I'm offering a FULL and COMPLETE Refund to EVERYONE who paid me if my IIC 100 Top 10 doesn't beat the IBD 100 Top 10 at the close on 12/29/06 using the buy/sell criteria I have been yapping about since the beginning of the year(2006)...Buy 'em all at the open on the first trading day of the week...Sell 'em all at the close on the last trading day of the week...Every week since the first of the year...

How 'bout it IBD???...Are you willing to match my offer???

[DSteckler]

Doug, do you really think anyone at IBD cares?

[IIC]

Doug, do you really think anyone at IBD cares?

If they didn't why did they have all the posts at my Yahoo group emailed to them?...Why did they infiltrate Reed's forum with a fake name?

For not caring they sure do a lot of poking around...Doug

[DSteckler]

I didn't express myself well - do you really think anyone from IBD is trolling on Ernie's board and will see your challenge? That's what I was trying to ask.

Well...unfortunately I can't see the isp's used here at Ernie's Forum...But Ernie mentioned that they had visited his Mr M site.

When you have your own site you can see the isp's of the visitors...You just translate the numbers to a domain name. All I did was translate the domain names to numbers ahead of time...then just watched to see if those numbers appear on the visitor list...Couldn't do that at Yahoo...But there are other ways...Doug

Cramer 6/15/06

Crazy Uncle Ben B. today was metamorphasized into our buddy Gentle Ben. If you still believe we're headed to the stock poorhouse buy stocks that thrive during bad times. These companies make generic foods, drugs , knockoffs , private labels , etc. The top 3 in this category are : RAH PRGO DLTR.

It's also a good time to go value hunting , especially for stocks that don't jump out at you with big dividends but have a history of special dividends and usually hold lots of cash. Two good ones are NUE and FCX.

Watch out for stocks that borrow money by issuing convertible bonds to raise money to buy back shares. Short sellers will usually drive the price of these stocks down for a couple weeks. After these shares stabilize, they may become bargains.

Favored stocks today : JEC VLO YUM LM BA CAI

Cramer 6/16/06

Three part strategy for next week. 1.) Buy into strength as the quarter is ending. Especially stocks that issued good earnings reports but haven't been rewarded due to recent downturn. Hedge funds will start loading up on these to show investors they own quality. Best examples are : BSC BBY GS CAT. 2.) diversify with stocks that will do well if downturn continues : RAH GIS VFC. 3.) If you're a bit of a risk taker, take a chance before earnings of BBBY FDX , disregard #3 if you're more conservative.

Cramer 6/19/06

Cramer is doing something he's never done or hasn't for years. He recommends buying an airline , CAL , and holding for a few months until the "open sky" policy is enacted this summer. This will make CAL a takeover target for the European's Air France or KLM. CAL will have good earnings next quarter, they've broken the unions, fuel costs seem to have stabilized , and increased fees won't be lowered. Competition has been eliminated. Sell shortly after takeover bids are made. CAL will go up in price even if another U.S. airline is targeted.

Back to Cramer : 6/20/06

One hotel chain to buy is HLT. They are the largest worldwide and room rates are on the rise. Their projected earnings increase is 20% + while closest competitors are 14% or less . Gross margin at 37% dwarfs the competition. Most of their profits are made from renting the Hilton brand name out to franchisees. They collect the $$$ but do little of the work.

Cramer 6/21/06

These are the best takeover candidates. They all have cash and are solid on their own.

MED made it's debut on my cheap stocks port. on 12/5/05 at 5.65 . I never bought it , but instead purchased MOSS a clothing supplier for Target. Sold at a small loss after an analyst downgrade . Within 3 weeks it was a takeover target and I would have made 30% or more in a day. Bad timing again.

Featured stock is WHR whose recent buyout of Maytag gives it a virtual monopoly in the washer/dryer business in the U.S. with about 75% of total potential sales. They also get 250 million in cost savings in the acquisition which has circumnavigated the Sherman Anti-Trust laws. They have almost no competition from overseas due to high shipping costs . The Justice Dept. has once again proven itself to be of , by , and for the corporation.

TRN is the leader in the soon to be booming railcar and barge building business as well as concrete highway barriers. They also have the corner on ethanol transport railcars. Many aged railcars are scheduled for replacement in the near future.

Stocklemon update : Stocklemon believes that MED is grossly overpriced when it's revenues are compared to recently sold Jenny Craig . NTRI also seems to be a much more profitable peer. MED's CEO and wife have sold 3.7 million or 25% of their holdings , but Stocklemon sees nothing fraudulent or suspicious with MED. MED finished lower by 4.55 or 21.77% today.

Cramer 6/23/06

Game plan for next week. Get in to stocks at 52 week highs. Funds will want to show holders the winners they hold at the end of the quarter. Buy 1/2 position before the FED meeting and 1/2 position after the FED meeting. Three good ones to consider : JCP , the most consistent retailer is going more high end. FMD , huge student loan business 30% of the float is short , big short squeeze coming soon. FMD has little to no debt and is growing at a 20-30% clip annually. GRMN of GPS fame also shows 14% annual growth rate. Two others with great possibilities and earnings due next week are RIMM and PALM.

Cramer is apparently on vacation and they're showing re-runs. I know some folks here consider any information about Cramer as welcome as a turd in the punch bowl and I see your point but believe he does come up with interesting thoughts and ideas that make a person question their stock selection process. I haven't bought any of his recommendations in nearly 3 years but I've looked into several of them. Let me know if you'd rather I quit posting about Cramer. Maybe it doesn't really belong here.

Mineral extraction and mining equipment companies that operate in foreign countries are such a big part of the economies there they can afford to make payoffs to governments that seem enormous though they actually represent pennies in stock price. They are almost in partnership with the countries and are in little danger of being nationalized as might happen with smaller companies.
---3 best mining companies :
BHP--2nd in copper production,3rd in nickle, 4th in uranium
FCX--copper and gold , large mines in Indonesia , Spain
RTP--huge in iron ore extraction sell worldwide

---3 best mining equipment companies :
MTW--extraction by crane
TEX---heavy equipment for surface mining
CAT---best of breed trucks,trucks,trucks

Demand will continue for minerals in U.S.A. as well as (BRIC) Brazil, Russia,India,and China

Cramer is apparently on vacation and they're showing re-runs. I know some folks here consider any information about Cramer as welcome as a turd in the punch bowl and I see your point but believe he does come up with interesting thoughts and ideas that make a person question their stock selection process. I haven't bought any of his recommendations in nearly 3 years but I've looked into several of them. Let me know if you'd rather I quit posting about Cramer. Maybe it doesn't really belong here.
-------billyjoe

Nah, it's all good billyjoe. I couldn't care less about what Cramer thinks of any particular stock, and I don't believe following his picks will make anyone any real money in the long run, but there is value in knowing what he's touting on his show, if just to explain some of the herd movement in these stocks... also you can actually get a few tidbits of news that you might otherwise miss from watching the show.

But if you can get all the important information from the show right here on this thread, there's really no reason at all you'd have to listen to his ugly manic mug. So I say go ahead and continue these posts, but only as long as that's what YOU enjoy doing.

Heads Up...Stock Lemon's next target will be MOVE


Hey...my crystal ball was right http://stocklemon.com/

[billyjoe]

Cramer was back today , but I forgot to watch. As you may have heard from Doug (IIC) stocklemon did a report on MOVE (was HOMS until May '06). In summation, MOVE sells on line real estate listings space , has lost 2 billion over the last 13 years , with a tiny profit in '05. Despite a poor track record , price of the stock more than tripled in the past year. Although there are no convicted executives working for them at present , 11 former employees have been convicted on federal charges . Stocklemon considers MOVE to have a "terminal" business model that couldn't make money in one of the most prosperous periods in real estate history.

Reuters June 22nd : Stuart Wolff, former chief executive was found guilty of insider trading, falsifying records,inflating ad revenue by 67 million dollars, and lying to company accountants. Other executives of HOMS altered web sites, press releases, backdated documents , and used false addresses . They also conspired to blame the Sept 11th attacks for a performance drop of 20 million below estimates for that quarter. Also pleading guilty were former VP, ex-COO , and ex- CFO.

MOVE sells on line real estate listings space , has lost 2 billion over the last 13 years , with a tiny profit in '05.$2 billion over 13 years? That works out to $12.8 MILLION PER MONTH! How does a little start-up, Internet-based company even spend that much money in one month? Let alone every month for 156 months in a row? And presumably there were some earnings to offset those losses, meaning they spent even more than that! That's just unbelievable. They must have bought one heck of a lot of advertising, but they didn't buy enough to find me, because I never heard of 'em.

STJ--got bad reputation caused by faulty products of others such as BSX. STJ makes heart devices and are likely to be the target of a takeover bid.

By attacking their competitors at the first sign of weakness they are able to buy branches of the competition often for a price well under yearly sales . They recently acquired Sara Lee's European pork business for about .75 per dollar of yearly sales. Con Agra's Butterball turkey and ham divisions also have been or are about to be taken over.

Cramer 7/11/06

According to Cramer, 50% of a stock's upside is determined by sector strength regardless of earnings. For example , last quarter drugstore stocks as a sector tanked even though some such as WAG put up good numbers. These stocks stayed down for 7 weeks until rising FED rates put drugstores back in favor. Latest quarter earnings for WAG were very similar to last quarter , however, the sector now in favor responded with a good performance even for some bad stocks in the group.

Currently most tech stocks that have no defense by way of dividends , buybacks, acquisitions , and give no guidance are ripe for negative reactions in line with the market.

Today's rally was because the market was oversold. A herd mentality is running the market. High volume is needed to continue rally.

Four factors to use in picking superior industrial stocks.
1. do they supply or operate in the BRIC countries (Brazil Russia India China)
2. are they heavily effected by bull markets
3. do they see a bright future for themselves ( especially if they raise guidance)
4. are they actively buying back shares

Buy banks now while they're still cheap 5 reasons why :

1.) They are buying back stock in record numbers

2.) New bankruptcy laws are good for banks

3.) On average are priced below S&P multiples

4.) Even after 17 rate increases banks have fewest loan losses in years

5.) Fees are making banks $$ reducing dependence on money from loans

This is a stealth bull market. Many companies are doing great but no one notices them with all the bad news.I saw that, Billyjoe, and I gotta tell ya, I'm in Cramer's camp on that one. All these panty-waists selling good companies on the cheap need to take a good look at reality for a change.

[spikefader]

...panty-waists selling good companies on the cheap need to take a good look at reality for a change.Forgive me if I've read that statement incorrectly or defensively, Rob. But I see two problems with that "panty-waist" adjective.

a) it's unfair and sexist to suggest that anyone who happens to be wearing panties (hopefully ladies only jejeje) can't trade effectively and make money or limit losses selling those so-called "good companies"
and
b) it implies that selling or shorting so-called "fundamentally good companies" is "ineffectual", despite the repeated evidence of late to the contrary.

As I see it, technically weak stocks should be sold to limit losses. They should be shorted to increase profits.

Either way, the bottom line is that if it's a choice between producing the goods and being called a panty-waist it's a no-brainer - give me the label!

It has nothing to do with gender. It has nothing to do with fear. It's not personal.

But it has everything to do with reality, what really is, or might be, and admitting that some things occur for reasons beyond the fundamental.

Have a great weekend dude!

You know, Spike, I was afraid you or somebody might take that personally, and I almost didn't post it because of that. I like T/A pretty well, but within reason. I was just puffing out my chest and blustering because I agreed so whole-heartedly with what Cramer said on his show tonight about good companies being sold cheap. And when I used the term "panty-waist," I was not thinking of anyone on this forum, mainly just ticked off that institutional investors keep selling and selling when there's no good reason for it--like a bunch of "girly-men." And I mean no offense to any of the fairer gender by that comment either. It's just me blowing off a little steam.

A tale of two stocks : one a Faux Secular that in reality is a Cyclical (WWY) , the other a true Secular Growth stock still perceived to be a Cyclical (CSX).

CSX has a multiple of 14X earnings. In the past it was considered cyclical since railroads were a last resort when problems arose with trucking. They are no longer dependent on a strong economy. They carry a strong mix of secular products , 25% coal , 12% grain for pig and chicken feed , 10-12% aggregate stone for road repair , 10% municipal waste. These all are needed regardless of economic conditions. Railroads have virtually no competition. No new railroads are being built. They can screw customers with rate hikes and customers can hardly switch to commercial trucking. Railroad equipment lasts longer without the constant maintenance needed for trucking.

WWY has been considered a Secular Growth stock for years. With tremendous competition from CSG , Cadbury Schweppes , lack of successful new products , and poor management (Wm.Wrigley Jr.) , they will have a difficult time delivering consistent earnings growth. Multiple is 22X earnings.

Billyjoe,

I watched half of Cramer and and saw that he said good things about SGG. He mentioned that they make specialty steel something-or-others for high tech companies... this statement makes me really wonder just how much Cramer actually knows. I happen to know quite a lot about SGG, and from all encounters with the company and it's people, I have no knowledge that they deal in ANY steel products. I know that their core business is producing carbon electrodes for EAF's (electric arc furnaces). The way these are made is actually really interesting- extremely dirty, but really cool. Think of play-do and the little presses that they sell as kits to make extruded shapes like stars, cylinders, and what not... That's how they make these giant electrodes... they make up this mix of mostly carbon, a bonding agent, and aggregate... get it hot and put it in a big vat... then press the material through an opening (I've seen electrodes as big as 2 feet in diameter) to extrude a long cylinder of the material. Then they treat it, and harden it, and tap it, and thread it, and pack it, and ship it.

THIS is their core business, and though I agree with Cramer that the company is a 'BUY', I disagree with with him regarding the market in which they participate. SGG products are in high demand- not because of high quality or low pricing, but because the Steel Industry is booming and there are not enough electrode makers to supply the worldwide demand. Order booking is suggested to be done 3-4 months in advance from domestic producers and off-shore accounts can be backlogged as far out as 10 months!!!

If anyone is looking for a business opportunity, it would be in the importing and marketing of foreign electrodes for steelmaking EAF's.

Now, regarding Cramer: he seems to know a lot about the stocks that people ask him about, and he speaks with authority when giving his opinion. But, this is not the first time I remember him mistakingly describe a company's business (i.e. GV). It makes me doubt his future comments when he's talking about companies on the fly. However, I also think he is a sharp fellow that does good research and can make a lot of money himself as a trader. He has a grasp of the market that is better than 90% of the population (my opinion), and gives good advice regarding the analysis of portfolios and specific investments (after a thorough review). I think he should stop taking all these slap shots from the viewers... sure it gets ratings, but I think it will eventually come back to bite him.

And Billyjoe, thank you for doing a recap of his daily show. I like it and appreciate your efforts.


Looking for popular stock advice from Cramer
Is the typical path of a investing home-gamer.

[billyjoe]

Peanuts,
Thanks for your support. I think you may be right about Cramer sometimes not knowing as much about a stock as he claims. Rarely does he admit that he isn't familiar with a company and a few times he's come back and said his comments were about another company with a similar stock symbol , but overall he is quite knowledgeable. I find it interesting when he calls a CEO on the carpet for misleading information and he does it quite often. He said today that the NBR CEO had been telling it like it is for 20 years and that the analysts were wrong on NBR. I wouldn't want my company to get on Cramer's sh#* list. Cramer does make some terrible calls from time to time and he's such a good salesman he can easily sway a person's opinion. That's a danger I see with him , but if you can see through the hype there's some value in his program.
----------booyahboyaudit.com says his 52 week record is 428 winners 462 losers 3 unchanged with a gain of 4.28% vs. 3.72% DOW and 2.02% S&P 500.I thought it would be better than that and I believe a person could do their homework on his picks and improve greatly on those numbers.

1.) the company converted a Venezuelan bond to cash and now has 500 million in the bank

2.) NASDAQ said FHAL would be approved for immediate trading if price set at 1.75/share

3.) There are 62 million outstanding shares give or take 10 million. SEC filings state an additional 95 million in convertable debt and preferred stock

CEO Harris again urges everyone to buy as much stock as possible
Stocklemon tells Harris if he can prove they have 500 million in cash and equity they will remove all mention of FHAL from the stocklemon site and purchase a Run By Love CD from them and listen to it in it's entirety.

Stocklemon also warns FHAL that they are protected by the first amendment and FHAL will have to pay court costs for any trivial lawsuits brought against them. Stocklemon has all but come out and called CEO Harris a nut case.

Cramer 8/3/06 Buybacks

Not all stock buybacks are good. Here's 4 bad types:

1.) the ugly borrowed money buyback , funds are borrowed instead of from excess cash (TWX)
2.) botox buyback used to shrink market cap to hide low earnings (ENR)

3.) schizophrenic buyback, blowing cash in an industry that's going down the toilet (PFGC)
4.) impotent buyback - buyback followed by issuing new stock

Here are 4 good types of buybacks :

1.) value buyback-stock is worth less than value of company assets (OMM) bought back 18% of outstanding shares last year

2.) nobody believes in us buyback --we know we're good but analysts don't believe it or care (JCP) bought back 14% of shares last year

3.) afraid of being taken over buyback--(IR)

4.) aggressive buyback-- good news is just around the corner and we want to cash in (DVN) bought 10% of shares

BAC and WFC just strenghtened their stocks with major buybacks

What if anything is promising in retail ? Forget teen clothing , it's dead, the show is over, however, infant and toddler fashions up to age 10 are hot with 2 stocks head and shoulders above the rest.

GYMB--started out selling girls clothes , now into boys in a major way.They operate under 5 divisions with 17 outlet stores, 28 Canadian, and 537 retail U.S. stores. Selling at 18X earnings they have raised guidance.

PLCE---best kids clothing chain. Comp store sales +15%, largest guidance increase of all clothing retailers, bought out 317 Disney Stores and retain the valuable name brand,all stores are company owned, trade at 16X earnings

Multiple contraction is killing high multiple stocks, regardless of earnings. 3 big examples : Starbucks , Whole Foods , Hansens Natl.

Reasons high multiple stocks are tanking :

1.) Fed raising rates, worries about inflation
2.) Stocks are selling at multiples greater than 2X growth
3.) Are already priced for perfection , can rarely not disappoint
4.) Analysts know they must beat estimates by a lot
5.) Once they start to sell institutions drop them like a hot potato

Xethanol XNL :AMEX claims to have the ability to produce large quantities of ethanol from wood chips , corn stalks , and paper sludge. Production has been almost non-existant so far. All inquiries are met with an "that's confidential information" answer.

8 of XNL largest shareholders were former stockbrokers disciplined by the SEC and Natl. Ass. of Securities Dealers amongst others

XNL chairman and CEO claims global senior corporate executive experience with at least 2 companies that have never heard of him

One of it's 2 plants has been idle over a year and has no water or sewer facilities operating

They have no scientists on staff, spend little on R&D , and have suspicious ties with questionable companies closely alligned with officers of XNL. Sounds strangely familiar.

They have O inventory, have bought back 8% of outstanding shares and sales are up 14.9%. VCLK has bought back 6.9% shares.

IACI has spun off a bad travel subsidiary. They also promoted Barry Diller to a position where he can't hurt the company with bad public relations.

Fast food companies. BKC screwed up their IPO by missing the first quarter numbers after IPO. They are not innovative and are in a saturated market. WEN is better but ruined a potential winner that could have rivaled McDonalds Chipotle. MCD does 50% of their business outside the US with 5% growth internationally and actually does well when the dollar falls.

Monsanto MON is a misunderstood company hated by Wall Street. They bioengineer corn and soybean seeds so they are actually a biotech company. They will grow approx. 25.4% next year and corner the market in improving corn seed (ethanol) and more importantly soybean seed (biodeisel).

Buy a cereal stock. K or GIS are both good in this market. Grain prices have little to do with cereal price per box. Only .33 per box is grain cost. That's about 11%. Brand loyalty makes people pay 50% more than generic for essentially the same product.

People have been avoiding big drug stocks , but in reality they are outperforming cyclicals as funds are quietly moving out of oil and manufacturing into big pharma.

Past earnings analyzation aren't of great importance with these stocks, what's in the pipeline is the important thing. Look for great current drugs or blockbuster new developments and good patent protection. The best are :

SGP--excellent cholesterol and rheumatoid arthritis drugs

LLY-- tops in diabetes and anti-depression drugs

Geez Doug,
The one day I don't check them out. This is a classic report. Stocklemon is one dude (or company) you don't want to get on the sh#* list of. IIG is burning toast as this is being written. The largest stockholder of IIG is quoted " I have never seen a fraud discovered in advance" and stocklemon tells him to read their site. I'm not going to copy their report but will put some quotes at the bottom of this thread for a few days.

Use KKD as an example for bad things to look for in a stock. Cramer says buying KKD now is worse than buying a lottery ticket. Here's some highlights.

1. so messed up they can't file financial statements
2. CFO COO both quit within 9 months of each other
3. accounting irregularities going way back
4. terrible trajectory of chart

Stocklemon wants to expose IIG as not a best of breed software company as they claim but a "business opportunity seller". You can't buy their software from company headquarters or from their website, but only when attending seminars. An invitation to a seminar obtained by stocklemon never mentions the name of the company or their product but contains the following words : Free--26 times , Income,Wealth, Make Money,Cold Hard Cash--15 times , Profit--8 times , Tycoon--3 times.

If IIG is a "business opportunity" and not a software company they are required by the FTC and the Utah Attorney General to disclose the % of business success achieved by their attendees to potential customers before they pay for seminars. IIG trades on the AMEX closing today @13.42

Cramer 9/18/06

Finding a decent spinoff with good fundies that can attract takeover bids. FSL was spun off by MOT and was not liked by the market. Recently, chips are getting back into favor and FSL was bid up 30% by private equity group. Two others that actually are better than FSL with more cash are ATHR and BRCM. Ugly duckling spinoffs that look promising are VRGY and NVL. New IPO's usually are required a 2 year period before being acquired. NVL could be taken over in 3 months, VRGY perhaps 18 months, but both should appreciate in value even if they remain independent.

Cramer 9/25/06

Lessons to be learned from collapse of the Amaranth Hedge Fund. Amaranth lost 6 billion in 2 days mostly due to drop in natural gas prices.

1. If you are having wild swings in portfolio value month to month or quarter to quarter, something is out of whack
2. These guys took on too much margin debt. some reports say 9-1 ratio
3. They thought they knew more than the market and could corner the mkt. on natl. gas
4. They didn't diversify, were way overloaded in energy
5. Money manager was very young without a proven track record
6. They didn't think their "professionals" could be wrong
7. The individual can outperform the "professional"
8. Don't bet on something unpredictable such as the weather
9. Do your homework or you are gambling , not investing
10.Never fall in love with a stock take some profits off the table
11.A good money manager can make $$ in both good and bad markets

Cramer relived his greatest mistakes such as losing 17 million in Cendant (CD) while on vacation. Things to avoid :

Sell immediately when accounting irregularities are announced. It won't get better even if you love the stock.

Never buy anticipating great earnings.

Don't buy if your stock is affected by anticipated good or bad weather.

Be wary of statements from CEO's and company officials especially close to earnings announcements.

Don't buy Cramer's picks without doing your own research.

Before listening to conference calls, get all the information you can about expected sales, gross margins, profits. See how they compare to actual figures.

When listening to conference calls , notice if CFO's are prepared and answer questions quickly and appear to know their material. See how well they respond to bearish questions. Best possible case is when earnings estimates are exceeded and guidance is raised. JNJ recently released earnings and the stock did nothing. After a masterful conference call , the critics were speechless and the stock rose 4 points. They had all the answers and boasted of new products that were selling well.

The scariest stock to own in Cramer's opinion is HANS. Cramer did a blind taste test and couldn't tell the difference between HANS and anything else. Therefore, he claims it is a regular drink in a premium container being marketed as a superior beverage. They have only 290 full time employees and are being inundated with energy drink competition in a fad that could collapse at any time and has lost it's momentum. It's just a matter of time before the medical community attacks these caffeine loaded drinks. HANS dropped 26% when it came up short last earnings report and it will be much worse next time. They got no bounce when added to the S&P 400, a bad sign.

yep...been wondering when he would make a re-appearance. The co. is due to report next week so it should be a very volatile week for that stock. Keep in mind what happened the last time they had a conference call...the stock gapped up big and then crapped bigger. But it's also one of the most bullish charts I've seen in a long time and the company has squeezed the crap out of the shorts...that's their business plan in a nutshell...to play games with their stock price and try to stay one step ahead of trouble.

Lastly, this is why many companies trade on the amex...they can get away with not reporting earnings for years. Last time I checked, iig still didn't have an updated sec filing.

Stocklemon : another update on IIG. Funny things are happening at IIG as explained in their conference call Tuesday. They reported bringing in 3 million in cash from their seminars. Normally they don't hold seminars on the final 3 days of a quarter because it skews earnings since there is a 3 day cancellation option for buyers. However, IIG held 18 seminars Sept. 28-30 that netted them 1.54mil cash which happened to make more profit than the other 225 seminars in the quarter (1.46 mil.) Could it be because the cancellations weren't taken into account ? Stocklemon says any way the cards are stacked, the house will eventually collapse. IIG closed down .01 @ 18.96 today.

I wonder how much IBD makes on their seminars? I've always thought that IBD should offer a lot of low cost seminars...Say $49.95. I'll bet it would pay off in spades as far as getting subscribers...I'd assume that 99% of those that go to their $179 to $7,000 seminars are already subscribers.

These low cost seminars could be maybe 3 hours with about 100 people...That's 5 grand...Room rental $1,500...I'd be the instructor for FREE ...They could just pay me $50 for each attendee that subscribed to the paper and $100 for each Dailygraphs subscriber.

:cramersmiley: Cramer added that given the huge amounts of cash sloshing around the market, "There is such a supply shortage" when it comes to good stocks. "All the managements I know think stocks are undervalued," he added. "So many companies want to buy other companies."

That's it. I'm calling a market top right here- at least a correction to 10-15% below today's S&P price should occur within the next year. You just know that when Cramer gets going like this, and the foaming at the mouth starts, and he's screaming for everyone to buy stocks... that's just when it's all about to head south.

Cramer 11/22/06

Cramer talks about becoming a good speculator.

Don't speculate on bulletin board or pink sheet stocks. Assume any stock under $1 is run by criminals. Only speculate with $$ you can afford to lose. Never use retirement accounts. Don't speculate in currencies. Cramer once lost 500k while on a trip to Burger King. Currency prices can move too fast. Look for a good balance sheet, a good or unique product, and a tight float (few shares actively trading). Get out when volume indicates massive selling.
The sweet spot for speculative stocks is between 2 and 10 dollars per share.


10 attributes of bad speculators

1. sells stock as soon as it goes down a little
2. they hold stocks that continue to drop for several sessions
3. they sell as soon as they get a 5% or 10% gain
4. they buy worst of breed thinking it's cheap
5. they believe all the hype , press releases etc.
6. they assume any stock under $10 is a takeover target
7. they sell everything into strength instead of selling a little
8. they become impatient with a non moving stock
9. they daytrade for a few pennies
10.they shy away from stocks they've never heard of , would rather buy on the buzz and look to the crowd for validation

Always buy in increments and don't be afraid to chase momentum. Don't hold forever, you can lose everything. Most decent stocks eventually have a few days in the sun.

Cramer looks for speculative stocks in IBD's NASDAQ listings. One of the few publications that posts charts of lesser priced stocks.
Another good way to find fundamentally sound speculative stocks is by finding out what regional brokers are pushing.

Likes: STZ DEO SBUX WMI TRMP LMC WLT LVLT SQM HAS

Hates: HP AA PKTR SUP ASD WFMI

Cramer likes MO PG HAL because of the falling dollar. These companies do most of their business outside of the U.S. and any guidance was based on a higher dollar value.

Cramer is crazy over SQM of Chile. They produce Lithium , Iodine, and lots of fertilizer. Underpriced by 30% based on earnings alone and it is a probable takeover target.

Cramer 11/28/06

Likes: AGN PMTI COF MA BCR SHLD TWX MRVL URS GLW AIG GOOG LOW

Hates: OVTI ICGE SQI TIVO PLT

AGN is a great triple play stock over $100/share but underpriced offering the big 3 of Botox, clear skin, and silicon breast implants.


Cramer praises analyst David Strasser who upgraded LOW despite all other analysts dising it. Strasser admits fundies haven't bottomed but it doesn't matter since stock is so cheap. Strasser is rare in that he considers intangibles and sees a risk reward of 4 pts. down and 12 up. Strasser comes from a hedge fund background and believes that past and present p/e multiples say LOW is going higher.

Cramer loves COF. It benefits from the falling dollar, mounting credit card debt, and possible interest rate cuts. It appears to be very undervalued.

LIKES: XOM BTU BA GOOG CSCO AAPL RIMM MRVL UNH JNJ TM HAL RY

HATES: PALM BKC PIR GM HEES SUNH ARNA CMI

XOM is spending more on stock buyback than it is on drilling 20bill. vs. 15bill. first 9 months this year. It's become a core holding for mutual funds as they want to have some oil to show investors but are uncertain of the direction oil is going. XOM is the oil stock that is least exposed to price swings of oil. As mutual funds scurry to buy full positions it should hit 100 by year's end. Cramer hates the XOM business but says you have to own the stock as it has been annointed as "the one", a core holding, by mutual funds. Sell at year's end.

Market Mechanics--Mutual funds control market capital. Irrational market behavior is caused by irrational fund managers. This mostly effects short term holdings. Many times big market drops are no more than the result of funds selling to lock in gains.

Cramer 12/26/06

4 of Cramer's investing rules

1. There's a market for everything somewhere. Look to subgroups and try to determine demand for hot item as well as supply. In 2005 and early '06 there was a lot of hype about ethanol and few companies that could supply it or components to transport it. This made ANDE and ADM monsters in the field until everybody got into the game. This also can be applied to supply of IPO's at any short time period. A glut of IPO's hurts them all initially. Incidentally, Cramer says he's suspicious of all IPO information services before they go public.

2. When playing a rally don't assume it includes the entire sector. Look for the hot industries within each sector.

3. Latin American stocks should always be treated as trades and not investments, regardless of the hype from institutions. They will dump Latin American stocks in an instant when their money is made even while saying they are good long term. Fundamentals mean little with these stocks.

4. Sometimes you must become part of the herd and not try to be creative. Goal is to make money, not to become one of a kind.

-------billyjoe

[riverbabe]

2. When playing a rally don't assume it includes the entire sector. Look for the hot industries within each sector.
-------billyjoe

Better yet, look at the entire sector, look for the hot industries, then look at the stocks within the industries. Look for a hot long and look for a hot short within the same industry. (Think Toyota and Ford/GM). That way you take the market, the sector and the industry out of the investing equation. (Learned that at AAII).

[billyjoe]

Cramer 12/27/06

More Cramerisms :

Buy and hold is bad for capitalists. Mad Money says '"buy and homework"

Have no investing regrets. Don't dwell on the past. Don't allow mistakes to effect your confidence.

Tips are for waiters and suckers.

Stay diversified even when tempted to plunge whole hog into a great sector.

Suppress your instincts. They will work against investing success.

Buy in increments, not all at once. Be patient

-------------billyjoe

[billyjoe]

Cramer 12/28/06

5 of Cramer's Rules

1. Don't own cyclical stocks when the market is bullish. Don't own secular growth stocks when market is bearish. Fundamentals don't matter much in a bad economy. Don't fight the business cycle, the money managers won't.

2. Analysts are never bullish enough about good stocks or bearish enough about bad stocks.

3. Don't be a snob and be only interested in high end stocks. Find good ones before the analysts.

4. If a stock is being heavily shorted and hyped at the same time, stay away from it.

5. Don't let success in one sector go to your head. All stocks in the sector aren't equal. If you become overconfident and expect success in any sector you choose, you'll get burned.

Will be posted at Stocklemon later:

Stocklemon takes a Dive into Ocean Bio-Chem (NASDAQ:OBCI)

The New Year begins with the bubbly getting popped over this tiny supplier of cleaners and polish for cars and boats.

A near-dormant dollar stock for years, is Ocean Bio-Chem the guest at a spontaneous market party on improving fortunes, or is it?

It started in November, when OBCI put out a PR touting a "profit jump" of over $1 million on a sales increase of just $1.8m year over year for the quarter.

http://biz.yahoo.com/iw/061114/0184307.html (http://biz.yahoo.com/iw/061114/0184307.html) . The stock tripled in a day.



Strangely, the word "receivables" never appears in the PR or the numbers cited. Yet the 10-Q shows an eye-popping increase in receivables of from 2.0 million to over $5.5 million, only half of which can be attributed to the much discussed inventory drawdown. Of more concern, cash is down consistently all year, now to a paltry $91,000.

On January 10, the company issued an 8-K promising more shipments to Walmart. Is this a great research find by savvy traders, or a setup by the company? Why no PR? Stocklemon suggests that Walmart had to approve, and they wouldn't allow it.

Meanwhile, as frenzied daytraders drive the stock towards $6, maybe they ought to look who's really going to profit from a juicy new price: CEO Peter G Dornau. Dornau provided a "revolving credit facility" to the company of $1.5 million, for which he receives 1 million warrants at about a dollar, and the right to convert the entire debt to shares at a buck. This could grant him 2.5 million shares - a $10 million dollar payday on a 1.5 million dollar loan!

Notice he converted in the same press release with the alleged inflated earnings.

It will take 15 quarters of profits equal to the "great quarter" of September just to pay off this bonanza!

With a fresh stack of "Form 4's" filed last night, and a two week old S-8 registration, yesterday's party begins to smell carefully orchestrated, rather than a spontaneous celebration of a small company that made it bigtime.

Stocklemon eagerly awaits Wal-Mart's comment.

Cautious investing to all.

Never heard of the guy. Maybe I just don't recall 'er I'm getting up in years.

OK I'll admit I still watch. I'd advise anyone to observe his recommendations closely for a couple months before taking action unless he alerts you to something terrible about a stock you're holding. Sometimes he'll give a "buy" signal to a caller just because he can't think of anything bad to say about a stock and has to say something. He's often correct about equities he mentions as being in his action alerts charitable trust. booyahboyaudit.com claims his track record to be over 50% correct for the past 2 years. He also admits his failures periodically which is more than I can say for most of the other pundits. Be cautious and do research before buying anything.

At the beginning of the year, Cramer had a three show special while you were in the hospital, billyjoe. In these shows, he highlighted his picks for the year for value, growth, and speculative stocks. I took notes and wrote down the prices for the following day on his picks. Here are the results to date:

it should at least end him up in court. (civil/criminal/both)

but his career as a clown? it may just end up helping him- look at Martha Stewart... remember- no publicity is bad publicity (if you're like that).

Now, I read Barry's "Clean Sweep"...Not bad for an elementary school level...Interesting to know what he did...But he never reveals "HOW" he did it.

According to the Best to Worst performance rating picks of Cramer's stocks since 7/28/05, 836 have gained, 347 have lost, and 458 have appreciated more than 15%. The pricing starts the first day he recommends the stock on his show and ends the first day he says sell or continues to the present time if no sell is mentioned.

Doug,
HSOA did jump off your list and tried to punch my eye. It was my biggest % gainer at 119% (14.05 on 5/23/06). I don't think it ever got that high again.

Was thinking about going to the next foreclosure sale at the county courthouse. At the ones I went to last year the banks were still buying houses back at more than they were worth. I'll bet it's different this time.

Different areas of the country are in different stages...But overall I'd say it is a little early to catch the best deals.

Think of the RE market as a Cup w/ Handle pattern...We are forming the handle...Wait for the Pivot Window to start...Heck!!!...You invented it (Pivot Window)...However, think of WON...Jiler discovered the pattern...But WON popularized it...Think of me as WON and you as Jiler regarding the Pivot Window term...Thanks...I owe 'ya one

U.S. sales of existing homes fell 3.8% in June to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 5.75 million, the lowest rate since November 2002, the National Association of Realtors reported Wednesday. Sales in June were down 11.4% from June 2006. Inventories of unsold homes on the market fell by 180,000, or 4.2%, to 4.20 million, representing a 8.8-month supply at the June sales rate. The months' supply was also 8.8 months in May, the highest since 1992. The median sales price was $230,100, up 0.3% since June 2006. It's the first time in 11 months that median sales prices did not fall compared with a year earlier

Peanuts,
MO is actually up despite the price. It spun off Kraft foods which lowered MO's price. Actually gaining around 30% if you factor in the spinoff. I've owned it since 10/9/06. KFT was worth over 30 a share when I sold in April '07. MO is set to spin off into Phillip Morris Europe this year and keep the North American MO. Also pays a nice 3.95% div.

That's one smart guy! Wonder how many people will actually do it! I just never watch him (Cramer). For a while it was a giggle watching the AF market do flip-flops when he mentioned a stock. Then I found out he is wrong about 50% of the time, just like the rest of us (or like me anyway). So, like I said, I never watch him. My BSC call in POTW came from other news sources that made me suspect what would happen. But I had to think for myself. Much better than letting the ******* do my thinking for me. Thanks for today's giggle, Peanut. LOL River
