See all Lightning Round Posts
Palomar Medical [PMTI  Loading...      ()   ]: Even though PMTI has come down a lot, Cramer thinks that Syneron Medical [ELOS  Loading...      ()   ] has the best future ahead of it.

Headwaters [HW  Loading...      ()   ]: Cramer covered a lot of green companies last week, but HW wasn’t one of them. He’d rather see Home Gamers in FuelCell Energy [FCEL  Loading...      ()   ].

Ecolab [ECL  Loading...      ()   ]: “I like Ecolab … but the stock’s had a big run.” Cramer suggests Chemed [CHE  Loading...      ()   ] instead, which is still nine points off its high.

Time Warner [TWX  Loading...      ()   ]: Cramer likes the cable industry on the whole, and TWX is no exception – though he thinks the company would be worth more if it were broken up. Even still, Comcast [CMCSA  Loading...      ()   ] is his favorite right now.

Plexus [PLXS  Loading...      ()   ]: Avnet [AVT  Loading...      ()   ] and Texas Instruments [TXN  Loading...      ()   ] are winners, but Plexus is not, Cramer says.

Novastar Financial [NFI  Loading...      ()   ]: Cramer says this is a tough call. The stock has potential, but there are dangers inherent in owning it. Better do your homework before you make a move.

Gorman Rupp [GRC  Loading...      ()   ]: Cramer likes GRC. He’s bullish on this stock.

Onyx Pharmaceuticals [ONXX  Loading...      ()   ]: “I think at $27 it’s still a buy.”

General Dynamics [GD  Loading...      ()   ]: “How much do I like the defense contractors?” Cramer calls these stocks bulletproof. No matter how much they mess up, they just keep going higher.

Hercules Offshore [HERO  Loading...      ()   ]: Cramer thinks this stock is undervalued, and Home Gamers should back up the truck. This stock’s a buy.

Simcere Pharma [SCR  Loading...      ()   ]: This stock, a China play, is too dangerous for Cramer’s tastes. He’d ring the register and take the gain.

Hornbeck Offshore [HOS  Loading...      ()   ]: Cramer has been upgrading domestic drillers like HOS slowly but surely. He thinks they’ve reached their bottom.

News Corp [NWS  Loading...      ()   ]: “I think News Corp. is inexpensive. I think it is well run. I think I’m going to get fired for saying anything more that’s good.”

Six Flags [SIX  Loading...      ()   ]: Another inexpensive stock. Cramer’s bullish on SIX.

Electronic Arts [ERTS  Loading...      ()   ]: “I think you gotta own ERTS. I think it’s a good long-term stock.”

Wells Fargo [WFC  Loading...      ()   ]: Cramer recommends Goldman Sachs [GS  Loading...      ()   ] over WFC.

Travelzoo [TZOO  Loading...      ()   ]: Too risky, Cramer says. “Expedia’s better.”
