JPMorgan Chase[JPM Loading... () ]: “Jamie Dimon’s best in show. This is a bank that is so on its game!” Cramer also said that once Chairman and CEO Chuck Prince gets his act together, Citigroup could go to $60.

Jones Soda [JSDA Loading... () ]: “We are not pulling the trigger right now. Why? There’s too much hot money in Jones.”

Melco PBL Entertainment [MPEL Loading... () ]: This stock has been a let down for Cramer. He can’t get behind it.

Kookmin Bank [KB Loading... () ]: “You have hit a winner!” Kookmin’s a good growth story and it has a 4% dividend. “I say Kookmin is still a buy.”

Johnson & Johnson [JNJ Loading... () ]: Cramer says it’s up only because Warren Buffett has been buying the stock, but the company isn’t worth owning. He suggests using the present strength to sell.

Gold Star Resources [GSS Loading... () ]: Gold has been trading in up and down recently, Cramer says, and it’s on the down side now. He thinks this is a buy-in opportunity. GSS is a spec play, but Cramer’s also a fan of Yumana and Kinross.

Syntax-Brillian [BRLC Loading... () ]: “I think you should sell it now.”

National Oilwell Varco [NOV Loading... () ]: Cramer would schnitzel a bit, but he thinks the stock is going higher.

Raytheon [RTN Loading... () ]: A cheap stock with a CEO Cramer thinks is doing great things for the business. “I like Raytheon to go to $60.”

Superior Energy [SPN Loading... () ]: Cramer likes SPN, but he’s more enthusiastic about Halliburton.

New York Mercantile [NYM Loading... () ]: “I like the Merc very much. It’s great.”

Volcano [VOLC Loading... () ]: “I think Volcano is a terrific play…but remember: It is not Zimmer, which we like even more.”

Monster Worldwide [MNST Loading... () ]: A newspaper company should wake up and buy this company, Cramer says, so it can lock down the classifieds business before Google gets a hold of it. He’d stick with MNST.

Jim’s charitable trust owns Citigroup and Halliburton.
