Apple, Research in Motion and Level 3 are all tech, Cramer said, therefore Jesse is not protected. Cramer thinks Apple and Research in Motion are both going higher, although he prefers AAPL over RIMM.




Helen’s got a telco, a transport, a food company, an aerospace and a drug company. “What’s not to like?” Cramer said. “Well played.”
