Washington Mutual may have rebounded from last week’s bear raid, thanks to a potential $5 billion capital infusion, but Cramer’s “skeptical.”

The Mad Money host is reserving judgment until the WaMu [WM  Loading...      ()   ] deal’s finalized – and investors see the terms, he said.

Switching to all the Microsoft [MSFT  Loading...      ()   ]-Yahoo! [YHOO  Loading...      ()   ] talk, Cramer wanted any doubtful viewers to know that CEO Steve Ballmer “has never postured in his life.” If he’s talking about a hostile takeover, he means it.

Starwood Hotels [HOT  Loading...      ()   ] plans to open 54 new hotels and add 20,000 new rooms by 2009, the company announced. About $1 billion will go into renovating existing hotels. That’s not enough to squeeze a recommendation out of Cramer, though.

“I don't want to be in the group,” he said during Monday’s Stop Trading!, “and I don't want to own the stock.”

Lastly, Cramer named Alcoa [AA  Loading...      ()   ] his “least favorite minerals stock.” Cleveland-Cliffs [CLF  Loading...      ()   ], which he recommended at $70 and is now at $140, is a better choice.

“I prefer Cleveland Cliffs at $140 than I do Alcoa at $37,” he said. “Can I be more adamant than that?”
