Not even the threat of recession, prophesied by one of Wall Street’s biggest CEOs, can keep the market down Monday, Cramer said during Stop Trading!.

JPMorgan Chase’s [JPM  Loading...      ()   ] Jamie Dimon, speaking to investors today, said that while the credit crisis is mostly over, a major downturn in the economy might be just beginning. Still, the Dow was up about 140 points with an hour left in the trading day.

“This is a day where the tape is being colored by bulls,” Cramer said, pointing to stocks like MBIA [MBI  Loading...      ()   ] and FedEx [FDX  Loading...      ()   ], which were up despite bad news. 

“What does it take to knock down a stock on a day like today?” he asked. “You have to what, pre-announce 30% down? This is remarkable action.”

Tech sector leaders Apple [AAPL  Loading...      ()   ] and Research in Motion [RIMM  Loading...      ()   ] and financial leader Mastercard [MA  Loading...      ()   ] can all be bought, Cramer said.

So can retailers like TJX [TJX  Loading...      ()   ], VF Corp. [VFC  Loading...      ()   ] and Costco [COST  Loading...      ()   ], he continued. Cramer was revising his call on the sector after last week’s same-store sales numbers.

“I was too negative about all of retail last week,” he said. “There are some players I think are going to come through.”
