Mad Mail: Time to Sell Natural-Gas Stocks?

Hey Jim: Over the past few weeks, you have been focusing on natural gas prices and the potential upside over the next few years. I agree, however I think much of this expected upward movement in natural gas is already reflected in a lot of the natural gas stocks. Over the last few months, companies like Apache [APA  Loading...      ()   ] have moved steadily higher while the price of the commodity has gone down…I think the market has already priced in these expected higher moves in the commodity and I have been lightening up on my APA position. What do you think? --Jonathan in Atlanta

Cramer says: “Nobody ever got hurt taking a profit. Lightening up on APA after that remarkable run, it makes sense … Later this week, I will tell you [where] I think you should be with Apache and some others. But I respect the fact that you have a big gain. I don’t want you to give it back.”

Mr. Cramer!: I am a new investor just out of college and love the show! Do you think I should sell Walmart [WMT  Loading...      ()   ] and pick up CVS Caremark [CVS  Loading...      ()   ] for the upcoming swine flu season? I realize that you are very busy, but if you get a chance to respond I would really appreciate it. Thanks! --Alex at Purdue University

Cramer says: “I am never too busy to talk stocks … the answer is, yes, I like that idea. I think the drug stores are great swine-flu plays, and I think Walmart is stuck in the mud right now, as much as I think it’s a great company. Make that switch, Alex. I think it’s a good one.”
