Lightning Round: Alcoa, Sears, Celgene and More

Alcoa : “I didn’t like the quarter,” Cramer said. Go with Nucor instead.

Atheros Communication : This is another company whose quarterly earnings disappointed Cramer. Texas Intstruments , Broadcom or Skyworks Solutions are all better picks, he said.

Sears Holdings : The stock has suffered, Cramer said, because the underlying company is levered to first-time homebuyers. And therefore investors abandoned SHLD once the first-time homebuyer tax credit expired. Still, Cramer thinks this one is “down too much” and he thinks it should be bought.

CME Group : CME didn’t get the post-financial-reform bump that many expected, but Cramer urged viewers to stick with this stock. He thinks it’s due for a good 2011.

Baidu.com : Cramer thinks BIDU could go to $90. He said he would reevaluate the stock if and when it gets there.

Celgene : “I like the company very much,” Cramer said, but he recommended taking some profits given the run that CELG has had.

When this story published, Cramer’s charitable trust owned Nucor.
