Crowning Coal King

In the wake of Japan's nuclear crisis, coal is getting attention. On Thursday's "Mad Money," Cramer said "coal is king."

Of course, the "Mad Money" host liked coal before Japan encountered problems with its nuclear power plants. In light of the disaster in Japan, though, he thinks nuclear power plants on the drawing board will be scrapped. Operating plants will eventually be decommissioned. In turn, coal and natural gas will need to fill the void.

So what's the trade? Watch the video to see Cramer's best coal plays.
