Lightning Round: CME Group, Solar Capital, SLM and More

CME Group : Although the world of exchanges is "cut throat," Cramer said CME is your best bet. To play it, he recommends deep-in-the-money call options because it gives you protection to the downside.

Solar Capital : Cramer likes this diversified investments company and said he will endorse the stock. He would, however, like to know more about what it actually invests in.

SLM : This stock could go to $20 a share, but Cramer told home gamers not to be greedy. He would take profits now.

Citigroup : The "Mad Money" host remains bearish on the banks, as the U.S. government is "not kind" to financial institutions. He was referring to the Consumer Financial Protection Agency, a regulatory body that will premier in June.

Dell : Cramer congratulated Dell CEO Michael Dell on his company's positive earnings results. Dell's strength shows tech still has a pulse, Cramer said, adding the news also bodes well for Apple .

















When this story was published, Cramer's charitable trust owned Apple.
