Full Company Name & Jim's Comments:

DNDN

24.54

Dendreon Corp. (DNDN)


Jim:   Dendreon has moved a lot… and you can say, wait a second Jim you did not tell us to buy it… so who are to tell us that it has moved a lot… all I can tell you is that this is a stock that got some good news from the FDA… everyone is really crazy about it… I would prefer it to come in… but then again, I always disclose when I get something right… I did not think that Dendreon would get approval, it got approval… it is up too much for me… you make your own judgment.

GOOG

407.35

Google, Inc. (GOOG)


Jim:   Okay, remember it is just a company… we cannot love it… it is just a piece of paper, we do not care where you bought it… but we do not want you to be greedy… I have to tell you, I have had this kind of epiphany in the last few weeks as I like Google and I think the quarter is good… but every time I type in some wrong page on the internet, I am immediately brought to Bing by the worldwide conspiracy that is Microsoft (MSFT)… and it is so brilliant that Microsoft did this, that I find myself using Bing… and I cannot bet that I am the only one that is having that happen… I think that the mind share is going toward Bing… and that is hurting Google stock… although I still think that Google will have a good quarter.

SBUX

13.71

Starbucks Corp. (SBUX)


Jim:   I do not want to buy it yet… but my problem is that McDonald's (MCD*) is there, McDonald’s is very aggressive and I like that stock… and I do not think that the turn is complete yet at Starbucks… we still have some time to get into that stock.

MCD*

57.20

McDonald's (MCD*)

MCD*

*Note:  McDonald's is a key holding in Jim Cramer's Charitable Trust Portfolio, which you can see here>. 

PCLN

106.79

Priceline.com Inc. (PCLN)


Jim:   Last couple of quarters have been monster good but the stock is a wild roller coaster… I think that it is too difficult to recommend to my audience in Mad Money… just too hard.

CWTR

5.47

Coldwater Creek Inc. (CWTR)


Jim:   It has got a new CEO.. I think that it is doing a lot of right things… but there are a tremendous number of retail stocks that are making a turn here that I like even more… so I cannot recommend Coldwater… look if you want to go along those lines of turned ones, the one that I still like is Urban Outfitters (URBN)… but I am not recommending any retail at all in this market… because that is the most difficult segment… I think we will get a better summer… but you know, retail, just too hard to own.

URBN

20.47

Urban Outfitters (URBN)

URBN

Full Company Name & Jim's Comments:

MDRX

14.38

Allscripts Healthcare Solutions Inc. (MDRX)
 

Jim:    People are saying that this is the single most logical Obama play. I've been trying to do others. Obama is about taking out the excess cost in the system. That's what they're about. I think it's a winner. I know it's up that huge amount... We ought to have that CEO back, that guy we have on all the time... none of those other shows can touch 'em...

HXL

9.43

Hexcel Corp. (HXL)
 

Jim:    Yeah, it has (been taking a beating)... Well, let's go back... I've been reading the message boards, where they want to shoot me, or kill me, or find me, or beat me... I mean, the latest one that I've done wrong is that I said I got it wrong when it went $48... was Boeing (BA)... I had no idea, nor did anyone else in the world, that this Boeing Dreamliner 787 wasn't going to fly. Of course, it is my fault... Hexcel is part of the Boeing family and, therefore, it's going to have delayed earnings... I believe, because Boeing can't build it... Once again, I read the message boards... Why can't Boeing build the Dreamliner?... Cramer!

FO

33.71

Fortune Brands (FO)
 

Jim:    I personally think that Fortune Brands is probably 3-4 points overvalued. I think the quarter's going to be bad again. Why is that?... besides Cramer... I feel that what is happening there is that the pastiche of businesses is not working this time... The golf thing's not working... oh finally, that U.S. Open thing ended... can you believe how much ink that was wasted on?... The Jim Beam division... people aren't going out and spending a lot of money on wine... You've got the housing business that has not turned yet... just the stability in housing... not the new housing units... We got some new housing numbers today... remember, we don't care about that on Mad Money... we care about existing homes... But all of this bodes poorly for Fortune Brands, FO... Uh uh, I'm not pulling the trigger!

CENX

5.99

Century Aluminum Co. (CENX)
 

Jim:    You know what I'm going to have to do? I'm going to have to do work on Century Aluminum... I'll tell you why... It kind of dropped off my radar screen when it went down below $5 bucks... Everyone knows that I can't stand Alcoa, Inc. (AA)... No, we're going to do some work on that before I check off on that thing.

AA

10.21

Alcoa, Inc. (AA)

AA

YUM

32.57

Yum! Brands (YUM)
 

Jim:    I happen to own that stock myself. And why is that? Because I have it for my charitable trust, ActionAlertsPlus.com, because I think the earnings are going to be good. Now there's a big speculation tomorrow that there could be disappointment, because they're changing the name of Pizza Hut to just "Hut"... so they could sneak some other things in there, because people don't think that pizza's doing that well... I think that we should have Mr. Novak on, unless he's already booked on another show... But I remind you that I think YUM is a great long-term situation, even though Rick "Top Gun Trader" Bensignor doesn't like it, and keeps throwing it to me... and it doesn't do anything. I think it's cheap. I think it's a China play... I like YUM. I could have egg all over my face but, remember, if the stock does report a good number, just like the fact that Boeing can't build a Dreamliner... we know who's fault it is... the fault is Cramer...
