I Prefer Eaton - Cramer's Lightning Round (10/22/08)

Stocks discussed in the lightning round session of Jim Cramer’s Mad Money TV program, Wednesday, October 22.

Bullish Calls:

Eaton (ETN) -- “I prefer Eaton to Ameteck and Roper Industries.”

Bearish Calls:

Dillard’s (DDS) -- "No, no, no, no. That one is way too speculative. They have let their stores go and I don't want to touch it. Sell, sell, sell."
Roper Industries (ROP) -- "This doesn’t have good dividend and the near term does not look good. I prefer Eaton."
Polaris Industries (PII) -- "They are a really well run company, but ATVs are starting to smell discretionary to me, so that one is a don't buy."
Genworth Financial (GNW) -- "Genworth is an extremely speculative stock. I'd be cautious there."
South Jersey Industries -- (SJI) -- "In this environment, non-regulated utilities are risky. I'm again going to send you to Duke Energy (DUK) for better long term performance."
Ametek (AME) -- “They're a great company, but they're levered to gross domestic product and GDP is declining. They are not good in this environment. I prefer Eaton.”
