Stocks discussed on the Lightning Round session of Jim Cramer's Mad Money TV Program, Wednesday January 23.
Bullish Calls:
Masco (MAS), Fortune Brands (FBHS): "Masco is a good stock. It just spiked. It is one of my favorites. I like Fortune Brands too. I want those two to merge. I would buy Fortune too."
EOG Resources (EOG): "I want you to cut it in half. I am worried. Sell some and let the rest run, and you'll be in terrific shape."
Westar (WR): "I've always liked it. It's sleepy, it's slow, but it's a nice gainer."
Morgan Stanley (MS): "I'd buy 50 here and buy 50 more at $20...it has just spiked, but it is good."
Duke Energy (DUK): "It is an inexpensive stock with a good yield, and it is one of my favorites. I want to buy."
Healthcare Trust of America (HTA): "I like that stock. A lot of people got discouraged. I want you to own that stock."
Isis Pharmaceuticals (ISIS): "Let's stay with Isis for now. Buy more lower. There will be more disappointment."
Genworth (GNW), Travelers (TRV): "I've been watching Genworth for years and it's got its act together. I prefer Travelers."
Bearish Calls:
Nuance Communications (NUAN): "I want management to come on (the show) and rid me of my bias against that, because I have never liked that technology."
