Cramer's Lightning Round - Exxon Is Safe, but Where's the Yield?

Stocks discussed on the lightning round session of Jim Cramer's Mad Money TV Program, Monday June 15.

Bullish Calls

Cienna (CIEN), Cisco (CSCO)

Bristol Myers (BMY): "If you want to buy a drug company with a good yield, I am going to send you to Bristol-Myers; that it has got a 6% yield and I regard it as being the best one to own… down .39 cents today."

Bearish Calls

Johnson Controls (JCI): "If I had to own something remotely even connected to automobiles whatsoever, which I do not… if some one were to put a gun to my head, immediately first of course I would say take that gun away from me… and then I would buy Johnson Controls… it is the best of a really bad neighborhood."

Commscope (CTV): "Commscope… oh, co-axle cable and stuff… do you know what, if I am going to buy fiber optic cable and high performance stuff, I am going to send you to either CIENA Corp. or I will send you to Cisco."

THQ (THQI): "The gaming business is no more right now. I do not want to touch it."

Exxon Mobil (XOM): "Well, I will tell you that that is probably the safest of the oils... it is not my favorite oil, as a matter of fact I prefer almost everyone that has a 4% yield, or closer to that, so you are not going to get me to recommend it, but no one has ever done badly owning Exxon."

Merck (MRK): "Oh gee, there is really nothing there."
