Cramer's Lightning Round - Research in Motion Is Just Okay (8/18/09)

Stocks discussed on the lightning round session of Jim Cramer's Mad Money TV Program, Tuesday August 18.

Bullish Calls:

Apple (AAPL): "I think AAPL's data for the smart phones is so explosive, I am going to continue to say buy, buy, buy"

Windstream (WIN): "The CEO (Jeff Gardner) told us that dividend was fine... We're talking about a very large 12% yield... I'd love to get in touch with him again...But, you know, as long as he said it was fine, I got to say it's fine."

Emdeon (EM): "EM happens to be very fit... it's been stalled because obviously the healthcare plan, the healthcare revamp is also seemingly stalled. It doesn't matter. EM has earnings momentum. I would use the weakness to buy it. Remember, I said you could pay up to $18."

Nordic American Tanker (NAT): "Nordic American Tanker is doing better than everyone."

Bearish Calls:

Research in Motion (RIMM): "I personally feel that RIMM is just okay."

Intercontinental Exchange (ICE): " I think it's an important exchange. I think it's okay. But I can't get behind it, I really can't... I'm going to say don't buy... It's a different changed world."

Diana Shipping (DSX): " You take the NAT dividend... I trust it more than DSX."
