Jim Cramer's Stop Trading! Stock Picks and Comments, April 4

Recap of Jim Cramer’s comments on Stop Trading! Wednesday April 4. Click on a stock ticker for more analysis:

Lundin (LMC) and Rio (RIO): Cramer would buy nickle miners LMC and RIO because, according to the Baltic Dry Index, there is no economic slowdown. He expects international growth, especially in China, to be beneficial for nickel as well as copper and zinc. Cramer notes that LMC is putting together an "unbelievable group of properties that will dominate minerals in Europe" and says he doesn' t understand why LMC hasn't been bought. Cramer thinks it has been hovering around $10 to $12 for too long and is "busting out."

Washington Mutual (WM): Cramer suggests staying away from tech which he feels is as troubled as housing. Although he feels WM has sloppy lending practices, Cramer likes it a bit better than its rivals because of its large deposit base. He likes its 5.5 % yield but does not like the way subprime has been creeping up. Although he feels WM has been overdone to the downside, he cautions investors to watch out for charges for bad mortgages.
