Jim Cramer's Mad Money Lightning Round Picks, April 25

Miriam Metzinger submits: Stocks discussed in the lightning round session of Jim Cramer’s Mad Money TV program, Wednesday April 25. Click on a stock ticker for more analysis:

Bullish calls:

Apple (AAPL): 'I said, at $85 and change it was anointed. It's up $8....because they indeed blew away the numbers.'
Savient Pharmaceuticals (SVNT): ' ... still like it as much as I did at the beginning of the year. I like their uric acid product. I'm not backing away.'
BioMarin Phramaceutical (BMRN):' I know people were disappointed in that last quarter. I think it's a mistake. BMRN is a good biotech stock, and a takeover target.'
AT&T (T)
State Street (STT): 'I think that the mutual fund clearing business is a great business, a great way to participate in this rally. STT is a thumb and a half up.'
Pozen (POZN): 'They get that migraine stuff... I mean, this company... There are so many ways to win.'
Nastech Pharmaceutical (NSTK): ' ... we identified at $10 and it went to $13.50. I'm going to join you on the buy side there. I think you're in good shape. Buy, buy, buy!'
Burger King (BKC): ... it's been on fire. BKC is a reformed, better outfit. It's really good ... easily, easily going up to $26-$27.'
McDonald's (MCD)
Parker-Hannifin (PH): 'Do not lose heart! That was a beautiful quarter. They will find it ... Even though it's been up a lot in the last year... you say I want some PH, and then you get the stampede. That stock is going to $100.'
Tellabs (TLAB): 'Quite frankly, I thought the stock should have been single digits after that call ... I smell merger. I smell buyout. I smell takeout. Sit with your TLAB. I think something good is going to happen.'
Thermo Fisher Scientific (TMO): Have much have we liked TMO?... 52-week-high? No, no. More ahead. $50 goes to $60, TMO!'
Trinity Industries (TRN):
Charter Communications (CHTR): 'CHTR's minding its own business, going higher ... CHTR, it reports May 2nd. I like the stock very much.'

Bearish calls:

MetroPCS Communications (PCS): 'Let's not be too greedy. That stock has had a run. The other ones haven't. I'd actually be more conservative.'
Simon Property Group (SPG): 'Let that one come in. The commercial real estate market has had a great run. It's not where I want to be right now.'
XM Satellite Radio (XMSR): 'No. That's a bleeding contest. That's one of those where you're darned if you do and darned if you don't. The congress won't let these two companies merge.'

Cramer can keep on touting 'NSTK' all he wants come May 7th will be the realization of this stock, EARNINGS.
This year is full of bad earnings reports for 'nstk' and the only bright note is Cramer to date.
25 past years performance is indication of how really good this company is and it has set the path for its future
by past history repeating itself. Another words save your money and invest in better companies with FDA approvals,patents,earn... and tremendous pipelines. Lastly most of them are equal in price or cheaper than 'nstk'.
Any stock can go up for a time but then it must adjust downward, and since the earning report is coming, you probably will see a $12 dollar stock price as sure as Cramer is on each weekday night!

I can not believe this stock is still above $13 dollars.
Water seeks its level and so will nstk.
This stock in my opinion has to be the worst investment anyone with intelligence could possibly invest in.
If Peter Lynch, and 11 other well reputable people were to have a debate with Cramer regarding 'nstk', I think Cramer would find the rest of his hair on the ground when they would get done with him.
I like Cramer and his show is interesting and it does make you think, but sometimes when he comes up with a stock with a track record like 'nstk' s after 25 years you may think, what is he crazy?
Do investors just buy anything he touts without investigating the companies financial background and past performances? And the pipeline resembles an exhaust pipe of a car, that's not a pipeline. this stock belongs at $3-$5 dollars per share until they prove something.
