Stocks discussed in the lightning round session of Jim Cramer’s Mad Money TV program, Thursday January 31. Click on a stock ticker for more analysis:

Bullish calls:

Goodrich (GR): 'They've [Boeing] got supplier problems, and that is going to hurt GR too, but we did hear from Honeywell not to worry, so I'll pull the trigger on GR, even though it wasn't up today.'
Corning (GLW): 'GLW rocks. Two upside pre-announcements. It's for me.'
Caterpillar (CAT): ' I don't deserve to tell you (about CAT), because you know why?... I sold CAT before this run … I messed up on CAT and I hurt people, and I hurt myself, and I think it's going higher!'
ING Group (ING): 'ING's a difficult stock... Because the actual numbers there are not that great. I do like their online strategy. I'm attracted by their yield, which is 5% … But my take is, it's a bank. The worst is over. Really well-run. I'll pull the trigger on ING.'
Mosaic (MOS): 'Not as much (bullish) as I was. This ag group has had a major run…They're really good for a 3-5 year period.'

Bearish calls:

Excel Maritime (EXM): 'Let it lift up a little... I think you can lift it, but then you've got to lighten up... sell, sell, sell … that group is overvalued.'
Rubicon Technology (RBCN): 'I'm not going to cross the Rubicon.'
Martha Stewart Living (MSO): ' … ever since she moved over her seat, so I could sit next to my daughter at St. Bart's, I can't say a bad word about her... The stock itself is not a great stock. I don't like publishing. Please don't take it personally, Martha...'
Tootsie Roll (TR): 'I like the fundamentals. I think it's inexpensive, but I see no catalyst, and I'm not a big fan of the food stocks here, because of raw costs.'
Silicon Laboratories (SLAB)
Danaher (DHR): 'Ix-nay on the DHR. Too bad, because those boys who run that company are real good.'
China Mobile (CHL): 'I can no longer recommend CHL... Don't buy, don't buy... I can't. I don't like the overweighting.'
