I call myself the Random Investor because I don't intend to limit myself in any way. I choose stocks to review the way I choose books to read (and I read A LOT) - whatever catches my eye. Might be an interesting piece of news, might be a product I like, might be I like the competition, could be... More

  • Jim Cramer Six In Sixty - 6/6/12

    Companies in the news today...

    Dick's Sporting Goods (DKS) - Wells Fargo says it can't beat Amazon (AMZN), this is an old discretionary play and it's up, that's very bullish for America

    United Health (UNH) - dividend hike and buyback - United Health is just spewing cash, this is a stock that's very undervalued, hey remember, Supreme Court is gonna rule soon on Obamacare

    Southwest Energy (SWN) - upgrade to Neutral from Sell - It's been a great call as a Sell, maybe this is the bottom for natural gas

    Monster Beverage (MNST) - USB says still too low - Monster Beverage and Ulta Salon (ULTA) are the great growth stocks of the year and people don't talk about them

    Sherwin-Williams (SHW) - downgraded to Sell - this guy didn't like it earlier and still doesn't like it, wake up and smell the paint

    VMWare (VMW) - recommended Buy at Oppenheimer - big day, it's been real big down but maybe this is gonna be the turn, I like this call

    Disclosure: I have no positions in any stocks mentioned, and no plans to initiate any positions within the next 72 hours.

  • Jim Cramer Six In Sixty - 6/5/12

    Companies in the news today...

    Caterpillar (CAT) - This is going to... look, Westport (WPRT), this is natural gas engines, off-road vehicles, very interesting here, ever since Cummins (CMI) decided to not have such a great partnership with Westport, it's been down, this is very positive for Westport

    United Rentals (URI) - look, if you can get construction going in this country, you have another leg, obviously by the employment numbers people haven't bought this, i like the stock here

    Lululemon (LULU) - wow you know, this is a bold call by USB saying buy it ahead (of earnings) but cotton costs have come down dramatically, its worth thinking about

    Kellogg (K) - Kelloggs is Europe, Melissa mentioned earlier the fact that a lot of these consumer package stocks have big exposure to Europe, Kelloggs is gigantic there

    Chico's FAS (CHS) - domestic security, I think this stock can make a stand here

    Netflix (NFLX) - wow, this is horrible for Akamai (AKAM), of course everyone immediately reiterates Akamai, it's horrible for LVLT, you can't... this is a huge traffic generator for a company like Akamai, be careful out there

    Disclosure: I have no positions in any stocks mentioned, and no plans to initiate any positions within the next 72 hours.
