    Merrill Fire Sale - Cramer's Mad Money (7/29/08) [view article]
    MERs press release on the sale of the $11.1 billion "super senior" CDOs is a joke. They claim to have sold the securities for $6.7 billion ($0.22 per $ for the face amount of $30 billion) and taken a writeoff for the $4.4 billion difference. What they actually received was $1.7 billion in cash and a note for $5 billion from the buyer for the balance. The buyer is an affiliate of Lone Star with no assets other than the sold CDOs. Calling this a sale for $6.7 billion is ridiculous. The writeoff should be $9.4 billion.

    Is Cramer saying the model for Citigroup, Wachovia and Washington Mutual for “what they have to do to save themselves” is lie and distort?

    Cramer recommends if fundemental ok by in (pull back) yet most of the books and seminars recommend buy when stock is in its way up, so called follow the crowed and follow the money, it seems Cramer is contrary to others when stck is going down and money flowing away.
    who is right thanks

    ABP synbol has been changed to AXAS. I tried changing the symbol, but it doesn't recognize the new symbol. I enjoy reading Alpha Stock Alerts. Thank you. Reply

    Sony Not Just a Flash in Japan - Cramer's Lightning Round (6/16/08) [view article]
    If this goes down any further, I'd be glad to buy some of your APPL shares you so stupidly are selling. I have been buying on dips for this one all along, and it's the best stock I've ever seen, and the news just keeps getting better. I guess Craymer is just sellling cyclically, but with this stock, it's easy to sell when you should have held. WWDC has come and gone, but the value is still quite high, and will only go up once the news of the 3G iPhone hits home and they start sprouting up like iPods everywhere you go.

    iPhone is much cooler than iPod was, actually.

    Agreed. It takes more than one man to do what Apple has done. I am sure that Steve has influenced a great many people he has worked with as well. But I would not EVEN assume the rumors are true. Reply

    The Disney Corp. has flourished without Walt Disney so anyone who thinks Apple will be significantly different without Steve Jobs is short sighted, to put things politely. Reply

    Energy Trader: O-Day and N.A. Natural Gas & Tankers [view article]
    Gas tankers will not give you these returns. TNK oil tankers are a spin off of TK which is the largest spot market vessel management company in the world)


    TNK presentation

    Q1 EPS = $0.76
    YRLY EPS = $3.04

    The company just bought two new Suezmax tankers on credit and you can see that the profits will go up based upon this purchase and the currently highly spot rates. Download the guidance chart from TNK directly.

    link to divided payout schedule (guidance chart) based upon spot rates
    www.teekaytankers.com/...
    download 48kb 3 page file and look at dividend spreadsheet.

    VLCC $95,263

    AfraMAX $41,447

    I watch and record the weekly spot averages for all tanker types.
    The above list is the Average tanker daily spot rate as of the end of Q1. Q2 is higher already.


    Here is the latest average including every week from Jan 1 to today.
    05/02/08
    VLCC $96,718
    SUEZMAN $72,152
    AFRAMAX $46,545

    For those of you too lazy to download this critical guidance here is the brief summary.

    Current Q1 spot rates

    20,000 = dividend $1.64
    25,000 = dividend $1.99
    30,000 = dividend $2.34
    35,000 = dividend $2.69
    40,000 = dividend $3.04 ***** here we are

    Mixter, did you include Yates Petroleum in that calculation? They are not publicly traded, but hold more leased reserves in the US than any other company. I doubt the 3% figure for a variety of reasons, foremost being the oil companies propaganda to keep us involved in the middle east. Most of our oil comes from Canada and Mexico, then south America. Simply put, we don't need the middle east. Reply
