Jim Cramer's Lightning Round


Smart Balance

Smart Balance Inc
SMBL

12.2 UNCH 0%




[SMBL 12.2 --- UNCH (0%) ]: Cramer’s not a fan. Stick with a name like Pepsi [PEP 71.11 --- UNCH (0%) ], he said.

Parametric Technology

Parametric Technology Corp
PMTC

16.84 UNCH 0%




[PMTC 16.84 --- UNCH (0%) ]: If you want to be in the software stocks, Cramer recommends BEA Systems [BEAS 13.38 --- UNCH (0%) ].

General Motors

General Motors Corp
GM

34.98 UNCH 0%




[GM 34.98 --- UNCH (0%) ]: The UAW should have gone after someone else, Cramer said, because GM is “sticking it to them.” The company is a powerhouse, and Cramer recommends keeping an eye on it, then buying aggressively when the stock comes in.

DirecTV [DTV 24.42 --- UNCH (0%) ]: Cramer likes DTV, but his favorite satellite play is RRSat Global Communications [RRST 20.85 --- UNCH (0%) ].

Zumiez

Zumiez Inc
ZUMZ

49.0601 UNCH 0%




[ZUMZ 49.0601 --- UNCH (0%) ]: “Have you been to one?” Cramer asked. “The place is rockin’!” ZUMZ has the momentum and it has the merchandise, he said. It’s a “hot play in a hot market,” and he endorses it even at its 52-week high.

Superior Offshore

Superior Offshore International Inc
DEEP

11.83 UNCH 0%




[DEEP 11.83 --- UNCH (0%) ]: Along with NYSE Euronext [NYX 69.36 --- UNCH (0%) ] and Sears Holdings [SHLD 134.88 --- UNCH (0%) ], DEEP is an example of a good company with a terrible stock, Cramer said. That said, he still is holding onto the faith that all three of these companies will come back.

Oshkosh

Oshkosh Truck Corp
OSK

56.57 UNCH 0%




[OSK 56.57 --- UNCH (0%) ]: This truck manufacturer has an “ideal combination” of emergency and defense vehicles, but Cramer is sticking with his favorite defense name: Northrop Grumman [NOC 79.86 --- UNCH (0%) ], followed by Lockheed Martin [LMT 101.19 --- UNCH (0%) ].

Cisco Systems

Cisco Systems Inc
CSCO

32.09 UNCH 0%




[CSCO 32.09 --- UNCH (0%) ]: The stock is going the speed limit, Cramer said, and it’s not going to get a ticket. If CEO John Chambers can come out and say he’s bullish, Cramer is bullish, too.

GMX Resources

GMX Resources Inc
GMXR

33.5 UNCH 0%




[GMXR 33.5 --- UNCH (0%) ]: Cramer is a believer in natural gas going higher. Stay long nat gas, he said, and GMX is a “fine” way to do that.

Siemens

Siemens AG
SI

129.74 UNCH 0%




[SI 129.74 --- UNCH (0%) ]: Despite recent losses, SI is a high-quality company, Cramer said, and it’s too cheap to be forgotten. Also: “Germany is coming back.”

Parker Drilling

Parker Drilling Co
PKD

8.62 UNCH 0%




[PKD 8.62 --- UNCH (0%) ]: “This is the worst driller in the world,” Cramer said. “Step up to the plate and buy some quality!” He recommends Transocean [RIG 111.07 --- UNCH (0%) ], Schlumberger [SLB 106.97 --- UNCH (0%) ] or Halliburton [HAL 38.02 --- UNCH (0%) ].

Assurant [AIZ 51.82 --- UNCH (0%) ]: This one is boring, Cramer said. He prefers Prudential [PRU 94.97 --- UNCH (0%) ] and Metlife [MET 69.92 --- UNCH (0%) ].
