Jim Cramers Mad Money April 19, 2005

Jim Cramer Comments:

Cramers Market View:

Everything a bull could possibly want has happened in the last hour or two: The markets flipped

INTC and LU good quarters
YHOO Jordan Rohan was completely wrong a beautiful quarter not too late

Disclaimer: This is my interpretation of Cramers comments, the show goes by quickly so I try and catch as many key words as possible for each pick. Accuracy is NOT guaranteed but is however strived for.

Fed Worries about the Fed are done. Federal reserve take your much needed vacation and call me in September

No institutional memory in this business

Get Goldman Sachs over Merrill Lynch
Get PEP over KO KO is a slower grower but they are selling at the same price

Still undergoing a tremendous rotation
Three day party will be over after Friday, dont like tech in the summer

Jim talks with Patricia Russo of Lucent (LU):
Takeaway: Best house in a VERY tough neighborhood. Didnt hear anything that makes me want to sell, if anything I heard things that make me want to buy. Could use a 7 for 1 split to make it institutional in nature

Jim talks with Andy Bryant (INTC):
Takeaway: INTC has enough business so they can do well without US PC makers doing well. Didnt give the high sign for 60% gross margins well just see steady upside, not spectacular upside. Most importantly, sell other semis into the strength what is good for INTC is good for INTC. Dont outthink it. Go buy the best of breed companies because that is where all the action is going to be.

ASML - ASML HLDG NY REG - Get out if you get a little bit of an upswing
YHOO - YAHOO INC - Think you've got 5 days where YHOO's going to keep going up
GOOG - GOOGLE - Going back to original price target on GOOG - $250 (50 x earnings ($5) = $250)
GS - GOLDMAN SACHS GRP - Get in this over Merrill Lynch
PEP - PEPSICO INC - Get in this over KO - KO is a slower grower but they are selling at the same price

Lightning Round:
GRU - GURUNET CORPORATI - Israeli YHOO - Why not own YHOO?
GXP - GREAT PLAINS ENER - fine, continue to like energy
VLO - VALERO ENERGY CP - ring a bit of the register if you bought when it was down on his recommendation
MRK - MERCK CO INC - PFE, SGP, JNJ, Aventis, AMGN, BIIB - prefer every other drug company other than that
HELE - HELEN OF TROY LTD - BULL - will forgive the miserable quarter because of where we are in the cycle - HELE could work here
FWHT - FINDWHAT.COM - worse than GRU - go to YHOO stick with best of breed
FRK - FLORIDA ROCK IND - Like FRK - great play on potholes aggregates - the one I want to be in
NXL - NEW PLAN EXCEL RL - yields 6.5%, dividend is safe, like it good place to put money
AGI - ALLIANCE GAMING C - too risky for me - NO, IGT is better company and lower than this - don't like that either though - get BYD
CMGI - CMGI INC - fundamentals tell me the stock should be higher - big big revenues there
TSY - TRUSTREET PROP IN - yields 8.8%, safe bet to me, unexciting
KKD - KRISPY KREME DOUG - BEAR - horrible, don't know what there financials are
LRY - LIBERTY PROPERTIE - 6.25% yield, like that group, property management is smart place to be in REIT
AES - AES CP INC - Ring the register

ESI - I T T EDUCATION S - Industry always seem to be in trouble, ring the register - stay away from that industry
