Jim Cramer's Mad Money - April 29, 2005
Joyless buying done in last hour some of the worst marking up I have ever seen because of the bad tape
Major US oil companies are still a buy if oil falls to $45 50 a barrel
Every time the oil stocks are down, particularly on the fifth day you are going to hear me tell you to buy

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.
Only growth matters
Morgan Stanley MWD If you are a board member of Morgan Stanley, you know that that gain (today and after hours) will be taken away if you vote to retain Purcell. Pressure is on these guys but I think they knock the stock down
INSP InfoSpace I got it wrong because I chased
DD - DU PONT E I DE NE - Sell because of end of the corner markup - take advantage of the unnatural lift that the end of the month markup provided - Ring the register
DE - DEERE CO - Sell because of end of the corner markup - take advantage of the unnatural lift that the end of the month markup provided - Ring the register
YELL - YELLOW ROADWAY - Sell because of end of the corner markup - take advantage of the unnatural lift that the end of the month markup provided - Ring the register

MWD - MORGAN STANLEY - $10 down and $15 up if this board fails to act - if the board keeps Purcell the stock will go down $10. If they boot Purcell they'll see $15 to the upside
CCU - CLEAR CHANNEL COM - BEAR - Has no growth whatsoever and the earnings were awful
SIRI - SIRIUS SATELLITE - BULL - At $4 its a fabulous call option on Mel Karmazin getting it together in 2008
SBUX - STARBUCKS CP - Intends for China to be its biggest market - Chinese steal software (MSFT) but when it comes to coffee they pay. The reason why Starbucks is done going down is China. If I wanted to play China from the start right here I'd buy SBUX or Proctor and Gamble (PG). Starbucks is not a monopoly, its a brand. It's hard to find that brand in China.
PG - PROCTER GAMBLE - If I wanted a pure play for China right now this is what I'd buy
