Here's what Jim Cramer had to say about some of the stocks that callers offered up during the "Mad Money Lightning Round" Wednesday evening:

DuPont DD: "Lots of new patents over there. Great dividend. DuPont is a great turnaround. I'm trying to get more people into that one."

Bristol-Myers Squibb BMY: "Bristol is an opportunity. This company is worth $28 to $30, and you get paid to wait with that great dividend yield."

First Solar FSLR: "This stock is at a 52-week high. They're the only thin film maker and that's your play."

Nextwave Wireless WAVE: "Skip Nextwave, and Clearwire CLWR too. Those stocks are poisonous."

RAM Energy Resources RAME: "I've been looking at these smaller companies and I like them but I'd rather see you in Apache APA or Devon Energy DVN"

Electronic Data Systems EDS: "No, you're a seller of that one. This may not be that great a deal. Don't be greedy. Move on."

Hershey Foods HSY: "This is a difficult one. I can't recommend it on takeover rumors when the fundamentals aren't that good. Why not look into HJ Heinz HNZ"

Caterpillar CAT: "I like CAT, I think it's terrific. I want to buy that one. I think you're in great shape."

Goldman Sachs GS: "Their CEO has consistently made us money. I am a bull on him and the company. I like it and I think you should stick with that one."

Jim Cramer writes about all the stock trades in his charitable trust for TheStreet.com in Action Alerts Plus. Recent stocks he's traded in this account include Schering-PloughSPG, Yamana GoldAUY and Inverness MedicalIMA.

*For all you home-gamers, a 'mon-back opportunity means Cramer would back up the figurative truck and load up on a stock.
