Plenty of Bull Markets Besides Tech

Don't panic if tech's not your cup of tea. These brokers are on fire and I believe they still have legs because their price-to-earnings multiples are low. That TD Ameritrade (AMTD - commentary - Cramer's Take) trade was bountiful. Schwab (SCHW - commentary - Cramer's Take) looks great, too. JPMorgan (JPM - commentary - Cramer's Take), a real broker buried within a bank, should do the same.



I know that Wells Fargo (WFC - commentary - Cramer's Take) isn't a broker, but it is a wealth manager and that business is on fire, too.

Airlines still have upside, even though no one wants to go there because they have advanced so much. That's a mistake, because I believe that when this cycle has worked, you get stock appreciation beyond belief and this is the best I have ever seen for this group. AMR (AMR - commentary - Cramer's Take) is up huge here.

Credit Gordon Bethune, whom I had the privilege of talking to last week, for the rational world that developed and giving you the best vehicle to play it, Continental (CAL - commentary - Cramer's Take). Larry Kellner's shepherded it to the next level, of course.

And let's not forget restaurants, the primary beneficiary of lower oil prices. McDonald's (MCD - commentary - Cramer's Take) keeps putting good points on the board. That is an up stock, as is Darden (DRI - commentary - Cramer's Take). I am even warming to Yum! Brands (YUM - commentary - Cramer's Take)!

Finally, let's not forget the shippers who benefit from this decline in oil, too. UPS (UPS - commentary - Cramer's Take) seems to be the way to go there.

Sure, tech is tough. That just means, find the bull market somewhere else. And there are tons of them to find, if you know where to look.

Random musings: Don't overlook the aerospace bull market. Just take a look at the Parker Hannifin (PH - commentary - Cramer's Take) number and consider GE's (GE - commentary - Cramer's Take) buy! And consider Boeing (BA - commentary - Cramer's Take) again. I have to believe this can get to the $90 strike off of Airbus' endless problems.

General Electric owns CNBC, for which Cramer is a featured commentator. At the time of publication, Cramer had no positions in any of the stocks mentioned.
