TheStreet.com Staff

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

RPM International (RPM Quote): "Have a 3% yield again," Cramer said of the maker of Rust-oleum. "C'mon, back up the truck* for RPM ... one of the great long-term performers."

Bausch & Lomb(BOL Quote): "As long as it's run by Ron Zarrella, it's a nightmare. ... He should step down. Ron, it's not personal, it's just business."

Six Flags(SIX Quote): "You should buy Six Flags in the spring, ahead of the summer season. I think you pull the trigger now."

General Maritime(GMR Quote): "The one guy I trust is [Peter] Georgiopoulos. He's the CEO. He is the actual founder. ... I'm banking with him and his tankers."

Cadbury Schweppes(CSG Quote): "It yields 3.68%. ... It's all the way down to 41? ... Let's do some work on it. ... Reminds me of Diageo(DEO Quote), which I bought at that level," for Action Alerts PLUS, Cramer's charitable trust.

Halliburton(HAL Quote): "Has a 10% buyback. I want you to keep your Hal. I'm keeping mine." Cramer owns it for Action Alerts PLUS. "Wakening from its slumber. Now marching upward."

Staples(SPLS Quote): "Has not moved at all. ... I am not abandoning it. It's one of the best-run retailers out there."

American Home(AHM Quote): "That dividend is 18%. ... I want to be careful of that. ... That dividend is a distinct red flag. I'm nervous."

Dell(DELL Quote): "Michael Dell cannot work miracles. I like Hewlett-Packard(HPQ Quote)," which Cramer owns for Action Alerts PLUS. "I want you to make the switcherooni."

Iconix(ICON Quote): "This stock has so much momentum, it even scares me. ... Don't BuyDon'tBuy, even though I know it's doing the right thing."

Under Armour(UA Quote): "I think the breakdown in Reebok, which is owned by Adidas, is going to be Under Armour's gain."

Gmarket(GMKT Quote): "The quarter was really bad. ... I was too bullish on it."

Charter Communications(CHTR Quote): "I looked at the quarter. I know it's nothing special. ... But this is the level [to buy]. I am sticking by Charter. I really like this stock."

Graco(GGG Quote): "I would take advantage of the fact that Graco's down, and I would pull the trigger."

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