Cramer's 'Mad Money Lightning Round': Nastech's Got It Going On

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" Monday evening:

Starbucks(SBUX): "I'm concerned still. ... If it can maintain its 20% growth, it now only sells at 33-34 times next year's earnings. ... Not in the buy camp but certainly not in the sell camp anymore."

Tribune(TRB): "You want to sell that nine ways to Sunday."

Excel Maritime(EXM): "Whenever I hear about bulk carrier stocks ... I always send people to the one that is best run. General Maritime(GMR) is the one to swap into."

Dyax(DYAX): "The stock just ran all the way up to 6. It's now coming back, just like Dendreon(DNDN). Let it come back to 5. Then you can pull the trigger."

Meruelo Maddux Properties(MMPI): "I don't trust it. ... We want income-producing properties ... Kinder Morgan Partners(KMP). That's our best play."

Houston Wire & Cable(HWCC): "At its 52-week high, not expensive. ... I did think at one point that Home "Despot"(HD) would buy them. ... I am not a buyer of that company [Houston Wire]."

Nastech(NSTK): "Nastech has so many ways to win, that just to be up a buck and half is not enough."

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