Here are a few of the questions to which Cramer recently responded:

• IBM(IBM Quote) is dropping like a rock -- a $15 loss in the past few days.
  Anyone have an opinion on this stock?
• PMI Group(PMI Quote):
  Is the action with this stock a result of a short squeeze? A 40% gain on a mortgage insurer is obscene.
• I know that you like the rails. I am wondering what kind of time frame you are thinking for the rails to benefit from higher oil prices as a less expensive alternative for travel/shipping. Trinity Industries(TRN Quote) seems to be projecting flat 2008 for rail business. I know that you said growth is primary to stocks. However, it seems like a good company put on sale.
  Any thoughts?
