I'm issuing a 'mon back* right here." Wal-Mart(WMT Quote): "Don't buy, don't buy, don't buy. It is still a huge bummer to shop there. ... I can't get my kids to go there." XTO Energy(XTO Quote) "is strictly 'mon back material" because its properties will be unscathed by Hurricane Rita. Ashland(ASH Quote): "Why are they giving Ashland away? That's a mistake. I would buy that stock here."
