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

Oceaneering International (OII Quote): "Listen and listen good, Oceaneering, Core Labs (CLB Quote) and FMC (FMC Quote) all went down. ... That is wrong. ... I am telling you right now, FMC, I want you to be big in it. ... And Core Labs is best in show."

Concho Resources (CXO Quote): "These are kind of gas and oil plays. And the ones I'm gonna recommend are Apache (APA Quote) and XTO Energy (XTO Quote). Why those two? They've already reported. They reported great quarters. ... I want to be sure, and those you can pull the trigger on, I need to have seen the quarter already."

Axsys Technologies (AXYS Quote): "You know this is another one of the optical segment plays. ... I've gotta tell you, I like Ciena (CIEN Quote) more. Yours no, Ciena yes."

Schnitzer Steel Industries (SCHN Quote): "It missed the quarter, man. I got too many companies that hit the quarter. I like Reliance Steel (RS Quote) more than I like yours. I like AK Steel (AKS Quote) more than I like yours. I like United States Steel (X Quote). I got three companies I like more than I like yours."

Brookfield Asset Management (BAM Quote): "Here's the deal, BAM is run by a brilliant group of people. This could be the Canadian Warren Buffett. I would urge you to buy more. This company is so smart. ... I think that Mr. Flatt [Managing Partner and Chief Executive Officer Bruce Flatt], who runs the company, will be able to take that strong Canadian dollar and buy more American companies."

Yum! Brands (YUM Quote): "I want you to buy more of it! ... KFC, Taco Bell, Pizza Hut, these are world-class brands. ... I would recommend Yum! at $40 going to $45, raising my price target right there."
