Profiting on Cell Phone Upgrades

Cramer welcomed David Aldrich, President and CEO of Skyworks Solutions (SWKS Quote) to the show for an update on the company's business.

Aldrich said the company's business continues to be strong. The cell phone industry, he said, is in the middle of an upgrade cycle, with older voice-only phones being replaced by smartphones that provide GPS, Internet and other services.

In addition, he said, Skyworks is now a sizeable supplier to all of the major cell phone manufacturers including Apple (AAPL Quote) and Research In Motion (RIMM Quote).

Calling Skyworks a great story, Cramer said he continues to be behind the company.
