Cramer's 'Mad Money' Recap: Annaly Mea Culpa

Stock quotes in this article: CRM , JCP , QPEL , AMX , SHLD , GD  

Cramer said he believes in the company's new CEO and business model, which focuses on turning Blockbuster's locations into a place to purchase, as well as rent, movies, games and entertainment.

"Video on-demand in the home is a long way off," says Cramer, which makes Blockbuster's new business model viable, at least for awhile.

He said the company is actually paying down its debt, rather than trying to borrow in this uncertain market. And with such a low share price, he said there is almost no downside to speculating on Blockbuster at these levels.
