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

Sunoco SUN: "I have a real problem with Sunoco and the refiners. The margins are just going down; I cannot recommend them. I'll give you Marathon Oil MRO but that's it for that sector."

Juniper Networks JNPR: "I'm not a fan of Juniper. They're going head to head with Cisco Systems CSCO and that makes it a sell, sell, sell.

I'm only recommending Apple AAPL and Intel INTC."

Commscope CTV: "Oh jeez, I'm sorry, there are too many players in that game. That one's a sell, sell, sell."

Genentech DNA: "This is a tough one. They have a great drug, but it's not getting the approvals it needs. That group is too hard right now."

Gencor Industries GENC: "This is a surprising company. It's got a lot of things in it. You've got a winner there."

Sunpower SPWR: "No, no, we are not fans of any traditional solar plays. We are only recommending First Solar FSLR and Applied Materials AMAT for its solar division."

OraSure Technologies Inc OSUR: "No, no, no, that was one of the worst quarters I've ever seen. You have to sell that one, that's just terrible."

Energy Conversion Devices ENER: "That one has been on a roll, but hogs get slaughtered. You've got to sell that one and take your profits."

Fifth Third Bancorp FITB: "I don't trust their dividend. It used to be one of the premier banks out there and I just don't trust it anymore. I'm a seller."
