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

Capital Trust (CT - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "I'm not against these companies, but they do require a massive amount of homework in order to feel comfortable. I can't recommend them, but if you've done the homework, then OK."

LDK Solar (LDK - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "It's done well without me. I like First Solar (FSLR - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr) and Applied Materials (AMAT - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr) and I'm sticking with those."

Diana Shipping (DSX - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "I like the shipping industry, but I like Nordic American Tanker Shipping (NAT - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr) and Frontline (FRO - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr). I think both of those are winners. I don't want to go further down the food chain."

Navios Maritime (NM - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "I'm not going to stick my neck out on this one. I want to see the numbers first."

Procter & Gamble (PG - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "I've been puzzled with why this one is going down. Proctor has raw cost problems, but it has superior technology. I think Proctor is right to buy here."

Capstone Turbine (CPST - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "No, too speculative for me. If I want turbines, I'm going with Caterpillar (CAT - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr). I can't get behind yours after a double."

Petroleo Brasileiro (PBR - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "This one is good, but it's so big, it's almost too good. Wait until oil goes back to $125, then buy it back."
