Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke warned Congress on Tuesday of the grave consequences if lawmakers fail to pass the $700 billion plan to bail out the finance industry, such as higher unemployment and increased home foreclosures.

Bernanke reported to the Senate Banking Committee that inaction could leave ordinary businesses unable to borrow the money they need to expand and hire additional employees, while consumers could find themselves unable to finance big-ticket purchases such as cars and homes. Bernanke also stated that a recession would be inevitable without passage of the plan.

Stocks were all over the place on Tuesday, with big swings in both directions.

AIG(AIG Quote - Cramer on AIG - Stock Picks), Microsoft(MSFT Quote - Cramer on MSFT - Stock Picks) and Intel(INTC Quote - Cramer on INTC - Stock Picks) led the winners, while Citigroup(C Quote - Cramer on C - Stock Picks), General Electric(GE Quote - Cramer on GE - Stock Picks) and Wachovia(WB Quote - Cramer on WB - Stock Picks) all struggled.

With this in mind, we thought we'd take a look some of the top-searched stocks on TheStreet.com, including Goldman Sachs(GS Quote - Cramer on GS - Stock Picks) and Fluor(FLR Quote - Cramer on FLR - Stock Picks), and see what Jim Cramer's had to say about them.
