Stock quotes in this article: BJ , COST , RIMM , APPL , SNDK , DF , NTAP  

On Monday's "Mad Money" show, Jim Cramer said that NetApp(NTAP Quote) is screaming "buy." The network storage maker made a bid to acquire Data Domain(DDUP Quote), something that typically would send the acquirer's stock lower. NetApp, however, has been on the rise.

On Tuesday, NetApp lost $1.35, or 6.5%, to close at $19.34.

After comparing Costco(COST Quote) and BJ's Wholesale(BJ Quote), Cramer determined that BJ's is the better stock to own. BJ's sales grew in the last quarter, while Costco's were flat. Also, BJ's trades at 13 times earnings, while Costco trades at 18 times earnings.

On Tuesday, BJ's lost 36 cents, or 1%, to close at $35.37. Costco closed down 25 cents, or 0.5%, at $49.45.

Cramer removed SanDisk(SNDK Quote) CEO Eli Harari from his worst-CEO list and called the stock a buy, citing high demand for the company's products.

On Tuesday, SanDisk slipped 62 cents, or 3.9%, to close at $15.43.

In his "Lightning Round" segment, Cramer said that even though Dean Foods(DF Quote) has been "stagnant" lately, he still likes it. "Not all of your horses are going to win at once," he said.

On Tuesday, Dean Foods closed down 6 cents at $18.71.

He also said that Research In Motion(RIMM Quote), Apple(AAPL Quote), Amazon(AMZN Quote) and Google(GOOG Quote) should all go higher.

On Tuesday, RIM added 46 cents, or 0.6%, to close at $82.61. Apple closed up 14 cents, or 0.1%, at $139.49. Amazon added $1.88, or 2.3%, to close at $84.93. Google closed up $1.84, or 0.4%, at $428.40.
