Cramer's 'Mad Money' Follow-Up: Aug. 25

NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Every night on "Mad Money," Jim Cramer offers market commentary and general investment advice, and he makes calls on specific stocks, both of his own choosing and in response to viewer requests. He relies on his many years of experience and strong track record, and he takes full responsibility for his calls.

"I never shirk from admitting my mistakes; instead, I dwell on them to learn from them. I change my mind, I take losses, I own up to them," Cramer has said.

Here we track some of his calls from the previous episode of "Mad Money" and find out, at least in the very short term, how the stocks are performing. Keep in mind that Cramer might not have been recommending that viewers take immediate action on a stock. And, of course, it's up to the individual investor to do his or her own homework.

That said, here's how some of the stocks that Cramer talked about on Monday's "Mad Money" show fared today.

---

Citigroup(C Quote): Cramer said that speculators were responsible for Citigroup's 25-cent jump at Monday's open and that it was too quick an increase. He still liked the stock long-term but advised viewers to wait for a pullback before buying.

On Tuesday, Citigroup closed down 7 cents, or 1.5%, at $4.75.

Fannie Mae(FNM Quote) , Freddie Mac(FRE Quote): Cramer said there's a lot of speculation surrounding Fannie and Freddie, as well, with people hoping the stocks will make them money fast, even though it's not clear yet how much the companies owe the government.

On Tuesday, Fannie added 16 cents, or 9.4%, to $1.86, while Freddie picked up a penny to close at $2.06.
