Up/Down-Happy/Sad: Wrestling With the Market

Boy, didn't you think that Russian wrestlin' bear would put a whuppin' on that Wyoming farm boy? (Of course, being that NBC hung in there and even televised it, should have tipped us off.)

Have to admit, though, I shed just a little tear for Mulan Rulan and the Russian. Happy for the winner; sad for the loser.

Which is kind of how I feel about this market: happy and sad ... all in the space of a few hours lately!

Anyway, today I continue my long-term/short-term look at a few stocks many of us have. Today, a look at three prom queens: EMC (EMC Quote - Cramer on EMC - Stock Picks), Nortel (NT Quote - Cramer on NT - Stock Picks) and JDS Uniphase (JDSU Quote - Cramer on JDSU - Stock Picks). And, of course, a look at that rascally Nasdaq .

Whew! Glad to get that week over with, aren't you?
