Jim Cramer's 'Stop Trading!': Buy SPX
Buy SPX (SPW) Jim Cramer said on CNBC's "Stop Trading!" segment Thursday.
Cramer praised CEO Christopher Kearney, calling him "truly impressive." He said SPX represents "what I call one of the new tech stocks." He said the company is making energy-efficient machines. He said SPX reminds him of
Emerson Electric
(EMR) - Get Report
, and he also likes action in
U.S. Steel
(X) - Get Report
and
Cleveland-Cliffs
(CLF) - Get Report
.
On the broader market, Cramer said, "This is an outright bullish day." He said some might believe that it's because of options expirations, but he said he believes "there's a lot of money coming into this market right now. ... It's very hard not to like this market."
Cadbury
(CBY)
announced a bullish forecast today. Cramer recommended that viewers take a look at
Heinz
(HNZ)
,
PepsiCo
(PEP) - Get Report
and
Coca-Cola
(KO) - Get Report
on that news.
Cramer then spoke about wind energy. He said billionaire investors Warren Buffett and T. Boone Pickens are both into the trade. He said that
Trinity Industries
(TRN) - Get Report
has a "business that should be on fire." He said railroads are another play on the wind business, mentioning
Union-Pacific
(UNP) - Get Report
among other stocks. He also likes
Owens Corning
(OC) - Get Report
and
Woodward Governor
(WGOV)
, he said.
"I don't think people have yet grasped the significance of this cheap form of power," Cramer said. "The wind issue is bigger than solar."
On investor speculation that the dollar may strengthen, Cramer told viewers to pay attention to supply-demand imbalances, saying the dollar's strength or weakness is less important than those factors. He said that
Transocean
(RIG) - Get Report
, for example, faces earnings visibility years into the future.
Cramer said the dollar "is an obfuscation" of more important trends. "Buy what's in short supply and strong demand," he said. "Don't overfocus on the dollar or
Federal Reserve
Chairman Ben Bernanke. ... It's a mistake."
At the time of publication, Cramer had no positions in any of the stocks mentioned.
