Jim Cramer answers viewers' stock questions sent in on Twitter (TWTR) from the floor of the New York Stock Exchange. When one viewer asks why Southwest Airlines (LUV) is stuck at the gate, Cramer says he likes the company but the airlines will be stuck in purgatory until gas and fuel prices come down. He also sheds light on Etsy (ETSY), which another viewer notes has seen its stock tumble. Cramer explains that's because the stock was overvalued when it became public. He believes Etsy is better off as a concept than a reality, and he would avoid it due to what he calls a bad business model. On the retail front, Cramer reveals why he maintains that UnderArmour (UA) and Nike (NKE) are two stocks to own.
