Transcripts For KPNX Mad Money 20160915

Dipping 22 points, nasdaq advancing just 0. 36 . Thank you, apple, for that. But if demand is just fine, thank you, not falling off a cliff, then we can tough this market out together. Not everyone agrees. For example, at the alpha conference yesterday, the vast majority of speakers seemed to write off the prospect of any robust growth in demand either here or worldwide. If you had to boil down the barest thesis, it will go like this. Central bankers are out of bullets. Nothings working. Demands declining. So were headed into the unknown, and lurking in the unknown is a terrible abyss of losses for anyone who owns anything. Stocks, bonds, you name it. Up guy, a person who looks at demand company by company and makes an aggregate case based on what i can put together. Now, i admit that the demand side worldwide is worry some, not dangerous, but worrisome. What we saw in 2007, that was dangerous when Central Banks generated Systemic Risk by tightening into an economic collapse. We dont see the big stimulus programs, you know, the governments printing money coming out of europe. Those governments led by germany are simply too cheap. I dont know what the heck the japanese are doing. Whatever it is, there seems to be more demand for the new super mario bros. Game than anything else. The demographics just dont support robust demand given latin america is trying, but as long as venezuela is in trouble and brazil is transitioning out of trouble, dont get your hopes up. Two bright spots, india and lately russia. Good but not good enough. China, we just dont know if their growth is accelerating or holding steady. Yesterday amidst all the gloom, i interviewed a fund manager. His name is robert bishop. He recommended a resource stock, teck resources. He said chinas commodity demand is now climbing after bottoming out in the first couple months of the year. Then we interviewed joe tsai, the cofounder of alibaba. He said demand is strong for everything they sell. Have you seen that . I think speaks louder about chinese demand than any of the usual indicators. Which brings us to the united states. I find the demand story here challenged, okay . Maybe some ways impaired, but not down for the count. And certainly not at all dangerous. How am i measuring demand . One input that predominates, i think, falsely, is the price of oil. Weve been trapped in this macroworld as measured by commodity pricing meaning bigger Fund Managers look at oil as a virtual thermometer. Any time the price of oil drops as it did today, plummeting 1. 26 down to 43. 64 any time oils rally, thats a sign demand is picking up. I mean ridiculous. This is ridiculous. The price of crude is the sum of supply and demand, okay . With supply ready to overwhelm any demand, even demand thats 10, 15, 20 stronger than it is now. When u. S. Oil inventories drop as they did today, you have a fleeting rally in crude and then a decline because we recognize that theres still a glut. Too much oil being produced. Later as oil heads to 40 from 43, you then get a rebound of an emergency opec meeting to freeze production. This rumor mongering works like a charm every time. In other words, the price of oil, its manipulated. Its bogus. And it has little to nothing to do with the real demand we need to calculate to make our world view, even as its the metric of choice for so many Fund Managers. Others use the price of metals like copper and steel. One of the reasons is copper has been displaced by other materials. So what am i looking at . In the u. S. , first its employment. Im still encouraged. I think employment is relatively strong. Its why i dont fear a rate hike as much as others. Thats based on my forecast by looking back at what happened when the fed tightened in september. Next i look at housing. Housing demand remains strong in were talking to Toll Brothers later tonight and their view is pretty positive on that latest Conference Call. When housing is robust, that means spending to fix up a house is strong, and thats a major piece of our huge retail economy. How about nonresidential construction . Big chunk. Big chunk of the business. I speak to several companies in every silo of nonresidential from the Construction Loans in all geographies to the materials needed to erect buildings to the fixtures, heating, airconditioning, lighting, ventilation companies. My judgment . Things are pretty good. While i dont like the automobile stocks because the worldwide enterprise isnt as healthy as id like as i just said, the demand in the u. S. Is strong with suvs and trucks selling very well. Aerospace, strong out of boeing today. At the actual store level, it is mixed, not terrible. Casual dining is not good. Look at Cracker Barrel down 10 today. But some of that is because its price of food mentioned on the Cracker Barrel call. I believe theres also been a tamping of demand from increased health care bills. Retailers, hit or miss. We see strength of walmart and amazon which are a huge part of the retail equation. Department stores, not great all we we had a key up grade at macys today. Back to school, not bad at all. Nd then theres perhaps the most overlooked gauge of demand in this country, and thats the huge and, yes, entirely unexpected increase in orders for apples supposedly blah iphone 7. When you have sprint and tmobile saying they have offthechart demands for the phone, when at t tells us today that demand is better than expected and verizon says its consistent with the predictions ceo Lowell Mcadam made on this show, that the iphone is indeed selling very well, then its an hence the terrific run in apple stock. The sessions leader. We know that millennials now represent about half the consumer demand in this country and they spend on way Different Things than other generations including my own. They like experiences. They like games. What can you play the most highpowered games on . The iphone 7. How do you share your expenses best . With beautiful pictures taken on your brandnew iphone. You have a billion iphone users and theyre willing to spend hundreds of dollars on their phones, these new ones that they otherwise wo Something Else because they want the processing power. They want the speed. Thats pure demand. Now, i know that my mosaic seems nothing but a series of anecdotes. We want someone from a we want a Commerce Department number to capture what i just put together. We want some grand inquisitor to ask questions and make sense of everything and then mind meld it with an algorithm that shows us what the economy will do given that set of circumstances. Thats never going to happen. Youre stuck with my anecdotes. And based on the data, i think we dont have enough demand to keep the market from going lower. But we do have enough demand to contain the decline to levels that arent dangerous. Thats why i keep telling you to stay the course, because it will ultimately be too hard to get out and then get back in at lower levels. Depesh in tennessee. Depesh. Caller yes, mr. Cramer. Thanks for taking my call. I have a quick question about monsanto. I was just wondering it is still trading at 106 and 107. Is it the right time to buy . No, i dont want to buy because i dont believe the deal is going to go through. I think the farmers will fight it, and the companies themselves may be misjudging the opposition by the farmers. Mike in montana. Mike. Caller thanks for taking my call. Of course. Caller im an investor in metlife, and they are seeking to an ipo. What would be the effect of the stock if they do . I think its baked into the stock and youve got a 3. 65 yield. Its just an okay insurer. Its not fabulous. What can i say . Thats my judgment. Jerry in arizona. Jerry. Caller mr. Cramer, ambarella, stock symbol amba, had earnings last week and afterwards it got hit hard. At this point would you consider this a buy, sell or hold . I was on the look, the business is good, but the stocks very expensive. I dont want to own ambarella stock. Ive got too many high quality stocks that are in the Semiconductors Business that i think are doing terrific stuff, all this drone stuff. Its too hot for this guy. Me no like hot. All right. Theres no Global Demand number, no heres where the World Economy is headed algorithm. You got to find the clues, figure out the answers and right but theyre far from bad enough to have me telling you to run for the hills. I say stay the course. Tonight, the political rhetoric against drug prices has been tough. An investment in one major drug company. No, not yet. But ill tell you which play i think looks compelling just ahead.

This has been a very tough were nearing the oneyear anniversary of the infamous hillary tweet where the current democratic nominee pounced on the Martin Shkreli scandal to come out against price gouging. Ever since then, the pharma and Biotech Group have been stuck in the house of pain. That was just the first in a parade of negatives. Valiant went into freefall thanks to a vortex of accounting issues, disappointing numbers, for aggressively raising prices while slashing its r d budget. And the Obama Administration blocked pfizers attempt to take over of allergan, which would have been an amazing deal, by moving the goal post at the last minute. And then last month, mylan put itself in the crosshairs by dramatically raising prices for its epipen, a life saving product that went generic ages ago because for the moment, their main competitor has been forced to pull its alternative off the shelves. You can understand why the Hillary Clinton continues to lead in the polls, even if the race has been tightening of late. The pharmaceutical sector has represented by the power shares pharma as for biotech, the i shares nasdaq bio etf has fallen more than 15 this year. Its tumbled nearly 30 from its 2015 h. Against this backdrop, you might think a person would have to be crazy to buy shares in a drug stock. At least until the dust settles after election day. Well, call me crazy because over the last few weeks weve been building a new pharmaceutical position in my charitable trust. We meaning me and jack moore, thestreet. Coms chief investment strategist. Yet weve been buying the stock of bristolmyers, the drug years as the kind of high quality secular Growth Business thats imniced against the slings and arrows of the federal reserve. Bristols stock had gotten away from us earlier this year, but lately its taken a highprofile beating. Coming from 75 down to 55 in a very short period of time. And to me at these levels, it just screams value, even as you might have to wait a while for this investment to pay off. Ph but before i explain a while like bristolmyers here, you need to understand how this 92 billion big pharma name could lose an astonishing 28 of its value in less than two months because you almost never see a large capitalization stock fall so hard and so fast, let alone a highquality, not one of these drug i mean debtfueled businesses, but a highquality shares of bristolmyers entered august just a few bucks shy of their alltime highs. The cause . The company now said its flagship oncology drug, opdivo, failed to meet its primary end point in a Clinical Trial for advanced nonsmall cell lung cancer, and that is a gigantic end mark. So this news was a huge setback for the companys most important drug. It particularly led to a slew of analysts downgrades. But bristolmyers is a massive drug company with lots of products in the pipe. So then why did this one busted trial do so much damage . Until we got this sub par data, bristolmyers was widely regarded in the cancer immunotherapy space. Opdivo is already commercially available and and opdivos growth has been explosive. Last year it generated a billion dollars in sales and its just the as soon as we learned this drug failed to meet its primary end points in that lung cancer trial, wall street suddenly soured on the entire switch to a competitor, and thats the drug keytruda that merck makes. However, the reality is far more nuanced. The reason this drug failed to hit its end points is because bristolmeyers set the bar too high when they set the Clinical Trial. Opdivo operates on a particular protein but when they set up the study, they included any patients who expressed that bristolmeyers wanted to show th for every lung cancer patient, but even if they set the threshold at 50 , it would have demonstrated the drug could be effective for a huge number of patients. Because they set their sights so high, they got burned. So then why circle back to bristolmyers now . I mean isnt it just left for remember, the stock lost 20 billion of value the first day after the news broke and since then its only gone lower. Were only talking about a 5 billion stroke, right . 5 billion in lost sales. Big, but not 20 billion in market cut big. At the most basic level weve been buying bristolmyers because the pendulum has swung from opdivo estimates being too high to them now being too low. Now that analysts have completely stripped the nonsm numbers from their forecast, its just way too much negativity baked in. As the company pointed out, theyve still got a nonsmall cell lung cancer trial going pairing opdivo with another one of their drugs. If that trial goes well, the estimates will need to go higher. Remember, even with last months setback, opdivo already has fda approval for a host of different cancers. I dont think the strength of this drug will be totally diminished just because it did designed by the company study. The fact is bristolmyers remains a major player in the hottest subset of oncology, which is the cancer immunotherapy market. This is a classic Big Pharma Company with a host of different drugs for a variety of diseases from cancer to immune conditions to cardiovascular issues and neurologyy, and theyve got a robust new pipeline even after taking the opdivo cuts into account. The stock yields 2. 75 and even thats likely to be better than youd get from the ten year treasury. I think bristolmyers represents tremendous value at these levels. One big caveat. Bristolmyers is now a Value Investment and that requires a longterm time horizon. It could take a year, two years for the story to play out. Short term things could remain choppy and theres no reason it cant go still lower. I like it into any additional weakness. Patiently buy more bristolmyers on the way down. So heres the bottom line. In this negative environment for the drug industry, i think bristolmyers has finally come down to the point where its simply too attractive to ignore as a longterm investment. Sure, its not flying high right now. But bristol stock has been hammered before, and its always come right back eventually. I think this time will be no different. Stride . The stock is up double digits. Then how will a rate hike impact the Housing Market . Im sitting down with the number one luxury home builder to find out. And why a company like Boston Scientific could have more of an impact on your portfolio than any fed action. Stick with cramer. Ugh, this pimples gonna last forever. Oh come on.

My new mascara katy kat eye its the allday 360 cat eye ten times volume, darkness and no smudging katy kat eye and new katy kat matte lipstick from me and easy, breezy, beautiful boy, it is tough to own a retail stock these days. The house of pain. Lately it fee l whole group has fallen out of favor in the wall street fashion show, which has a whole different aesthetic from fashion week. Heres the thing. The Consumer Discretionary category makes up a little over 12 of the s p 500. Most of that being retail. Why does that matter to you . Because there are tons of hedge funds and mutual funds out there that dont feel safe unless theyre mirroring the sector rating of the s p 500. Basically they operate like an index phone with a brain. That way youre much less likely the mechanics of money management, many of these funds have a lot of cash that they need to invest in some sort of retailer. In only they could continue to mirroring the sector makeup of the s p 500. This may sound like a crazy way to invest, but its how a lot of these guys operate. Just look at the health care sector. The broader sec tore has been a dog all year, right . But the medical device stocks have roared higher because theyre the one segment of the Health Care Cohort thats actually doing well and is not in the crosshairs of the poci so all the hedge funds and mutual funds who need Health Care Exposure pile into the medical device stocks like Boston Scientific, whose ceo we heard from just last night. More on that later. Right now, though, its retail thats in the dog house. But we know that baskets of money allocated for Retail Stocks need to go somewhere. They need a name is what we would say on the desk, which brings me to foot locker. Even though its pulled back a few bucks in recent weeks, i think footlocker is exactly the kind of retailer that the big boys will feel comfortable buying in order to get the retail exposure that they need to have. What makes me say this . Okay. The last time i talked to you about foot locker was in early june when the company had just stumbled. After a twoyear winning streak where they only delivered knockout numbers, the stock had gotten slammed and investors were writing this one off. They decided to forget about still one more victim, of course, of the death of the shopping mall. But i told you not to be disheartened by one missed quarter. In part thats because there were mitigating circumstances like the liquidation of Sports Authority, a major competitor that at the time was furiously dumping its merchandise at fire sale prices before closing all of its stores. I also pointed out that once Sports Authority had finished liquidating, their market share would be up for grabs and beyond that foot locker had a lot going innovation plan. Best of all, i liked that the stock was dirt cheap, trading at merely 10. 7 times next years earning estimates. Solid execution. Thats why i said foot locker looked like a steal back at the beginning of june when it was at 55. Sure enough, it didnt take very long for foot locker to come back with a vengeance. Its now at 65 and change. Locker reported again in midaugust. This time the company was back at the top of its game, delivering a strong top and bottom line beat, solid 4. 7 samestore sales growth. Even better, though, the commentary on the Conference Call was terrific and assuaged all of our fears that had been raised by that last suboptimal quarter. Management said the traffic to its old strong self again thanks to new product launches in the air jordan superstar, the curry, and the kyrie platforms. The ceo said, quote, theres more work going on in basketball and well wait until the vendors really bring that to market to talk about it, end quote. Then he continued, quote, we see good things in basketball in the back half of the year, end quote. Back half of the year means holiday season. One of the reasons i like they literally sell sneakers that you cant get anywhere else. They tend to be the best, most fashionforward of all the iterations of these sneaker companies. What else . The company put up very Strong Performance internationally. Gross margin expanded by 40 base points. They didnt have a lot of inventory. One more thing. Ive been a big fan of foot lockers Renovation Program because remodeling stores is a proven way to boost traffic. Indicated they remodeled about 30 of the locations worldwide. Johnson said, the remodels outperformed the balance of the chain and in totality, they surpassed all of the hurdles that we have from a financial point of view, from a Capital Investment point of view. Put it all together, and thats a pretty darn good quarter. No wonder the stock surged up 11 that same day in response. Look, thats far from the only reason to like foot locker here. Theres also the adidas factor. We know the popula o adidas has been making a come back after a long period. Theres a reason adidas stock has rallied more than 65 yeartodate. Theyve been gaining traction in footwear and apparel by offering new styles with more celebrity collaborations and athletic endorsements like aaron rodgers, james harden. Thats how their north american sales rocketed an incredible 26 in the first half of the year. In particular, adidas superstar resurgence because the company introduced a huge variety of new colors. It doesnt take a genius to figure out how the success for adidas look at this display from one of their stores. In fact, on the latest Conference Call, foot locker called out the strength of adidas superstar. Obviously it was good for adidas may be bad for nike and under armour, but we dont care here. Why . Foot locker is agnostic. The better any of the suppliers do, the better they do. Even though foot locker has rallied nearly 18 since i recommended that means foot locker is trading at a huge discount to the broader averages. Still down yeartodate after recovering from a rough start to the year. This seems wrongly priced to me. Let me give you the bottom line. Can foot locker gets hit if the market goes back into sell off mode . But the company is doing extremely well and the stock is cheap. It will only get cheaper if it goes lower. There are a ton of Money Managers out there who need to own more Retail Stocks, and right now there arent that many retails who are doing well enough. Foot locker is one of the rare few. Its going to be their goto name going into the holiday season. It should be yours too. Jeremy in california, jeremy. Calling from claremont, california. How are you doing . Man, i love claremont. Doing great. How about you . Caller i am doing well, thank you. Hey, im calling about dicks sporting goods, ticker dks. Right. Caller ive had it for a few months, but it seems to be at a stalemate. Should i hold on to it . Had a huge rally after we realized Sports Authority really was gone. I now would hold on to it. Dont be aggressive. I think you can come down into the next market selloff. Caller how is it going, jim . How are you doing, troy . Caller doing well. How about yourself . I am doing well too. Caller question about skechers. Its come down a lot. Its an inexpensive stock. It has no there are a lot of momentum Money Managers in it, and theyre all bailing. That stock is going to tell you when you can buy it. It doesnt seem like you can buy it yet. When you pull back the curtain on wall street, you can find some interesting activity. There are a ton of managers out there that need to own a retail stock, and i think theyre going to be looking to buy foot locker, which is still cheap even after this run. Much more mad money ahead. What should you do with im going oneonone with one of the top players to find out. The big time Money Managers might be looking at this market wrong. Ill explain just ahead.

Despite some strong housing data, the groups been a mixed bag in terms of performance. We have to worry about this all the time. We think that could put a dent. Maybe people wont buy as many homes. Still when Toll Brothers number one luxury home builder in this Company Reported a few weeks ago, they totally knocked it out of the park. What got people so excited . Toll delivers a nice top line beat but more important, headline numbers. They mattered, but it was the 18 increase in net signing contracts, 90 increase in their backlog. I thought that was amazing and the fact that management gave bullish full year guidance. Since then, Toll Brothers has pulled back to the point where its stock is now trading below where it was before it reported, like the past quarter never possible rate hike but given the stock is already down 13 yeartodate, i got to wonder if it could be just a buy. Doug yearley, the ceo of Toll Brothers. Mr. Yearley, welcome to mad money. Ive followed your Company Since it became public and you know i know bob toll. Yeah. And youre a philly guy. Yes, i am. Hes a huge eagle fan like me. The one thing that has shocked me is that w guys have never really been big buyers of stock. This year, its an incredible amount of stock youre buying. Tell us why you switched directions and just think that the stocks too cheap and you got to buy. We bought back about 7 of our stock in the first three quarters of 16. It was the opportunity. Our book value is in the high 20s. Our stock was trading in the high 20s. We have some of the best growth in the industry right now. Our earnings are at the top. Our margins are at the top. Theres been this fear about luxury that were not seeing in this business. We saw where the stock price was laying around and this year was the time to buy a whole bunch back. We have a lot of retail investors. When you say book value, what youre saying is basically what this company is worth, its land, its prospects. Thats right. If we have the leading margin in the industry, you would think our book iet thats whats confusing me. One of the things that i want to go over, you mentioned about the high end. What is the sensitivity both to the high end because thats where you are, and then to the other end where some of these stocks are doing much better than yours, but i cant figure it . An increase, say, of a half a point in mortgage rates. Who does it hurt more . It hurts the lower end more because it comes down to affordability. It comes down to dollars and cents of what they can afford in a given month. Do they continue to rent, or is our buyers dont max out their mortgages. Our average ltv is 70 , 20 of our buyers are all cash. This is their second, third, fourth home theyre buying in their life. While a major move in rate would hurt us, a small tick will have no impact. Ive always said i will take a rate thats 4 , 4. 25 in a Strong Economy over 3. 5 rate where weve been for a long time. Right. In an economy that is not as good. So when the fed talks about to me is good news there might be a small rate increase because the economy is strong, yet the market is reacting short term with a sell. Are you still buying stock . We havent bought any yet this quarter. Okay. But we will certainly continue to be in the market, and you will see us continue when the opportunity presents itself to buy stock back. Is there news that is going to allow you to buy it . Were always balancing land opportunities we have with the right. Versus stock buyback, and we will continue to balance. Lets talk around the country. California, how is it . Fabulous. Really . Fabulous. Were in coastal california, northern and southern. Were not inland. Okay. We did a huge deal two years ago when we bought shapell, 1. 6 billion, which it transformed the company. We now have 25 of our business coming out of california. Orange county, l. A. County, ventura county, south bay and east bay of san francisco, fabulous. Places . 1. 2 million to 1. 5 million on average. Thats not a problem . Were killing. How about in the middle of the country . Our best market is detroit. Not a lot of job growth in the midwest. Were also in minneapolis, chicago. We like whats going on in michigan. Theres been more job growth as the Auto Companies have done better, but thats not a big growth territory for us. Florida . Florida is good. We need more land. Very hard to find land. Jacksonville. Were doing very well in orlando, which tend to be primary home markets. And then the second home market and the retirement areas of the gold coast of the east and the west coast, theyre good. We just need more land. Then round circle from what ha been not that great, northeast, great. Northeast is great. You know, we dominate boston to washington. Thats our home turf. Were out of philadelphia. Very few big National Builders are there, so we tend to dominate the land buying. We have a great brand because we grew up there. Its hard to find land. Its hard to grow because its so difficult to get land entitled. It may take five years in new jersey to get a farm approved for houses. When you get it, its gold. I wanted to ask you, ive been looking at this apple home kit. Is that something is it Toll Brothers outfitted electronically to be able to do the kind of home kit things that we see . We do a lot of it. We dont use apple right now. Were looking into that. We use another Company Called control 4. But were all over it. Last question. Tell people what you are and how that happened. Fortune magazine ranks the most admired companies by industry and weve been winning in home building. Then they rank worldwide of all industries for the quality of product. And all of a sudden little Toll Brothers out of philadelphia is number 6 on this list worldwide. The only companies in the world ahead of us are apple, amazon, nordstrom, google, and disney. Thats it. And then toll. I thought that was amazing. Heard you, and i hear you in all different venues, that i can recall. You know, jim, we announced three weeks ago, three weeks into our new quarter, that our deposits, which is an indicator of whats coming because its when somebody puts a check down on a lot, were up 23 for those three weeks. Were now three weeks further in. We are up 25 . Thats great news. Thats news. Were rolling. All right. Thats great news, and i did not know that. Thank you so off for sharing it with our viewers.

How does the world look to you today . You could look at the environment, and i think its very dangerous. These days its just maddening at best. So ill punt. Theres just not as many opportunities. Thats the reality. I think its a very dangerous time in the global economy. If i got a hundred bucks for every time that i heard the markets around the world were dangerous yesterday, id be a rich man. Im talking about the discussis managers i heard at the conference. These managers were almost uniformly concerned about the role of central bankers in propping up stocks or disporting the economy by creating artificial opportunities that will all one day be taken away, causing tremendous heartache and stress for investors. In other words, the feds set us up for failure with its easy money policies. However, im of a very different mind set. First i believe lower rates were and are a necessary evil, though dont think these Money Managers know whats out there. They cant see the populist rebellion that, if taken too far, would actually be really dangerous for the global economy. And perhaps more important, they cant see how this is a market of individual stocks, not a market of markets as most imply. So theyre either hopelessly removed from the stock picking process or just dont care one bit about what companies are doing to improve their situations. Im in a different ballpark. Ev i know some periodically admit their stocks are benefiting from the feds moves or lack thereof. But their own moves are often far more important, and i believe them. Yesterday, for example, after alpha concluded, i interviewed mike mahoney from Boston Scientific. What a breath of fresh air. I remember ten years ago when Boston Scientific paid a ridiculous 27 billion for guidant, a heart device company, a bid so high they they almost destroyed themselves. I would say it was one of the since then, it has struggled back mightily under the leadership of mike mahoney, who has been at the helm for five years. Hes now developed products that are dazzling the rest of a very competitive industry. His business is on fire to the point where Boston Scientific has 10 organic growth. Not only that, but the company is beating its own projections, beating numbers it forecasted why . Artificially low Interest Rates . Please, Monetary Policy has got nothing to do with it. Boston scientifics strength is about invention and ingenuity, and a competitive spirit coupled with leadership and sound financial management. But heres the issue. Boston scientific is merely a 31 billion company. Thats too small for most of the hedge Fund Managers i heard from yesterday. They have defaulted to the some of these Fund Managers would have to own all of bsx to matter to them. Thats how huge these funds are relative to individual stocks. All the work that mahoney has done, all the innovation, meaningless to them, but not to you. Not to home gamers. Not to the dying breed of stock pickers who would love to own a stock like Boston Scientific. When you hear how stocks are dangerously inflated, i want you to think of diligence and these arent manipulated by Central Banks. These arent supported by the European Central bank or the fed or any other government. These companies are supported by themselves, and frankly i dont care what they said at the panel. Boston scientific is trading at 23 because it deserves to be there based on what the company has done to save itself after that disastrous guidant acquisition. While that fact doesnt matter to these big dogs one whit, it sure should matter to you. Stick with cramer. Yes. You know, that reminds me of geicos 97 Customer Satisfaction rating. 97 .
