Transcripts For WBAL Mad Money 20130131

You can feel the pain the house of pain. Its the pain of the bearish Money Managers being overridden by the you guessed it. And thats precisely why i dont expect this pullback to last too long. Because we have a powerful force pushing this market higher. Im talking about the herculean attempts by Money Managers to keep up with the galloping averages and the heartache those averages are causing. All aboard all right. Lots of people have been talking about the return of the little guy to the market and how thats driving stocks higher. Oh, yeah, its a factor. Its only a piece of something much bigger that may be behind a huge amount of this historic january advance that i got to put in context for you and ive got to do it tonight. It all begins with a Fourth Quarter Gross Domestic Product number we started the day off with. Here we go again,. 1 drop. Especially when you consider the 3. 1 gain we had in the previous quarter, thats amazing. This number was mindnumbing. When i saw it, i shouted omg. But of course, no one could hear me because at that moment i had no voice whatsoever. Instead of this ridiculous froggy master imitation im doing right now. All right. Anyway, the gdp number reeks of recession. But in truth, many things that are happening in this market stem from that number. I think two factors caused this incredibly poor gdp performance. One manmade and one caused by mother nature. Im talking about all that chatter about the fiscal cliff, and hurricane sandy. Lets start with the former. You know what . We never have a good memory for the fear certain events engendered, but it was only a month ago that our country seemed on the verge of an astounding series of negative events courtesy of that cliff. The air was thick with charges and anger and partisanship. Frankly it was kind of insane. The worst since congress after the civil war. It was a terrible time for the republic. We were the worlds laughing stock, it was impossible, impossible for individuals or companies to figure out what they could possibly do without knowing what would happen with their taxes. The uncertainty was horrendous, the mood sour. We were getting all sorts of cross currents about what would happen with corporate and personal taxes. Were they going to raise taxes, were Capital Gains going up . Would the alternative minimum tax ensnare millions of people . Would businesses have to start a whole brand new round of layoffs . Executive after executive came on this show to say, look, we cant do a thing. Whats the point . We will just have to undo it. Business confidence plummeted, and the idea of forming a new business. Well, remember when the ceo of paychex came on and talked about the paralysis caused by the cliff . Who would leave his job to start a new business in that environment . Okay. Retail sales werent that bad. But they nose dived right at the end of the quarter. Retailers were afraid to restock inventory, figuring that spending would drop off the cliff right along with the nations finances. It was all in all a very bad time for our nation. Now, overlay the storm of the century for the northeast, one that shut down the wealthiest area of the country for several weeks and caused what ultimately may be 100 billion in damage. You had the physical shutdown from the storm neatly and miserably dovetailing with the mental shutdown caused by washington. The result, the abysmal and artificially reduced Gross Domestic Product number we saw today. Most Money Managers are fixated on that topdown analysis. They look at those numbers, they care, they correctly detected the cessation the business in this country was undergoing. They pulled in their horns because of it. Some cases, dramatically. I understood it. Say we came in to 2013 over the fiscal cliff. I would say the vast majority of Money Managers out there believed we could be down 5 , 6 , 10 on the s p, and there was no sense in taking that kind of beating. Why not raise cash coming into the year . Why not raise cash the last week of december . At the same time, individuals wanted to beat the higher taxes. Many cashed out on their gains in their personal accounts, in their i. R. A. S. They raised cash knowing they might need that cash to pay much higher taxes, the taxes that a failed attempt to fix the cliff would produce. A huge amount of dough moved to the sidelines immediately. Companies themselves accelerated dividend payouts, putting tens of billions of dollars into the hands of shareholders who had no idea what to do with the money other than sit on it. So we came into the new year and we were paralyzed. Inventories lean, huge part of the country damaged by a storm, totally dysfunctional food fight animal house government, and were brimming with cash everywhere, for the biggest rainy day of all, the day we jumped over the cliff. But then we dont do the cliff dive. And contra to stock seer bob dylan, the hard rain, it didnt fall. In fact, we didnt get that much. We didnt get dinged except for the rich, who are the most able to handle it. All right, yeah, i can make a big deal about payroll tax thing, thats no problem. Nevertheless, its a small fraction of what we really feared. Stocks kept their favored status, including relatively low taxes on dividends. Something i do not know a soul who predicted. So we get a huge case of sellers remorse and the stock money comes right back in, the business that was put on hold comes pouring back, hiring begins again, business formation restarts, inventories get rebuilt and we get a totally different january from one that anyone expected. Sure we can try to make a big deal out of this sequestration. I wont. I think its a huge mistake to do so. We have a breakout of peace in washington and the big business money has flowed to eric cantor, not Speaker Boehner whos viewed with suspicion by corporate executives. And cantor doesnt want the business of the country derailed anymore. He recognized thats, well, bad for business. All aboard that means we get either a peaceful solution on sequestration or we get the government to cut. Which, by the way, most americans view as virtuous. On top of that, you know what we do . We keep those super low rates that Ben Bernankes fed committed to again today, making dividend stocks with their terrific tax status ever more cherished. Meanwhile, housing is gaining steam, inventories are lean. At the same time, we havent even started the massive sandy rebuild. This confluence, while fabulous for our nation, happens to be a nightmare for Money Managers. A ton of the money coming in is going right to the s p 500, and thats off like a rocket. Plus the dow jones average chock full of companies that benefit from overseas markets which are improving, including europe, yes, europe, well, theyre trooping higher too. That means bearish Money Managers, they have to scramble to keep up with the joneses and the s ps. Theyre competing with the passive indices to justify their own reason for being. The gigantic buybacks executed every day make the job more difficult. Theres not enough stock around to sate all these buyers. Okay. Now at a certain point, the markets got to cool down, as those who took the big risk of buying when others were selling, well, you know what . They ring the register. They cut back some of their holdings. Thats todays markets to a tee. Plus, when valuations get stretched, as theyre being now, earnings have to be pretty darn good to justify the runs, although we all know that disappointment produces dips that bring in buyers, not sellers. But good earnings like we had tonight from sky works, jdsu, qualcomm, citrix and, you know, decent numbers from facebook, they can and probably will cause a buying panic with all of their bright tidings. All right, heres the bottom line. Its clear. Fund managers have to chase stocks and put money to work. On up days and even down days like this one to keep up with the averages that are benefitting from washingtons exit from the business pages, and that robust Housing Market aided by the coming sandy rebuild. We can have breathers like today, but you know what . They are pauses that refresh and nothing more. Robert in new york. Robert . Caller long time listener from day one, mr. Cramer. Firsttime caller.

They overextended themselves. If you want to play, my Charitable Trust owns vale. Theyve already reduced expectations and i think it can go higher.

Im always talking about the north american oil renaissance, that huge surge in Domestic Energy production made possible by both new discoveries and more importantly new technology for getting oil out of the ground. But i dont stress the value of the technology enough, and how its being used internationally, particularly to explore in deep waters where big oil finds are just now being exploited, given what many people believe to be the permanently higher global price of crude. Its a terrific time to come back to our favorite tech company in the oil and gas industry. Im talking about core lab, clb, a company that uses its expertise to help Oil Producers figure out how much crude they have in the ground. Core doesnt just gather intelligence, they also do production enhancement. They can tell Oil Producers the best place to drill their well bos in order to squeeze more crude out of the oil fields. They show their clients how to maximize their return on the investment in a given oil field. In short, if youre an oil company anywhere on earth, you want core labs to help you get the most out of your assets. Schlumberger and weatherford have started to compete in the space. Now, core labs just reported after the close today, delivered a real good quarter. Earnings coming in 1. 17, 4 cent beat, better than expected revenues, company gave upside guidance for 2013. This is a stock ive liked for ages. We spoke to the ceo one year ago, and since then, core labs is up 10 , good, not as good as s p over the same period. The longterm record here is tremendous. The first time we had core labs on the show back on august of 2006, stocks given you a 228 gain with reinvested dividends. Weve had him on the show seven times since mad money began, each time core labs was higher than the last. Youre going to want to pay close attention now that we have David Demshur back. Find out more about the quarter and where his companys headed. Welcome back to mad money. Hey, jim, thanks for having us back on mad money. Glad to be here. First, do we have a lot more oil than we realize both in this country and the world . Because the places youre exploring, most of them ive never even heard of. Well, yeah, jim, if you look at some of the Unconventional Resources in north america, theres a bountiful number of plays that are left to be discovered. And so the amount being produced today is at about a 15year high in crude Oil Production. When we look at plays like the bakken, the eagle ford, and core labs believes theres one, possibly two more Oil Unconventional plays left to be discovered in north america. So, yes, with added technology, with fracking and our fracture diagnostic technology, we are helping our clients recover more and more of this unconventional oil. There may be two more big ones that we dont even know about yet . Yeah, we believe theres one, possibly two more left in north america that will come out over the next couple of years. Thats incredible. Now, i also detect some countries, looks like to me that mexicos getting back in the game and starting to drill much more seriously than it used to. Yes, jim, thats exactly right. Mexicos looking offshore now in the deep water. As you know, the gulf of mexico deep water has been prolific, and that trend curves around towards mexico. So you will see over the next several years, a lot more deepwater plays offshore mexico. We believe theres potential there for billions of barrels of additional recoverable oil. If you look at mexican production, its off some two million barrels. They need this Deepwater Development and core lab will be there to help them. I know mexicos deregulating the gasoline. They have much more money. Theyre committing right now to much bigger projects. Yes, and this includes, again, the offshore where some of these wells could cost 100 million to 300 million to drill. And when wells are that expensive and these environments are that hostile, you need a lot more science to be used, and when a lot more science is used, they call on core laboratories. We look at their rock properties, their fluid properties to ensure that they recover the optimal amount of oil and gas every day, but more importantly, the amount of maximum oil to be taken out of that reservoir over the life of the production of that well bore. Youre also the First Company ive seen that is actually really starting to make money in iraq. Yes, thats right, jim. We now have 12 projects in iraq. They are some of the most profitable in the company. We are working on the redevelopment of those fields in the south. Some of the big fields there. But also, theres been discoveries in the north up in the kurdistan area. Its difficult to push more oil out of those. However, using core lab technology, were going to show our clients there whats the best way to have maximum recovery from these reservoirs that are undersaturated in natural gas. And youre going back to older fields. I know the north sea. We had statoil on. The north sea is supposed to be running out of oil, but theyre bringing you back in to find more . Thats correct, jim. Were working on a number of projects. A Record Number of projects in the north sea out of our aberdeen advanced technology center. And what were trying to do is lessen the amount of water cut and increase the amount of Oil Production out of some of these old wells. The north sea started to produce oil and gas back in 1975, so it is an aging petroleum province. Aging petroleum provinces are perfect for core lab because our technology will help them as you say squeeze more oil and gas out of those older fields. Last question, a lot of the other companies that i deal with and service, theyve been hurt by weak Natural Gas Prices in the United States. That is not hurting core labs, is it . Thats right, jim, if you look at our technology, its better applied to International Crude Oil related projects. So if you look at our revenue mix right now, we are fully 80 crude oil and 20 natural gas. Half of that natural gas revenue comes from large lng developments like we have novell in the eastern mediterranean, anadarko in east africa, chevron and exxon off the west coast of australia. So these large lng plays play into our strength, as well. Well, ive got to tell you. This is the best quarter ive had you on of all of them. So thank you very much, David Demshur. Thank you so much, jim. Our seventh time has been a real pleasure. The stock tends to get hit after the company reports, and then you buy. I dont know if its going to get hit this time. Thats how good clbs quarter was. David demshur of core labs is bankable and so is the company. Stay with cramer. Coming up, battle of the behemoths.

You cant expect all stocks to be treated fairly, and youd be insane to think all stocks will be treated equally. Thats not how the game works. We have a system where different types of stocks are treated in very different ways. I know this is something that can be incredibly confusing to people. Lets take a moment now to explain using two household tech names that just reported. Im talking about apple and amazon. How does whats happened with these two stocks make sense . Last week apple reports a less than stellar quarter, but they managed to beat the streets estimates. It doesnt matter. Stock gets pounded, falling some 64 points or 12. 4 on a single day. The house of pain. The iphone numbers were a little light at 47. 8 million versus estimates of 48 million, but apple sold more ipads than expected, and the gross margin was better than investors feared, yet the stock still got put through the meat grinder. Then last night, amazon reports a flat out miss. The Company Earned 21 cents when the analysts were looking for 27 cents. The street was expecting to bring in amazon to bring in 22. 6 billion in revenues. They fell short of that number by more than 1. 3 billion smackers. Wow, what a shortfall. Now, amazon has an incredibly lofty valuation, selling for 68 times next years earnings. And thats without backing up the 137 billion in cash theyre sitting on. So youd think when amazon disappoints, it would get hit much, much harder than apple because highmultiple stocks that miss the numbers have much farther to fall. Yet, thats not what happened. Instead, amazon shot up roughly 10 in the aftermarket, not down 10 . Up 10 , as investors decided the quarter was actually a thing of beauty despite the missed numbers. Amazon managed to deliver higher Gross Margins, what they make after the cost of sale, and finished todays session at 272, up 12. 41. How the heck does that make sense . Isnt this just another example of the markets utter ridiculousness . No. It would be crazy if apple and amazon were playing by the same set of rules, but theyre not. Amazon is viewed correctly as a turbocharged growth stock. Its taking share and investing huge sums of money to build out its business in order to become the premier global ecommerce and fulfillment company. And when you have that kind of growth trajectory, the market will let you get away with almost anything. Apple used to be viewed as a growth stock just like amazon, hence the long run up to 700. But now its lost the patina of growth. People are skeptical. Theyre asking questions, theyre demanding answers, particularly why apple isnt using all that cash to get more growth or earnings or something. Because it isnt doing diddly right now. Amazon, their growth is seen as real and sustainable. Let me drill down so you understand this growth nongrowth dichotomy because its really important. Amazon can get away with so much more than apple because they still got that aura of growth. For example, amazon can say theyre investing in china. Give us no more detail than that. People lap it up. Yet, we demand to know exactly how many iphones apple is selling in china right now to the unit. Amazon can say they cant keep up with demand for the paper white, the ereader, and nothing more, give us no other details. Who knows how many theyve made, sold, how much money theyre making on them . Can you imagine if apple didnt spell out how many tablets it sold . If apple didnt make enough, we would call them idiots for missing the whole holiday season. When asked if theyre going to have new devices, amazon says stay tuned. We would tar and feather Apple Management if they said Something Like that. Meanwhile, we are so worried about apple maintaining the huge Gross Margins it has. Were thrilled amazon shows us a teeny weeny increase. We want apple to predict with great certainty how many devices itll sell. But amazon, it makes a point within the text, not the boilerplate opening, that its not possible to accurately predict demand and therefore actual results that could differ materially from our guidance. This right after apple says its going to give very realistic guidance. How much is amazon making on its third party fulfillment, meaning letting others tap into the supply chain to deliver goods quickly . How about, oh, hundreds of millions of units worth, tens of billions of dollars . What is this like mcdonalds selling billions and billions of burgers . Does that count as disclosure too . Lets try to pin amazon down. They did in a previous release give us a detailed breakdown of what theyre doing. We learned, for instance, that Third Party Sellers sold enough santa hats to be able to wear a new hat for santa, to be able to wear a new hat every day for the next 137 years. Number of santa hats per share ratio. They sold enough guitar picks to give one to every attender of woodstock. The old price to pick analysis. They sold enough tea lights to keep a votive illuminated continuously for over 200 years. The allimportant votive to sales ratio does amazon make more money fulfilling other peoples products than their own . Thats for us to know and you to find out. Thats how the company works. We did find out that ebooks are up big and amazon owns the ebook category. But how big . Guess again. Sorry, none of your beeswax. Amazons Conference Call had fewer facts than a Donald Rumsfeld speech. So what gives here . Well, first, they can get away with it because amazon has virtually no competitors, which means when they want to, they can start showing all the earnings they want. They just have to stop spending to invest in new business. But like netflix and salesforce. Com, the other two spendaholics, amazon wants to take over the world. That costs money. Apple, apples like a realist painter. Winslow homer, rembrandt, the four walls of the canvas. Its trapped in an unfair world of realism. Amazon, its an abstract artist. Its a rothko. And its share price defies what you would expect at conventional stock auctions. Amazon still has the visionary founder and ceo. Netflix, another highflier, it has its founder Reid Hastings at the helm still, salesforce. Com, marc benioff calling the shots. Amazon has visionary bezos, and the price can be infinite, bezos, laughing all the way to the bank. Apple has real competition from samsung, with an android operating system from the visionaries at google. Sure the markets big, but samsungs beating apple in cell phone share and perhaps more important, apples phones may not be good enough to take that share back. Tablets are terrific. But apples lost the invinceability that extends to the tablet market. Apple has compounded the problem by releasing a faulty map app, a new cord, and i like the old one, and a disliked itunes iteration. Its no longer the only game in town. Amazons total Addressable Market if it can perfect sameday delivery, which it is going to do with all of these warehouses, is literally all of retail, everything, everything sold at costco, walmart, supermarket, department store, food store, Hardware Store around the globe. Maybe one day amazon will sell houses and boats if u. P. S. Can figure out a way to deliver them. The Addressable Market may be no larger than the personal computer and cell phone replacement segment. And many think in a few years, those markets will be saturated. Nobody will be able to get the cheap capital again to build the network that amazons building. The moat, its huge, they live in camelot. Apple lives in a well populated neighborhood. The market says theyre on the wrong side of the tech tracks, even as i know only one person who uses anything except apple and thats steve balmer, my College Friend who runs microsoft. I didnt hear anything from blackberry today that would convince me the erosion wont continue. But the markets saying so what. Apples a has been and amazons future has never been brighter. Amazon makes money selling the eblades, the Business Model is loved. Apple, though, is a razor. Apple has to constantly innovate, but the old razors are working real well with the new blades. The valuations for amazon, anything, eye of the beholder. If apple wants to regain the patina of growth, apples sitting on 137 billion of cash, amazons market cap, 123 billion, apple should buy amazon. Something to restore the companys status as an invulnerable growth stock. Heres the bottom line. Life is unfair. The great stock prognosticator jimmy carter told us that. Amazon vs. Apple is living proof. I say cry me a river the size of the amazon because apples rainforest eco system is being challenged by development everywhere. When you have turbocharged growth, you can get away with anything, and reality places no limits on how high your stock can go. Apple should bite the bullet and buy amazon, and hey, they could keep jeff bezos as ceo restoring the stocks visionary premium. John in illinois. John . Caller hey, jim, how you doing . All right, whats going on . Caller i got a crazed super computer for you, man. Company headquartered out in seattle, washington, i did a little homework on it. I found good cash, little or no debt. But the one thing that stood out to me, i was wondering because of the limited possible limited market is the future growth. Is it can we see no, you know what . I think you got a winner, but i think you should take half off the table. I looked at that company before, im shocked its gotten this high. I think its too risky. I want you to cut it in half. Sometimes the market isnt fair. The market wants growth, amazon has it. Apple, its got enough, but ive got to tell you, the market regards it as subpar growth now. And apple, look, if they want to do it if they want to get it back, theyve got some real work to do. Stay with cramer.

Somewhere the gods are having a belly laugh in irony. Theyre sitting back and cackling about how on the exact same day that Aubrey Mcclendon departs chesapeake energy, Kinder Morgan is snapping up the pipeline partner in order to get much bigger in the very business mcclendon personified. Whats so comical and twisted about this . Aubrey mcclendon built chesapeake on the notion of rising demand and rising prices of natural gas and natural gas liquids would make the business he cofounded into the greatest independent oil and gas company on earth. He had already made chesapeake into the second largest producer of natural gas in the country after exxon mobil, but prices didnt rise for natural gas or natural gas liquids, the feed stock used to make all kinds of plastics. Instead, they plummeted. Aubrey had bet the company on the idea that natural gas would not only become the dominant power generating fuel it is becoming, overtaking coal, but it would also become a major surface vehicle fuel, the latter which makes so much sense, simply didnt happen or take off in time to boost chesapeake. Aubrey is saying hes retired, but other sources are saying he was forced out. A victim of the wildcatting ways that have always been his hallmark. But just at the exact moment when he departs, rich kinder, the acknowledged dean of the oil and gas complex in the u. S. Swoops up the partner in pipelines in order to get more exposure to the transfer of, you guessed it, natural gas and natural gas liquids from the Eagle Ford Shale among others, two refineries that can turn fuel into plastic. Kinders saying the revolution that aubrey bet his company on is now upon us. Aubrey didnt get there in time. I believe that chesapeakes boards decision to remove the man who has discovered more nat gas and liquids than anyone else on earth will mark the bottom in pricing for oily natural gas. Kinder morgan knows they will need that pipe from the big oily fields in this country before it commits to a huge industrial buildout to take advantage of the cheapness of our natural gas. His timing, its as exquisite as chesapeakes is awful. You cant blame the board for its actions with aubrey. We know they always like the assets, but they chafed against the man who found them. He pretty much told us that when we visited him in ohios utica shale last year. And while chesapeake has excellent prospects, aubrey had indeed overstretched the Balance Sheet and the company had been in retreat mode to meet its cash flow obligations. Mcclendon bet the style rankled the board. All that said, though, chesapeake can survive and even thrive if rich kinders right about the copano buy. I think he will be. We havent seen the last of Aubrey Mcclendon. We havent seen the last of chesapeake. It will downsize but remain a key oil and gas producer. But the real victory here is rich kinder. He can take advantage of all of that drilling that aubrey and so many others have done and bring that newfound oil and gas to market, making a real killing for the shareholders and partners. Kinders gotten to the Promised Land that aubrey dreamed of. His Kinder Morgan partners is the winner and chesapeake the loser in the amazing United States oil renaissance. Stick with cramer.
