Jim Cramer's Mad Money Review

A Reliab-Oil Stock: XTO Energy (NYSE: XTO - News)
Cramer says he has finally found the "perfect" oil company which takes advantage of high oil prices by exploiting new properties rather than just buying back stock. XTO has risen 14% since Cramer recommended it in March, and with its recent acquisition of Dominion Resources, it should see double-digit growth for four or five years, according to Cramer.
Interview with Duncan Niederauer, president and co-COO of NYSE Euronext (NYSE: NYX - News)
Cramer's growth stock for 2007, NYX, is down 15%, but he is not backing away. While Euronext is growing rapidly, Cramer admits NYX is turning into the "worst performing" stock he's seen. Duncan Niederauer commented NYX is the only multi-product exchange; "It's still a wonderfully scaleable business, and a lot of the market doesn't know how to evaluate us because we're not quite as attractive as the derivative-only exchanges," he told Cramer. However, he added that NYX is still more attractive than the equity-only exchanges. Concerning derivatives, Niederauer said, "The U.S. futures market is still a hole in our global footprint .... The only way in is an acquisition." Cramer commented on how rapidly NYX drops, and Niederauer conceded NYX "trades in a very choppy way for a large-cap company." Although he can't predict when NYX will start moving up, Cramer says he is sticking with NYX.
Sell Block: Norfolk Southern (NYSE: NSC - News), Johnson & Johnson (NYSE: JNJ - News), Guess? (NYSE: GES - News), Monster Worldwide (NasdaqGS: MNST - News)
While Cramer's predictions of NSC 's and JNJ 's declines were fulfilled, and GES jumped as he expected, Cramer admitted he missed "the big one" of the week, namely, the selloff and vitality in the bond market. The lesson from this error is "You ignore what the big institutional investors are doing at your own peril," Cramer said, and added investors should not overlook the bond market. Cramer is still hopeful that MNST will win a bid and believes the new CFO,Timothy Yates, will make moves toward selling the company.
Mad Mail: Wal-Mart (NYSE: WMT - News), Target (NYSE: TGT - News), Lowes (NYSE: LOW - News), Verizon (NYSE: VZ - News)
Cramer says WMT's risk reward is superior to TGT's, which should be sold because it has increased substantially. Since WMT is not currently buildng new stores, the company can buy back stock and revamp its existing stores. Cramer adds he also likes LOW. He told another viewer Verizon has a solid yield and increasing growth. Concerning what action to take in the decline, Cramer coached his viewers; "Let it come in -- let the market open down ... If it opens up, do some selling. Don't do any buying. I'll tell you when I think it's overdone."

Lear (NYSE: LEA - News), Time Warner (NYSE: TWX - News), WCI Communications (NYSE: WCI - News), Lennar (NYSE: LEN - News)
Cramer says that it is a good idea to piggyback off of financial wizards such as Carl Icahn who made good calls with Lear and TWX and is currently buying WCI. However, he stressed that it is important to understand why Icahn likes this upscale homebuilder which owns 86% of its properties. Cramer notes that WCI is sitting on a pile of real estate, is selling at below book value, and predicts that the stock will eventually be more valuable than the properties. While some are worried about Florida real estate, Cramer observes that Lennar recently made a successful Florida investment. An important rule in piggybacking, says Cramer, is to wait for the hype to pass before investing; Icahn bought WCI when it was four points lower, andit is now nearly $22.

Genentech (NYSE: DNA - News)
After enjoying a successful year, DNA is lower than it has been in the last 14 months, and Cramer attributes this to the market's subjectivity, especially since the company was expected to see 30% growth and it actually reported 70% growth. Cramer explained that the factors affecting the movement of a stock are its earnings and its multiple. Since DNA reported strong earnings, its multiple, or what people are willing to pay for the earnings, must have been a factor in its decline. A multiple is affected by three kinds of risk: political, earnings and inflation. Cramer eliminated earnings risks from the equation, said that inflationary risks affect future earnings and have peaked, and that worries about the Democrats hurting DNA have abated. Cramer concluded that DNA is heading back up to where it was 14 months ago, called it a best-of-breed biotech stock with a great pipeline. His conservative estimate is that DNA will go to $104 from $87.53 and his bullish figure is $140.

Sell Block:Guess? (NYSE: GES - News), XM Satellite Radio (NASDAQ: XMSR - News), Interpublic Group of Companies (NYSE: IPG - News), Deere (NYSE: DE - News)
Cramer would sell Guess after it rose 38.7% since his initial recommendation. He would get rid of XMSR because it has "run out of steam." Although IPG may have some upside, Cramer would take profits and sell it. He has liked DE for a long time, but Cramer says that it is time to say goodbye. Although it might go up an other 8 points, Cramer says that this $100 stock has given its investors substantial profits.Mad Mail: Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL - News)
Cramer disagrees with an Investors' Business Daily bullish call on tech; "I like IBD very much but think they are wrong here," he said. When asked who is selling Apple, Cramer says that the shorts are putting pressure on the stock, adding that it should not have risen 8 points on the release of iPhone and its negative guidance may be bringing it down. However, he would build a position on the stock as it declines.
