Jim Cramer's Mad Money Review

"It's not an easy market to invest in," Cramer said. "Normally I'd say Wimm-Bill-Dann Foods(WBD)," but it has "a lot of debt."

Instead, Cramer recommended vodka retailer Central European Distribution(CEDC). "CEDC made the quarter," he said. "CEDC is hitting the ball out of the park." It does have a debt issue, but "unlike Wimm-Bill-Dann, this one's going to be able to pay it."

"They're drinking more and more in Russia ," Cramer said. "Maybe that's because of hard times or maybe it's because CEDC has a great product."

Cramer predicts 2009 will be the year for wind power, although the difficulty is finding a pure play on the best form of renewable energy. Industrial bearings producer KDN currently has a grip on half the market for wind turbine bearings, and while less than 10% of revenues come from wind, this figure is expected to double next year and triple in two years according to Cramer's low-ball estimates. While KDN is nearing its 52-week high, it is trading at a mere 19 times next year's earnings with a 14.5% growth rate, and is cheap.
New Tech Wonder: SPX (SPW) Corp.
Cramer says SPX is the ultimate new tech stock, since it is levered to things people actually need, such as clean drinking water, alternative energy and power transformers. Its four major divisions are flow technology, test and measurement, thermal equipment and industrial products and services, and Merrill Lynch recently stated SPX Corp is the best leveraged to global power markets in our coverage universe. Cramer is bullish on SPW, but warned investors not to pay too much for the stock, which is thinly traded.
Revisiting Russian Stocks: Mechel (MTL), Wimm-Bill-Dann Foods (WBD), Central European Distribution (CEDC), Central European Media (CETV), CTC Media (CTCM)
Cramer was happy to report the five Russian stocks he recommended on Apri 7th were up an average of 13.7% while the S&P 500 rose only 1%. Still, the mini-portfolio needs trimming, and Cramer would get rid of CTC Media because of its poor performance and because he should not have picked two media stocks. CTCM only has 12-13% market share and recently overpaid for an acquisition. Cramer would keep the rest of the Russian stocks, but would happily let CTC defect.
