“Today was a day to celebrate owning the stocks of the best companies out there – not to short them – and, of course, to mourn the short sellers who bet against them simply to be Jimmy Chill contrarians,” Cramer said. Jimmy Chill is a nickname given to Cramer.

All three companies are among Cramer’s favorite stocks.

Cramer noted that there are “some funny guys” on Twitter who always advise investors to short any stocks he recommends.
