On CNBC's Mad Money, Jim Cramer said during the Lightning Round that Lithia Motors Inc
LAD is “way too speculative for you. I'd go with Carmax
KMX or with AutoNation
AN."
For Kinder Morgan Energy Partners
KMP, Jim said, "People didn't like the secondary. I say that's nonsense, I say buy, buy, buy."
Cramer advises investors to sell Valero Energy
VLO. He added, “We don't want to own any refiners right now."
For Alcoa
AAAdvertisement
, he said, "I'm a believer. I remain a buyer. It's an awful acting stock, though."
Jim said that Estee Lauder
EL “fits the barbell thesis; they cater to the high end. I'd be a buyer."
For Micron Technology
MU, Jim said, "That trade is over and we're not looking back. Sell, sell, sell."
Cramer likes Cheesecake Factory
CAKE. He added, “I'd be a buyer with raw costs coming down."
For Johnson Controls
JCI, Jim said, "I think if there wasn't an auto bear market I'd be a buyer. I think it's stalled here."
He believes that HCA Holdings
HCA has “got a lot of growth. I'm a buyer."
