Cramer Talks Alcoa (AA)

On today’s Wall Street Confidential video on TheStreet.com Jim Cramer noted Alcoa (AA).  Cramer said this was an undermanaged company and this might not be able to be resisted; it’s a country club that needs to change.  Cramer thinks Rio Tinto (RTP) is the more likely buyer.  On 3M (MMM) Cramer doesn’t like the buyback; the quarter was really bad and they are selling the good properties to maintain its bad ones.  The buyback isn’t a good one because the business isnt well run; he’d take the profit on the pop.   On General Motors (GM) Cramer said it has decided to be a small company and GM might want to consider Chrysler if DaimlerChrysler (DCX) spins it out because it could be am interesting buy for GM.  GM can make more money as a smaller auto maker than as the largest, so that contradicts the ‘smaller company’ depending on how you take it.
