Cramer on tonight’s MAD MONEY on CNBC said he got stumped on a question about water holdings when he was at UT in Texas. He has a stock now called Pico Holdings (PICO-NASDAQ) that could be a winner. He said he will not endorse it though because it is very small and very thin. They hold water rights in Arizona.
This one actually holds other investments as well that has rallied 300% in the last few years. Its water resource and storage unit is the main one that resells water and they are not a regulated water utility; it finished a 35-mile water pipeline last year; it holds real estate and insurance as well. It priced a secondary at $37.50 earlier in the month and he thinks it can go higher, but because it is so small Cramer says it is very risky and it is only followed by 1 analyst. Cramer thinks it could be a sleeping giant or it could stay dormant for years and years, so he reminds about the risk.
PICO traded up 3% to almost $45.00 after closing up 2% at $43.61.

Every day you don’t move to a high-yield savings account that beats inflation, you lose more and more value.

Click here to see how much more you could be earning on your savings today. It takes just a few minutes and your money could be working for you.
