This is a review of Cramer calls this week, and a link has been provided for each individual story if you missed it during the week.  Friday’s show looks like it was a pre-taped show or re-run more on stratgey than on stocks.

Cramer said Friday he thinks that Caterpillar (CAT) looked fine.

MRV Communications said Friday it would IPO its Luminent unit, they must have been watching Cramer a couple weeks ago.

On Thursday’s SELL BLOCK, Cramer updates positions he has been in.  Most of his sell block recommendations are not full sells.  He comments on Goldman Sachs (GS), Blockbuster (BBI), Rite-Aid (RAD), eBay (EBAY); although he called Constellation (STZ) a triple sell.

Cramer counted down his favorite FOREIGN stocks for US investors: #1 Toyota (TM), #2 Diageo (DEO), #3 Bank of Nova Scotia (BNS), #4 CVRD (RIO), NTL Inc. (NTLI).

He defended Brunswick (BC) on Thursday.

Jimbo went  out on limb and predicted that a private equity buyer would pay $25.00 to acquire Gap Inc. (GPS) In 6-months.

On Wednesday, Cramer gave a buy thesis for two chip names: Marvell (MRVL) and Broadcom (BRCM).

Cramer made the argument that Tyco (TYC) is one to play the split-up on.

Cramer really kicked the ethanol stocks by calling them a joke.  They were running up too much ahead of the State of the Union speech.

He made a note after Texas Instruments (TXN) got earnings out that you could look at buying some tech.

Cramer noted the start of the week that oil service names like Schlumberger (SLB) were in good shape.  He keeps talking about TransOcean too (RIG).

At the start of the week Cramer showed how he thinks Capital One (COF) could go to $100.00.

Cramer said he was a believer in Ceradyne (CRDN) and interviewed the CEO after a downgrade knocked the stock.

Cramer started the week with a note that if Chuck Prince would leave Citigroup (C) it would be worth $5.00.

Cramer made a pretty big call on the DJIA, but he must have been speaking about multi-year because it was 17,000.

Cramer would want you to have a Booyah weekend.
