Cramer Likes This Miner

On today’s STOP TRADING segment on CNBC, Jim Cramer said he hates miners (earth diggers, not kids) because of the leverage to BRIC areas that are perceived; but he does have one that he actually likes.  The one he likes is CVRD-Companhia Vale do Rio Doce  (RIO-NYSE/ADR) because of it having the nickel monopoly in the world that gets to hoard and make up its own pricing.

High dividend and defensive stocks KO, PG, & XOM are tickers he noted favorably again.  On Sprint NexTel (S), Cramer said the stock is up because it was an amazingly good quarter for a bad company and he doesn’t think it should be independent.  He still likes Level 3 (LVLT).
