Stock Tickers: ASD, LOW, FO, KO, MA
On today’s STOP TRADING on CNBC, Cramer said that American Standard (ASD) is a stealth housing play where they are splitting themselves up at the bottom. Cramer thinks this one is good, but he wants to avoid the other housing stocks and other homebuilders. As far as remodels, this one will benefit from remodelling as they are big into bathrooms. Cramer thinks American Standard sells very well at Lowe’s (LOW) and LOW hasn’t gone back to recent stock lows. He thinks this home weakness is still weighing on Fortune Brands (FO).
If the weak dollar persists, Cramer said the best play for this isCoca-Cola (KO). He thinks the numbers ahead will drive the stock up to$55.00 or even potentially up to $60.00.
Cramer also noted that MAsterCard (MA) is signaling that its itsproblems are behind it. He thinks it is cheap and it is one of hisfavorite names right now.
