Cramer noted that Dow Chemical (DOW-NYSE) this last round of firing over unauthorized merger talk engagements of talks signals that this means the ousted executives could lead a deal to take DOW private. Otherwise this would be down on the news.
If you look at Citigroup (C-NYSE) it is a pro-stagnation board, which is why the stock is down.
Pepsico (PEP-NYSE) was a great Sanford Bernstein call according to Cramer, but that is because Cramer recently went over this positively.
As far as Gap (GPS-NYSE), Cramer thinks that Old Navy is coming back (yuck, I hope not). The same store sales were well above estimates according to him.
On MGIC Investment (MTG-NYSE) Cramer said that stock should be down, not up, after missing numbers.
