Cramer: Monster Options Signal a Buyout (MNST)

On today’s STOP TRADING segment on CNBC, Jim Cramer’s "monster call" is pertaining to Monster Worldwide (MNST-NASDAQ).  Cramer said the options activity in Monster Worldwide is signaling a Gannett (GCI) or Google (GOOG) buyout may be coming.  The accumulation is so great and this could be a great buyout for them.  Even eBay (EBAY) could get involved according to Cramer.  The call options that traded today would indicate that this deal could come at north of $55 per share within the next 35 days.  Shares are up 9% on the day now at $48.00+.  He first touted the need for this merger back on April 17.

Credit Card Companies Are Doing Something Nuts

Credit card companies are at war. The biggest issuers are handing out free rewards and benefits to win the best customers.

It’s possible to find cards paying unlimited 1.5%, 2%, and even more today. That’s free money for qualified borrowers, and the type of thing that would be crazy to pass up. Those rewards can add up to thousands of dollars every year in free money, and include other benefits as well.

We’ve assembled some of the best credit cards for users today.  Don’t miss these offers because they won’t be this good forever.
