On today’s STOP TRADING segment on CNBC, Jim Cramer has a pretty tall call: he thinks instead of hoping for a Verizon (NYSE:VZ) buyout that was reported/misreported this morning, you should be buying Sprint Nextel (NYSE:S) as the more likely play to be bought by private equity or by an overseas operator wanting into the U.S. Sprint Nextel (NYSE:S) already has a market cap of $64+ Billion before his call. He thinks that many companies could make this acquisition.
Cramer also said he thinks that Coca-Cola (NYSE:KO) could trade up to $55.00 by week-end after earnings because all the brokers will reiterate their buy ratings after the company beats earnings and raises guidance because of the weak dollar.
