On tonight’s MAD MONEY on CNBC, Jim Cramer wanted to look for stocks with both appreciation potential that also offer capital preservation. He, just like us, believes we are starting to price in a Fed-led recession. Here is looking for names with catalysts that make the stocks interesting and worth a look, plus he wants them to out-yield treasuries notes (noted the 10-year treasury at 3.87%). His 4 stocks are as follows:
Most of these were also listed as the DOGS OF THE DOW, and we gave our own synopsis on these with notes on each that show the relative dividend yields. We also gave an average Wall Street price target and a "simple return" on price appreciation with each of these if the price jumped there suddenly. We also gave our own updated list of roughly 10 stocks for the first part of 2008 that are the a673b.bigscoots-temp.com list of Defensive Stocks With An Eye For VALUE INVESTORS on these. The goal is the same with yield and appreciation, but we also went for the value aspect of each name because we’ve noted how there is starting to be a valuation bubble in many of the traditional defensive stocks.

The average American spends $17,274 on debit cards a year, and it’s a HUGE mistake. First, debit cards don’t have the same fraud protections as credit cards. Once your money is gone, it’s gone. But more importantly you can actually get something back from this spending every time you swipe.
Issuers are handing out wild bonuses right now. With some you can earn up to 5% back on every purchase. That’s like getting a 5% discount on everything you buy!
Our top pick is kind of hard to imagine. Not only does it pay up to 5% back, it also includes a $200 cash back reward in the first six months, a 0% intro APR, and…. $0 annual fee. It’s quite literally free money for any one that uses a card regularly. Click here to learn more!
