Cramer's 'Mad Money' Recap: A Playbook for Market Insanity

Cramer's 'Mad Money' Recap: A Playbook for Market Insanity


NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- "We need a new playbook to deal with this roller coaster of a market," Jim Cramer told the viewers of his "Mad Money" TV show Wednesday.
He said investors can't afford to get caught up in the day-to-day gyrations of markets, they need to stick with stocks with great long-term secular growth stories.
According to Cramer, the markets have just gotten too hard for anyone other than the nimblest of day traders to tackle on a daily basis. He said that his viewers need to stick with stocks that are working, and that means stocks that are uniquely domestic, have strong growth, or do well when the rest of the market panics.
For example, Cramer said the generic drug makers, stocks like Teva Pharmaceuticals (TEVA), a stock which he owns for his charitable trust, Action Alerts PLUS, will do well in this market since governments are still trying to save on health care costs.
