my mission is simple, to make you money. i'm here to level the playing field for all investors. there's always a bull market somewhere, and i promise to help you find it. "mad money" starts now. hey, i'm cramer. welcome to "mad money." welcome to cramerica. other people want to make friends. i just want to make you a little money. my job is not just to entertain you, but to teach you. call me at 1-800-743-cnbc. you know why it's so easy to hate this market? do you know why people are shamelessly promoting chart comparisons to 1929? i kid you not. i'm getting charts by the hour.

or why there is so much fretting that the nasdaq is back to the fated 4,000 level. not far from the ridiculous heights of 2000. it's simple. on the seemingly endless record setting days like today, the smart money is angry. yes. the smart money is furious. oh, they are mean, they're mad, they're angry. [ booing ] why? they are jealous of the dumb money that's buying stocks and those stocks are going higher. all sorts of stocks. it's just infuriating to the people who do this stuff for a living, the pros. they hate what's happening now in this market. it's not supposed to happen. let me give you five real-life examples of things that shouldn't be happening according to the so-called smart money. starting with amazon. it hit another all-time high and nothing aggravates these guys more than amazon going higher. amazon is despised by brilliant

people who know better. they know much better than bezos. the intelligentsia refuse to acknowledge the incredible run the company isn't making money. we deal with merchants stuck if they embraced the business model. it excuses behavior. amazon is threatening to do same-day food delivery forever, but they haven't. maybe they can't do it effectively on a large scale without losing money. and other companies would be slammed. amazon gets away with tinkering, maybe for years, until they get it right. if that's not galling enough, let's the talk about what's really propelling amazon right here. the weather! we are featuring the weather every hour today. big storms all over the place. so big it might impact black friday, the shopping day in america. what have we learned when we are shut in because of bad weather? we shop on amazon. these days, the retail investor is coming back after a dozen-year absence. what do they do?

they buy what they like. what fools these retail investors be. actually no. this is a winning strategy now. the intelligentsia argue that this amount of buying is wrong, stupid, shouldn't count, but it does count and it's working. amazon is going higher. how can that be wrong? that's what we are looking for. sometimes they get me so angry. i think we are looking for stocks to go higher. what are we supposed to do? should i be recommending stocks to go lower? hot out how about stocks that go slowly? how about stocks that do nothing? those must be loved. i applaud people who look for stocks that go higher. the goal is to make money, not feel smart. do you know who the wise people remind me of? charlie the tuna. the debonair, urbane tuna fish with fabulous taste. the starkist company didn't want tuna with good taste. it wanted good-tasting tuna.

these super brilliant investors are just like charlie. they have fabulous taste. do you know what i say? sorry, charlie. this isn't about good taste. it's about what tastes good. that's amazon. the incredible gains it gives you. i find them mouth-watering. second example, netflix. weather is bad. don't go see "catching fire." it's too wet, too cold, too whatever. so stay home and watch netflix. go ask your kids if they love netflix. no one wants to ask his kids anything. what do they know about security analysis? i say we are in a buy what you like environment. i'm helpless to stop that trend. can we acknowledge that's what's happening and maybe try to profit from it? what's wrong with that? oh! cramer is gaming the process. the smart money types are just gaming a process that says historically the stocks are overvalued. it's a game. but that game isn't as good as the one with i'm watching. the pros are watching the redskins lose to the 49ers game. me, i'm watching the patriots beat the broncos.

better game. tune in. third, nothing freaks out the geniuses who called the trillion dollar shots more than when retail investors buy stocks of companies that make warm weather clothing when it's cold, even though they are up a lot. they are apoplectic about decker's. they can't believe you can make money on companies that make north face and uggs. trading the weather is too pedestrian for them. prosaic. these pros are all about degrees of difficulty. they are doing belly flops and making money. it's ridiculous. they haven't done the work. they will meet the same fate as those poor fools who bought lions gate at the opening of "the hunger games." this is not about a triple louganis. it's entirely possible that the stocks might be -- are you ready, ski-daddy -- attractively priced.

to all of the skiers out there, i'm sorry. this mere entertainer that is jim cramer thinks he does good stocks. my bad. for example, the work day. someone is not a retail name. work day is worse. it's a total anathema to the wise men. it's a cloud play with accelerated revenue taking share from the cheap solid lovable oracle, the brilliant witty, well schooled charlie's school, charlie's, fish. work day is worse than the stock salesforce.com that cramer likes. of course the stock is up 800% since i liked it. why do they hate workday? because it doesn't play by the rules. it's going off the cloud-based human resources system that's cheaper and better than oracle, but oracle only sells at 12 times earning with a ton of cash, dividend. workday has none of that. just revenues when the cloud

market is revealed as a giant fraud. i don't blame the wise and wonderful ones. i had to study workday before i sat down with neil last week. give me a break. what does this company got over paychex? growth that can stretch for years with the pedigree of two ceos who invented the software. it got hit with with a hostile takeover bid from oracle. it's reasonable that the work day can capture them back. what can i say? after doing the homework and visiting with management, i understand why the longs could be right versus the shorts, who are choking. this stock rallied more than 10% today because intelligentsia shorted. the big growth mutual funds lapped it up. sorry, charlie. finally hain celestial. it's growing too fast for bears who were convinced irwin simon has to be hiding something with the acquisitions in the natural organic space. he's not moving fast enough in my mind. he needs to dominate every aisle of the supermarket. they are craving natural and

organic, real natural and organic, and he's got it. he's got to dominate. in the meantime a price war is the best news for hain. smart money hated it at 30, 50, 70 and now 82. they detest it. why not? aren't they more right? in their incredibly intelligent, twisted way, i guess so. for a dozen years we had a market where it was taboo to make money the way retail investors are now. they want to tell you that when you play with fire like this, someone gets burned and it will be you. that when you have this good a time, someone always gets hurt. to which i say, listen, we have been eating good tuna all year. we aren't stopping now. sorry, charlie. how about corey in new jersey. >> caller: hey, jim. how's it going? >> are you from around the block? >> caller: yeah i am. >> really? >> caller: yeah. zulilly, ipo earlier this month, gained 72% in the ipo.

i wonder if you think it is a buy and could be a growth stock like amazon.com or if you think it's just overvalued. >> it is not my fave. if i'm going to buy overvalued i'm going for the container store. let me be very clear. overvalued on near term numbers, not necessarily on the out years. i value things on the out years. i think by that take the new crop of stocks aren't as good as five below which is one of my favorites, or let's get down to it. costco. can i go to paul in california? paul. >> caller: hi, jim. paul from california. how you doing? >> couldn't be better. happy thanksgiving to you. >> caller: you, too. i talked to you once before about illinois tube works. there is news about them today about private equity firms and the industrial packaging unit and a bidding war. what do you think of that short and long-term? >> that won't do anything. what will do something is the earnings stream they have.

the packaging is really important. this is the kind of company that is doing well now. it's an international company based in the united states with worldwide operations that are just killing it. i say stay long itw. there are lots of snobs on wall street. many of them are the guys who think you, the retail investor, the little guy, aren't smart enough to figure out what makes money in the market. how is that working for them? why don't we stick together? see you later, charlie. "mad money" will be back. >> announcer: coming up, heated exchange? when the wall street big shots square off on a stock, it can open opportunities for home gamers to profit, and sparks are flying right now over alcoa. so is it your chance to buy into a solid story, or could it melt away? later, go, go gadget. the all out assault on apple kept its stock flat for most of the year.

but is the one-time titan of the touchscreen finally about to break out as the extreme shopping season gets into high gear? or should it be left on the shelf? plus, golden goose? investors have all but given up on the shiny stuff, down over 25% this year. could it be about to glisten? cramer is searching for signals when he goes off the charts. all coming up on "mad money." don't miss a second of "mad money," follow @jimcramer on twitter. have a question? tweet cramer, #madtweets. send jim an email to madmoney@cnbc.com or give us a call at 1-800-743-cnbc. miss something? head to madmoney.cnbc.com. ya know, with new fedex one rate

who do you believe? who do you trust in this business? it's so hard to know that i can't blame anyone for worrying about stocks they own. the case can always be made for either side. i'm not kidding.

i could make it face to face for this one or that one. take last night. we had irwin simon on, the man behind hain celestial. it's given you 2,400% including it's given you 2,400% since it came public, including a 52% gain this year. a public company that went from $3,000 to $2 million in a 20-year span. it's gone from being a small player in a small aisle to the dead aisle to being the largest provider to whole foods and costco and now walmart as everyone embraces organic and natural foods. this is a success story. or is it? a dow jones publication slammed them for making acquisitions that suggest the company is ripe for a fall. what are they doing that we should worry about? the article says they are stocking the shelves of new distribution channels including walmart in the hopes that middle america will cotton to health

food after the channel fill is over. so it's now being cited as a negative. no matter that the ceo of costco said organic and natural is here to stay. hain figures into every cash register in just about every store that sells food. nope, according to this story, simon channel stuffing walmart to get short-term results. how about the fact that the stock is up 33% since the publication trashed hain with a cover story about how they are hiding their own deterioration. amazing. simon making a series of smaller acquisitions. he's getting knocked silly by the press. last year campbell's soup bought bolthouse farms, and then reports a hideous quarter with no real growth from the acquisition. that's worthy of criticism

unlike the integration by hain. oh, by the way, at what point does simon get the benefit of the doubt for what he built? maybe never. how about this. herbal life. you have a big hedge fund manager. he intends to take it to the end of the earth. why? he thinks herbalife is a ponzi scheme, a business about not selling anything, just recruiting people to recruit others with the nutritional supplements as a side show. and then there is the former chairman who bought 6.3% of herbalife, and wants to help the company bring up value. bill sears is to food but now that warren buffett owns heinz that label may not hold up. herbalife is waiting for a clean opinion on the financials because of acquisitions of fraud that audits the books. it has nothing to do with herbalife. once the audit comes back clean and there are no allegations by anyone that says it won't they will try to unlock the value in

this very inexpensive company. who's right? is herbalife a fraudulent scheme or cheap stock being kept under a cloud by a hedge fund that wants to make the quarterly numbers? this is simple. if ackman can convince them it is a fraud maybe he can get the business shut down, and he wins. but the company gets 80% of sales from overseas. if they miss the numbers he could win. not going to zero with that. if it gets a clean bill of health the bulls make a killing. same thing in green mountain coffee. it's been brought to my attention by herb greenberg. the bulls insist that green mountain's business is growing and the bears say it is a step from the grave. the fundamentals seem to have turned dramatically in favor for the better. green mountain announced a billion dollar buy back and a decent dividend. like hain the bears say the

earnings were low quality while the dividend and buyback masked weakness. for the life of me i don't know how that could be the case. but the case is being made that the beauty is only skin deep. i took heat when i said on "squawk on the street" that what should matter is that green mountain's main product, the keurig model is coming on well. and it is a sign of health. little did i know, according to bears, these are signs of ill health. they say, jim, do your homework. finally alcoa. they were at 8.11. deutsche bank put it to a sell. the downgrade assumed the efforts to make itself into less of a commodity play weren't working, and the company could be worth more if it breaks up. but the split isn't viable based on the analysts projections. he was wrong about the sensitivity to the price of

aluminum and the dollar and forget that the stock is up 18% since the downgrade. you have an indictment of the job that the ceo is doing to turn the company around. he thinks the company is worth more dead than -- dead. then consider the upgrade using the $11 target from goldman sachs. it was a more accurate depiction of what happened. many initiatives are paying off. i admit to being biased in favor of all four of these battlegrounds. i think the growth in hain is unimpeded. i'm not going to think buybacks and dividends are dodges and i would not sell alcoa. i would buy it. but reading both sides and getting comfortable with the risks and rewards before you buy, you are making yourself a better investor. my bottom line is simple. you can't be sure who to trust except for you -- yourself. the bears reports cause you to worry about your position, to the point where you will dump your position next time you hear the same attack. don't buy. if you are certain in your

conviction, the repetition of the negativity gives you a better price to buy more. know thyself. that's how the best investors triumph regardless of direction for or against a stock. justin in connecticut. >> caller: a big connecticut husky boo-yah, jim. >> i'm liking that. we have huskies fans on the staff here. they're rabid. what's up? >> caller: what's the long-term outcome on slw? >> silver wheaton. poor man's gold? i have enough problem owning rich man's gold. i don't like silver wheaton. many people said why don't you like it, and the answer is it keeps going down and i don't think it's worth money. can i go to don in california. >> caller: mr. cramer, happy holidays from myself, my wife patrice and our cat crumbles. we watch your show every day. [ barking ] >> caller: my question is regarding sqm. it used to be the lithium play. the stock tanked since january

of this year. last quarter results were not so good with the loss of revenue and shrinking margins. forbes says the stock is oversold. i wanted to get your opinion. >> i think you're right. it's a decent company but i don't like that sector right now. if i had to buy that sector, i would actually buy deere which is undervalued now. i have been saying deere has been overvalued but the last quarter seemed good to me but they made projections so conservative no one wants to own the stock. know thyself. hard to know who to trust except for yourself. listen. if you have conviction, put on the blinders and do some buy, buy, buy. stay with cramer. >> announcer: coming up, go go gadget? the all out assault on apple kept the stock flat for most of the year. is the one-time titan of the touchscreen finally about ti break out as the extreme

"mad money" thanks cramerica for being with us for over 2,000 episodes.

you knew the move in apple would happen just when no one was paying attention, didn't you? isn't that total lack of attention why the stock would go up nine points in one session? no fanfare, no scrutiny, under the radar. remember when apple was on everybody's lips? all you heard was how the company lost its way and wasn't using cash creatively.

we hung one as carl icahn played with tim cook. it went from a failed product store to a failed financial engineering store in record time. cook let down the apple enthusiasts and the financial engineers. it got so bad out there, so bad for apple that when it reported better than expected quarters the analysts were negative. who lost china, they asked? why isn't apple buying back stock? why doesn't it do a carl icahn once? the stock now isn't because of financial engineering but because of real engineering. it is innovating, creating new products. they are more software oriented than hardware oriented. people love them. the stock is rallying the way it used to when the reviews came out about the operating system. they were not only laudatory but they were outright glowing. it leaped over the thought to be invincible samsung. the new tablet is best at anything imagined a year ago.

we are beginning to hear from the companies who make corrugated boxes and who ship holiday gifts and retailers who sell hard goods that it's beginning to look like an apple christmas. can it be as good as two years ago? i don't know. still quite a ways from here. the fact that the stock went this high without raising price target nonsense good news. the fact that it is not done on upgrades and price target nonsense and table pounding tells me the run has staying power. i know that apple isn't giving me a credible social alternative to go with mobile. it didn't buy twitter, netflix or pandora because it thought it could beat it. not yet. i wish it could give me something omg, something i didn't even dream about but in six months i could say, i can't live without it. that doesn't mean apple is sitting still. it's a giant step toward apple creating something to react to motion like the best part of xbox. we don't know how they can win the battle for the living room

without the cable companies, but maybe they can make the cable box less of a hardship and your clicker less of a relic. it offers a decent dividend that can go higher and it's got the biggest buyback on earth. apple may be one of the best places to be going into the home stretch. a gaining momentum story with with a low price to earnings multiple, and it's all done without analyst support. who knows what will happen when the wall street promotion machine inevitably jumps on the bandwagon in the last days of 2013? john in north carolina. john. >> caller: boo-yah, jim. what's going on? >> i don't know. how about you? >> caller: i have had better days. i put a lot of faith into nuance communications. >> yeah. that's a battleground stock. icahn's in it. people keep thinking apple will buy it. they're not. herb greenberg had good things to say on it on "street signs."

i don't trust nuance. i don't want to be there. it will bounce tomorrow. sell it. just when you thought everybody had forgotten about apple, sneaking up on you, inch by inch. it's looking to be an apple christmas. without any analyst support, no price tag boost, none of that nonsense, just wait until they get on board. there is no stopping apple now. stay with cramer.

[ male announcer ] fedex one rate. simple, flat rate shipping with the reliability of fedex. with the recent plunge in the price of oil here in the united states, a $17 decline in west texas intermediate crude, it's worth asking when will the

pain ever end. when will oil bottom? carly garner is author of traders first book on commodities and my colleague at realmoney.com. garner believes that the pain is not yet over. she thinks it could stop in a couple of weeks. until we get to early december, she sees the price of oil going lower. first let's look at the weekly chart of the west texas intermediate crude. we care about not about the price action. i put it there. but the lines at the bottom that represent the commodities futures weekly commitments of traders report known as the c.o.t. report. this commitment of traders report is a fabulous resource. three different groups of futures traders. the large speculators, big institutional investors, the one we really care about. small speculators, little fish, and commercial speculators who own the futures for the purpose of hedging. in other words, they will be shorting the hedge because they own the oil. shorting oil futures because they own the oil.

when you see large speculators getting too bullish in any commodity, that should set off warning bells, particularly in a situation like you have now where you have a lot of people betting on a commodity like oil. that's too many bulls. they spoil the pot. if everyone and their mother is already long oil, nobody is left to buy which means your upside is exhausted and you are at risk of losing money at the hands of a mass liquidation, which hasn't happened where the bulls turn bearish and dump their position because they can't take the pain. with oil garners actually surprised at how tenaciously the bulls are hanging in there. near the peak, large speculators were net long about 360,000 futures contracts, which is close to a record high. according to the latest report after the $17 decline in the price of crude, the big boys are

still net long, 313,000 contracts. it doesn't make sense. garner is pointing out we are in a position where tons of investors are betting on oil, not against it. there are still plenty of bulls and they could stampede toward the exits if things get painful. the mass liquidation that could rapidly knock down the price of crude is still very much on the table despite the decline. check the this out. this is a more detailed weekly chart of west texas crude. one of the things happening here is that garner believes we could see a major seasonal sell-off in the next couple weeks. look at the behavior of oil prices in the last 25 years. in the wake of a negative november you tend to get a seasonal low in early december. in a couple of weeks garner thinks oil will have a seasonal floor, but until then she thinks oil will keep getting pounded. she sees wti dipping to floor support near 90. possibly could drop as low as $86 before the decline ends. i don't know anybody thinking that negatively. she says you should be a buyer.

look at the monthly chart of west texas oil. the recent gradual measured decline in crude has been pretty bizarre. normally when oil goes down we get more pain, more panic. until we get a vicious panic moves lower, garner won't be convinced it is finished. consider the williams oscillator as a bottom, developed by larry williams. that works well. right now west texas crude futures are down near 35 on this indicator. that's low. but amazingly, after the selloff, it's still not technically oversold. that won't happen until the reading drops below 20. it's still got some ways to go. before oil can rally in the united states, garner says we have to see real pain. we haven't had it yet. seems to occur when prices pull back to around $90 or target price $86.

garner sees it happening in the next couple of weeks, so be ready to turn bullish on oil as soon as the price gets low enough that people start to panic. i didn't think it could go that low. this is at odds with my world view. enough about black gold. let's talk real gold. this has been a horrible year for precious metals. it seems nearly everyone has given up on the shiny stuff. garner thinks this could be a smart time to buy it. having too many bulls can create the conditions for a sell off like we're seeing in oil, and too many bears can make it easier for a commodity to rally. garner likes gold here. the fact that it is hated only makes her like it more. look at the weekly chart of gold showing the commitments of traders from the cftc. we are talking the cotton report. according to the latest report large gold speculators are holding a net long position of just 40,000.

when i saw it i said, man, this has to be a bottom. that's minuscule. garner says the well capitalized traders are moving on to other asset classes, turning their back on gold creating the opportunity. check out the more detailed weekly chart of gold. when you look at the stochastic oscillator and the williams percentage r oscillator we use for oil you can see by any measure gold is oversold. that's what we didn't see with oil. the williams percentage oscillator is at 12, the lowest reading since the collapse in gold on june 28. if you remember after gold plummeted in june it bounced back from 1,180 on a ounce to 1,430 in august. garner thinks we could see a similar move now. the fact that the chart is making double bottom only makes her more confident. one bottom, two bottom. wow. even if we haven't reached lows for gold, garner can see the precious metal rebounding before

it runs spo resistance. she thinks gold will break through and trade to 1,425, which is where the most recent wave of selling began. if she's right you want the gold, gld and call options on rangold, the stock we talked about last night. it has tons of prospects coming to fruition. here's the bottom line. too many bulls should make you worry. according to carly garner's reading of the charts that's the situation in oil. she thinks crude could be hammered a couple of weeks before it turns around. too many bears and you just might have a terrific buying opportunity, which is what garner sees with gold. holy smokes. two very contrary, very bold calls. stay with cramer. >> announcer: coming up, it's electric. it's one of the ticker's top performers today. what's driving palo alto networks double digit move and can the network security play help connect you with ones and zeroes? cramer has the exclusive fresh off earnings.
