>> you almost said will hasselhoff. >> break it out. >> thanks for watching. see you back here tomorrow at 5:00 for more past. "mad money" tomorrow at 5:00. "mad money" well jim cramer starts right now. >> 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. i promise to help you find it. mad money starts now. >> hey, i'm cramer. welcome to mad money. i'm trying to make you a little emergency. my job is not just to entertain. tweet me @jimcramer. it's getting hot in here, let's take off all our stocks. maybe that's not what nellie

mea meant. investors run for the exits. >> 181 points. speed plunging 9.4%. >> the house of pain. >> remember how this market works. it has not one but two masters. the first is oil. if oil rallies, the stock market almost always goes higher. that's been the pattern. been the pattern since the bottom on february 10th, which is easy, because it's my birthday. the federal reserve. it's one mean task master. >> bull's want this these two separate. you know who always wins in the bear is almost always the --

>> first, let's set the stage. yesterday was one of those bizarre up days where nothing happened. nothing significant from any government. it was a terrific sign that in the absence of news, maybe the market wanted to go higher. however, the sign was a false one. as we found out this morning at 8:30 a.m., when the bulls got some unwelcomed news. an astonishing pickup of inflation led by higher rents, medical care and an increase in energy prices. these all amounted to a .4% increase in the cp a. that's the hottest reading since february 13. it's a full 10th of a% more than we were expecting. the inability of regular people to come up with a down payment on a new home. we got housing starts today and they were at that $1.1 million level they were stuck at for

ages. that's not enough to drive down the price of homes. more and more families are renting. because of a shortage of apartments, paying a high price for it. medical side of the equation, this country has been trying to get health care costs under control since the beginning of medicare in 1965. the worrisome one is the increase in the increase of gasoline. talk about a market being at cross purposes. the two masters, oil and the fed. the positive news, the oil patch relentlessly hire prices has stirred the fed heads from their slumber and their chatter about a couple rate hikes has begun aknew. it's deafening again. i can't stand it when they do that. when oil went into free fall, it plummeted so far, crude's long climb back to $48, really didn't even bother to show up.

for a while, oil could rally. the single underlying growing strength. we like that. until today that is. suddenly the increased price at the pump has moved the needle to the point where the cpi can't be ignored by the fed any longer. higher oil now seems to be some sort of tipping point in the discussion about whether the fed has to raise rates next month in order to stem inflation. i have to tell you this whole argument over inflation is cluele clueless. >> first the great hope for housing is that rates are so low, that builders will put up more homes. maybe lenders will loosen the reigns allowing first time home buyers to enter the market. if the fed tightens, we'll have more people renting. pretty logical. cost of rent would go higher. a lot of good that would do.

we can tighten all we want. won't do a thing to fix the government's subsidized mix. third and most reviewing. higher rates will be disastrous for the oil producers trying their best to pump out what they can in order to meet the demands not in the marketplace but of their bankers. you get higher rates than the marginal producers that can bring out oil at these prices. that's going to end up accelerating energy inflation as more oil goes offline, not crimping it. higher rates won't stop this kind of inflation. if anything, totally logical. a rate hike would actually make inflation worse. you know what's the true oddity of this debate? the most ironic part of the intersection? the hardest hit portion of this market today was the portion that the consumer interacts with, retail. the same as last week. you know the s&p 500 isn't just dominated by retail and apparel stocks?

they're the only ones on it. i checked today. the only ones. what makes this ironic? the chief reason my stocks are on the new low list, they can't make anywhere near what we thought they could from the estimates. amazon is crushing the retailers. somehow this positive part of the story is not reflected in aggregate numbers. sadly for the bulls, we're in the exact opposite mode we were yesterday. talk of inflation has led to declines in the packaged good stocks. that's because their beneficiaries have lower inflation and they have bountiful dividend yields. if the fed tightens, those yields becomeless. these companies won't make as much money as we thought they would. i could tick down all of the stocks that were hurt today by the phenomena. however, i think it would be simpler to focus on the epitome.

the epitome is clorox. boy, i'll tell you i wish i had a history of clorox, this is a company with a long history of doing what's right for shareholders. you have to be kidding me. not bad. this is a history of clorox. this team is insanely focused on the short and long term. clorox, which we remember from that label while those of us who are this old, that's when i first started shopping. clorox just reported sharply better than expected earnings, just last night it boosted its dividend from 77 cents to 80 cents. for one, the stock now sells at 25 times earnings. even if the company only has a 6% growth rate. if you check the history of clorox at which i happen to have, i don't think you'd ever see a value that high.

can you imagine? >> despite the dividend boost, clorox only yields 2.4%. if you check the history of clorox, you may not see that low yield. a third of inflation is really roaring back than the raw goods that make up the products. the stuff inside, the plastic, moving it to the stores, they will go up in price. and that am squeeze the margins. where's that skull and bones, don't want people to drink this. clorox may go from the stock to own to the stock you hate, at a high inflation rate world. hence the 2.57 scent loss today, this kind of thinking probably seems granular to you. meaning, we're breaking it down to levels that almost seem silly. one slightly over heated inflation outlook does not change the outlook. the bulls have been lulled into thinking that one at most was

all we should worry about. let me put down the history of clorox, it's quite heavy. throw in the fact that home depot reported an unbelievable number this morning. don't buy, don't buy. that kabashed the stock. is home depot really slowing? no. does that matter? have i taught you nothing? the market makes up its mind on a dime and then changes it on a dime. give the stock a few day's time and it will start back to where it started. the market's two masters have now collided. oil's gotten too high, at least for some. and it's reintroducing a new narrative. one where the fed might be back in play with multiple rate hikes this year. if that's the case, there's more

down side ahead. even as i think you can make a convincing argument, that inflation can't be curved by higher rates. the bulls have to prejean et yellin is flexible enough to see it that way. michael in north carolina, michael. >> thanks for taking my call. >> i wanted to get your opinion and thoughts on american airlines, is the company undervalued? we've seen a really great integration. and the stock has taken a beating the last few months. we've seen some good profitability over the year, what is your take. >> i don't think you can make the estimates, i saw yesterday that delta cut capacity. that's good news for american, that's why the stock was up in a down day. i believe at 32 there's limited down side. i can't think of a case, why should we go out necessarily, until we see better numbers than the last time. which were sub optimal. >> douglas in california, doulgs

of douglas! >> thank you for taking my call. >> i picked up some shares of laird research right after they announced a deal with jla. in the last four weeks, it's been slowly but steadily trading down. what do they know that i don't know? >> they know the federal government seems to be against deals. they fear that these two companies getting together will hurt some of their customers, so they're taking their darn time. i think the deal goes through, but you have to understand, we are now in a world of hurt after that office depot/staples deal fell through. that's what they're worried about. that stock's a good stock. listen up, oil and the fed, it's gotting hot in here. take off some of the layers, get comfortable with the fact that these two market moving masters are in charge of the tape for the time being. the dow's been a real bow wow! but there's only one industry

what might work in this sea saw of a market. we've been getting hit with roving bear markets in a host of sectors. retail, technology. biotech and the financials have gotten hit. there's one industrial that's

quietly managed to defy any weakness. even managing to rally on the days when the market is down hard. i'm talks about the niche that is the pet care group. tonight we're going off the charts. being the technical starter in the three-man team in the trifecta newsletter. first, let me say that sometimes the best ideas are staring you in your face. anyone who owns a cat or dog knows that americans will spend fortunes to keep their pets healthy. they're often viewed as family members or better than family members. they don't ask for money. cats are experts at withholding affection. still, it makes sense that even if the economy seems wobbly, this pet care group would continue to ignore.

blue buffalo pet supplies which we use, vet centers of america, fresh pet. and idex, let's start by checking out the daily chart of pet med express. they make it so easy, this group, don't they? pets. >> america's largest pet centric pharmacy, kind of like a duane reade for pets. it broke out to strong volume a week ago. since then the stock has pulled back a bit and is now trading sideways. or consolidating as they say in the technical world. what's important is that the volume has been lowered during the move sideways. versus the break. see when it spiked, the big volume, when it comes to technical analysis, volume is like a lie detector. it tells you who is telling the truth, the recent rally is the

real deal, see the spike? after spending some time consolidating, the stock moved sharply higher. which is one of the reasons they bought it for the newsletter. it has good financials. strong fundamentals many it has momentum. it doesn't get better than all of these. it's got financials, it's got the chart, it's got the right cashflow, it's got the best business. what's not to like. here's one. how about the daily chart of blue buffalo, which we buy, because it has the american flag on the side. the fancy pet food maker, the stuff costs a lot of money. lately blue buffalo seems to have found in its footing and the stock is rocketing higher. after a big move up in march, blue buffalo continues to climb a high volume. the moving average a tool that technicians use to confirm or detect changes in the stock's

trajectory just flashed a powerful signal where the black line crosses over the red one. there we go. see that, after a month of consolidation in april. at the same time, this is key, we know it, some of our staff members really live by it. the oscillator, which manages buying and selling pressure, has been incredibly strong for months. it never quits. that suggests money buying, every time blue buffalo comes down. we see this $26 stock and beyond. last week, blue buffalo announced a gigantic 25 million shares, driven by some major shareholders that want to cash in. this deal could give you a perfect entry point. he recommends waiting for the secondary to hit, and pulling the trigger. then there's vet centers of america. or vca. my favorite symbol of all. woof, woof. the klain of animal hospitals

that's been on fire lately. it's a thing of beauty, vca has been rallying in a straight line since the lows in february. looking pretty impressive. people keep adding their positions as this thing goes higher. an important momentum indicator seems to be embedded. something that can persist for a long time. vca has been perfect. that's the green line, a little more than a dollar below where the stock is currently trading. given the action, it's quite possible you may not get a pull back. that's how strong vca is. what about fresh pet, the maker of high end pet food that needs to stay cold and stinks up your fridge. middle of the night, you get hungry. fresh pet, most of the time has been the proverbial doghouse.

since it came public in 2014. this long time loser is looking much improved, the stock has bounced hard off its all time lows in february. pretty amazing, right? actually held, and it's been continuing to climb ever since. now, that oscillator is positive, although not as good. buying trends have been solid. and the chart has improved dramatically. this baby is many points away from its all time high. it may be worth speculating down here. 50 cents or so from here. i haven't liked the stock, the chart does look good. then there's one i really like. it's called idxx labs. we've had the ceo on the show back in october. if you watch that interview, you made a pretty penny. they've been unstoppable of late. with daily sharks showing impressive higher lows and higher highs since the bottom of

february. look at this thing. don't short that, that's fabulous. the money oscillator seems to be super strong. money is pouring into idex labs. lang says it's tremendous. they've been a buy into every single pull back. you know i'm a fan of the fundamentals. this kind of selloff, that's when you buy idex. i love that. now, let's not forget, the huge animal health company, we had them on last week, this is an interesting chart, not as positive as the others. they exploded higher in march and april. lang says his pull back is a consolidation as the stock tries to digest all of these gains. frankly, this has been one of the best performing pharmaceutical talks out there of late. it's no wouldn'ter the boys want to buy it. we noted that bill ahman reduced his stake last week.

i wouldn't be too much into it. the fund hasn't had a good year, in part because of that gigantic long position. gallant seems to be moving up a bit, and herbal life, which has been moving up a little bit. at this point i wouldn't be surprised if he's selling his winners to find his losers. which in my view is a mistake. it means other hedge funds will stop shooting. just to try to bring agoman down. as someone who was used to running. i can tell you that money managers are like sharks. they smell your blood in the water, they can attack. here's the bottom line now. in a market where it's hard to find much to hang your hat on, the pet stocks have been amazingly consistent winners, you can pick among your favorites. petmed, blue buffalo, and even more of the fresh pet, they're working. pet food, small area, big

prophets. much more mad money ahead. amazon is pushing its way into the $80 billion private food business. if you want to take advantage of the structure, there's a different stock that should be in your cart. it's a big discount today. i'm taking a closer look. another breakup that's been a boone nor investors. it's two stocks that had a healthy start. i don't think they're done going higher. home depot and tjmaxx reported earnings today. that drop deserved? don't make a move before hearing my take.

specifically, amazon

announced it's going to launch new lineups of private label food and products, just as your own supermarket, cheaper store brand products, amazon will do the same. the stock is only up 15%. however, there was one other company mentions in the wall street journal piece that broke the story. popped 2% yesterday because they were talked about as a possible partner with amazon. tree house gave back all those gains today and then some. i think this is an intriguing story, i have for some time. you're going to get a compelling entry point. let me explain. to do that, we need to begin at the beginning. which is the rise of the private label food business. consumers have been a lot more frugal. all kinds of retailers have embraced selling their own cheaper inhouse brands.

amazon had already been moving into the food business, now we learned that they're rolling out their own private label brands in the coming weeks. this could be a nice new high margin retail business for amazon. they instantly make prime service more valuable. it's a lot more that you get for that $99. company likes to monitor the best selling products on their platform. and then create its own knockoff versions at lower price points. this is their first attempt to move into the private food label business. trio food's for proprietary brands, mainly they specialize in making private label products for supermarkets all over the country. with soups, puddings, sources, fruit spreads, salad dressings,

especially healthy snacks like trail mix and dried fruit. i sent my staff out, i said get my tree house, they came back with soup, hormel chilly, and then they came up with cramer original. i said, listen, guys, that's not going to cut it. they said, you know special k? well, we have special c. and it turns out that amazon's been consulting with tree house in the runup to their own private label food launch, which might mean these guys have acquired a major new customer. just as amazon's the king of online retail. tree house is the king of private label food. i say king me. tree house is a company that was spun off more than 10 years ago. most recently last november we learned that tree house was buying tree house's label.

tree house became the largest private maker in food in the industry. they doubled in 20 different categories, including pasta, bakery goods and cereal. spins? fruit spins? is this after a really big night out? i prefer special k. or special c when the staff finds where i threw it. i think this purchase was a total steal. con agora bought this business. tree house paid half that, because con agra couldn't make them work. i think they make a lot more sense at tree house, which is already a private label specialist. even before this con agra transaction, tree house was a

big player in the food industry. it's earnings haven't been annihilated by the super freakin' strong dollar. put it all together, you can understand why are the stock is up more than 16% year to date. now, tree house has been cautious about the integration of conagra's private label business. shortly after the deal closed they delivered strong earnings and small sales. market took the view in stride, stock rallied on the news, the investors assuming management was trying to low ball them. simple growing pains could only be incredibly lucrative new business. when tree house reported again a few weeks ago. delivering a seven cent earnings basis. they raised their full earnings guidance.

the next quarter's earnings could be challenged because of the costs associated with the con agra deal. in response the stocks shot up 6% the next day. they continued to climb through tonight. amazon's related games. speaking of the new private label food business that we don't actually know that they'll subcontract this out to tree house, we only know that amazon consulted with them. my best guess would be tree house gets a piece of this business, they're the number one maker of knockoff store brand food in america. what about the competition. maybe the best comparison here might be pinnacle foods. pinnacle doesn't have the scale or the breadth of tree house, nor do they have the kind of healthy food exposure with tree house. with amazon getting into the private label game, i think they would be fools not to go with

tree house. which has the experience the infrastructure and expertise to help amazon get running. i've locked the stock for so long and it's coming down, tree house is not exactly cheap. more expensive than mogalise which branded smucker's at 20 time. kellogg's makes the real deal. well, kellogg's makes the knockoff. if you're -- never mind. tree house does have much faster growth in these countries. tree house underpromises and over delivers. anyone who's batched this show for a long time. here's the bottom line, private label food is booming, you know it's good when amazon decided they want a piece of it, when it comes to the zre, tree house is the king of knockoffs. the news that amazon plans to sell private brand food of their

own could be the logical thing. if they don't get amazon's business, i think the stock is a buy. especially after its brutal pull back today as part of a selloff in all things consumer. even if tree house has little or nothing to do with the reasoning behind its own decline. fred in florida, fred! >> caller: greetings tenured professor cramer. >> i love that. you can stick around. >> caller: thanks for all you and your staff do. with the decrease of the dollar, may i have your short and long term opinion on mondelise. >> i was surprised 2 wasn't as good as it was. i think the stock comes down as part of the selloff of all the branded stocks. if you get back to below 43, where it was when it reported, i think -- there you go. time to make a little money off the consumer's desire to save. i think amazon's moved to the

private label business. gives a strong case of owning tree house. i like it after today's market wide selloff. much more mad money ahead. i'm taking a look at two stocks to make a diagnosis for the rest of 2016. >> home depot and tjmaxx reported stellar earnings. are they into the retail fray or is it best to ignore the down ward flaks. and a special lightning round. you pay your car insurance

i always like to check up on companies that seem to have followed my advice on something big. when i wrote get rich carefully, which was published at the end of 2013. i devoted an entire chapter to companies that split themselves up. baxter was my number one candidate for a company that should break itself up. i've been arguing for ages that the company's slow and steady medical device didn't belong

under the same roof as its fast growing biopharma division. i thought they would get a better rating if they published these two. if you ever want to prove that breaking up is easy to do and incredibly lucrative. just literally days after they began trading july 1st of last year it was approached by shire. taken over to a 36% premium. the deal lang wished for months. this past january, we learned that the merger had been approved by both companies. receiving $32 billion in cash and stocks. the spin-off has made you a killing. on the first day after the breakup, they're worth about

70.08. today a little over 10 months later, baxter is trading at 44.40 cents. in anticipation of the shire deal closing. you add them up and what do you get? 87.30. you held on to both stocks, you're out now from the day baxter came up. i said baxter could be worth $87 a share. we know what's happened in the biopharma business. that steady eddie medical supply company, how is that doing now that it's standing on its own? don't forget that baxter held on to a 19.5% stake after the spin-off. they're getting a nice takeover paying for the old drug business. even without the boost, baxter international seems to be doing well quite well on its own. the breakup came just a couple months after the hideous selloff

in september. baxter appears to have found its footing. the stock of this boring old baxter has taken off it's up 16.5% year to date. we have to ask ourselves why has baxter been so good. some of it is company specific. i'm going to get that in a moment. a lot of it has to do with mechanics. they want their funds to come close to reflecting the same mix of sectors you get in the s&p 500. that way, if there's a big group you don't see coming, you won't underperforming. what that means is, right now, there are tons of money managers who need to own some health care stock. there's not that much to chose from. which brings me back to baxter international.

here's a nice consistent profitability set up by the affordable care act. as long as people keep going to the hospital, baxter keeps making money. people will always get sick. baxter's become the kind of stock that money managers can't get enough of it. baxter is benefiting from money. they focused on their drug business. that meant they could really only try to not lose market share. it was hurting them, could you see it in the numbers. in the last quarter sales in baxter's medical products were flat on a constant currency basis. now that they no longer need to worry about running a drug business. baxter can innovate.

they held their service last week. they could translate into $1 billion of incremental revenue. they launched 17 new products. the numbers have already gotten better. when baxter last suspended, the dollar weakening. baxter's margins are improving and improving dramatically. thanks in part to all these new products. they no longer have to spend so much money. on top of that, management's gotten aggressive about cost cuts. that's how they're operating margins year over year to 10.5%. they can grow this to the 14 to 15% range. that would represent a truly

gigantic increase of money. another benefit from the breakup, remember in a 19.5 stake baxter kept? the company's been gradually liquidating that position. baxter's been using that money to pay down debt and buy back stock. this improved capital position is not expected to be a one time thing. they will improve cashflow going-forward? they no longer have that expensive drug business. that means more money. put it all together, this breakup is going much better. they're not the only part of the story -- the remaining baxter international has gotten their act together. i think that stock in this selloff right now, could have a lot more room to run. mad money back after the break.

look, i know you never say forget about today. it means nothing. every day means something. i'm going to ask your indulgence. and say that some of the retailers that were down today shouldn't have been. their precisely what is working at this point both in the economic and internet spin cycles. i'm talking about home depot.

and tjx. they both awarded earnings this morning. before the actual bell is rung the stocks of both companies could not with stand the gravitational pull. some information they said on their conference call said they felt prey to profit taking. why do i say profit taking? >> yesterday in the nonevent rally that was driven up sharply by higher oil. both stocks -- that stole whatever thunder they could muster. let me say first, if you read through the home depot calls, as opposed to just taking your cue from your stock price. things are pretty darn strong. i like to quote from the home depot conference call, unlike most of the jokers who were dumping the stock. i'm willing to let the facts get

in the way of a depressing stocks story. as summed up succinctly by kyle tamay. since we built our 2016 sales plan. we continue to see strength in the housing market with home price appreciation, housings turnover. he goes on to say, sales in the first quarter exceeded our expectations, not just because of favorable weather but because of higher demand from our core categories, end quote. that in the end, not the negative stock action is what matters. they're telling you things are strong. they'll stay that way as long as household appreciation are the two main variables to measure growth rates. more people will take apartments or buy houses. they will go to home depot as they always have. if homes are going to appreciate in value, homeowners will purchase merchandise to make it

better. in other words, it's all good at the despot. how about tjx? we see the same thing, except much better. home goods, their amazing store for home goods. make it pretty easy there. reported numbers that were twice as good as anyone -- up 9% instead of the gain we were looking for. unlike home depot which tends to open a few stores. tjx is spinning over the globe. the sourcing which relies in part on vendors that can't move their merchandise which is better. perhaps most important, unlike last week's department store retailers, these two are far less susceptible to the ghengis cannes of retail, amazon.

home depot's goods, whether they be hardware, appliances or plants, they don't get amazon. these do not suffer from the wrath of khan. so let them come in, there's no hurry, lots of sellers out there. not all stocks pull back because something's wrong at the company. in fact, at this market, stocks can sea saw back and forth with nothing happening at the company. the next time the sea saw falls, i recommend climbing on to tjx and home depot, not stumbling away from them. stick with kramer. you wouldn't hire an organist without hearing them first. charge! so why would you invest without checking brokercheck? check your broker with brokercheck.

home depot and tjx, really good quarters. just for you, i'm jim cramer, i will see you tomorrow.
