He also likes fertilizer producer Potash (POT)

“Potash has been a tremendous performer,”  he said.  “The fertilizer business, on a global basis, is in outstanding shape.  I think the stock sees at least 50 percent upside from here.”

CNBC Bonus Bucks Trivia: On Friday, Cramer warned that “safety stocks aren’t safe” now. But he did say one stock was “about to rip.” Which?

On Friday, Cramer warned that “safety stocks aren’t safe” now. But he did say one stock was “about to rip.” Which?

Recently IPO’d Intrepid Potash (IPI) hit a 52-week high today, and “I want to buy it still,” Cramer said. “I think IPI’s about to rip.”

IPI doesn’t make the cut for the models I use, so I have little to add other than “recently IPO’d” stocks should have a fairly easy time setting 52-week highs.

CNBC Bonus Bucks Trivia: On May 19, Jim Cramer called which agriculture stock a “great buy”?

On May 19, Jim Cramer called which agriculture stock a “great buy”?

Seems like a case of “all of the above.”

Regular viewers of Mad Money know Cramer’s been bullish on agriculture stocks. Syngenta (SYT) is one of the few among them not yet at its 52-week high. He called SYG a “great buy,” saying, “Anytime you get a discount…I’d pull the trigger.” That goes for Bunge (BG) and Monsanto (MON) too, he said.

Syngenta is another one of those stocks that just doesn’t make it into my models, so there isn’t much I can say about it. Bunge looks good on the basis of earnings momentum and price momentum, but poor on the basis of free cash flow. Monsanto looks good on earnings and price momentum but poor for both free cash flow and return potential.
