Jim Cramer made the following calls on September 6th, 2013. What do you think about his picks?
Whole Foods Market, Inc. (NASDAQ:WFM): Jim Cramer ranked this stock a Buy. Cramer previously ranked this stock a Buy on August 28, 2013. The stock’s 52-week high is $56.83, and its 52-week low is $40.70. Whole Foods has recently announced its plan to open a store in Engelwood, an impoverished suburb on the south side of Chicago. Some question how the company, which has traditionally relied on quality and selection rather than lower prices to outclass in competition, will fare in the new setting.
Phillips-Van Heusen Corp. (NYSE:PVH): Jim Cramer ranked this stock a Buy. Cramer previously ranked this stock a Buy on September 4, 2013. The stock’s 52-week high is $134.98, and its 52-week low is $90.15. The clothing company is expected to announce quarterly earnings sometime today, causing uncertainty about which direction the report could take the stock. The stock itself has held steady over the course of the last two months.
Restoration Hardware Holdings Inc. (NYSE:RH): Jim Cramer ranked this stock a Buy. Cramer previously ranked this stock a Buy on July 25, 2013. The stock’s 52-week high is $77.36, and its 52-week low is $30.32. Restoration Hardware is expected to announce its second quarter earnings after the markets close tomorrow on the 10th. Analysts have a mixed reaction to the stock, with a Hold consensus rating but vastly differing price targets.
Timken Co. (NYSE:TKR): Jim Cramer ranked this stock a Buy. Cramer previously ranked this stock a Buy on August 29, 2013. The stock’s 52-week high is $63.10, and its 52-week low is $36.15. Timken appears to have leveled off after a sharp increase in the stock in the wake of an announcement that the company will split in two. In a move largely hailed by shareholders, the company will split off its steel business, creating plans to keep key executives in each half of the company after the split.
Vale S.A. (NYSE:VALE): Jim Cramer ranked this stock a Buy. Cramer previously ranked this stock a Buy on August 13, 2013. The stock’s 52-week high is $21.88, and its 52-week low is $12.39. J.P. Morgan assigned the stock a $25 price target after meeting with company executives and claiming that cost-cutting measures will continue to be effective in the long term. The company itself is also optimistic about its future, though some concern persists over its projections of iron ore prices.
