Cramer's lightning round: 'It's too nightmarish' to own bank stocks in this environment
It's that time again! "Mad Money" host Jim Cramer rings the lightning round bell, which means he's giving his answers to callers' stock questions at rapid speed.
PacWest Bancorp PACW : "You can't own a bank. I mean, this yields 6.7 percent. I am not worried about the yield, but I can't have you be in that stock. It's too nightmarish. Any bank!"
CyrusOne Inc. CONE : "I like that company. I know it's got a 3 percent yield, but it's got great growth — 3 percent meaning not that high — and I believe in the data center. I don't think it's slowing down, and they came on the show and said that."
United States Steel Corp. X : "I want you to sell U.S. Steel and just keep Nucor NUE . Nucor's got a good dividend policy [and a] very, very good balance sheet. I can't say that about letter X."
Southwest Airlines Co. LUV : "That stock acts badly, I've got to tell you. It's down 22 percent. I really think [CEO] Gary Kelly is too good to tell you to sell that stock down here, but oh, man. Other people like United [Continental Holdings] UAL a lot better."
