Cramer's lightning round: Why I'm still backing TJX Companies

Gene Blevins | Reuters. Jim Cramer zooms through his take on callers' favorite stocks, including a ripe-for-the-picking data play.·CNBC

TJX Companies Inc. (NYSE: TJX) : "TJX, the largest position in my charitable trust, and it's been hurting. Why? Because it's caught up with all these ETFs on retail. Chart's awful. I think the business is good. I am going to say wait until it goes back to $68 and then pull the trigger." HSBC Holdings PLC. (London Stock Exchange: HSBA-GB) : "No. No. No. Too complicated, too difficult, too hard to understand. When we've got the likes of JPMorgan (NYSE: JPM) and [CEO] Jamie Dimon or [Citigroup (NYSE: C) CEO] Michael Corbat at Citi, which my charitable trust owns, that's where we're going." Genworth Financial Inc. (NYSE: GNW) : "We're going to stay away. We're going to stay away because there are balance sheet issues. Me no like balance sheet issues." Quantenna Communications Inc. (NASDAQ: QTNA) : "We looked at these guys. We looked and we looked and we passed. There's too many other guys in that segment. And we've got Broadcom (NASDAQ: AVGO) , which pre-announced a better-than-expected quarter and still went down today until Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) reported a good number. I think it was heresy that the stock was down." Metlife Inc. (NYSE: MET) : "Metlife's incredibly well-run, but it did hit a 52-week high today. I would prefer a little bit of pullback. [I] do like Chubb (NYSE: CB) more than that, but it's a good company." Cognizant Technology Solutions Corp. (NASDAQ: CTSH) : "Look, I think it's a terrific story. The information technology stories that we like? That's a good one, you know we like Accenture (NYSE: ACN) very much, and the one that I tell club members is worth buying is a company called DXC [Technology] (NYSE: DXC) , which was down 81 cents today. I'd pick that one up even more than [Cognizant]." Exact Sciences (NASDAQ: EXAS) : "Everybody knows the same thing, which is the sales are unbelievable for the colorectal product and I think that it's a good company and I think that the product itself is saving a lot of peoples' lives. So I've got two thumbs up for that one." Stericycle Inc. (NASDAQ: SRCL) : "Nope, nope, nope. I went over this one with my old friend Herb Greenberg a long time ago, and it just, to me, does too many acquisitions. Not working. It's not my style. UNH (NYSE: UNH) if you want to be in that segment." Watch the full lightning round here:Disclosure: Cramer's charitable trust owns shares of Citigroup, Apple and DXC Technology. Questions for Cramer?
