barrons3	a $1 drop in natural gas means 24 cents to 28 cents a share to PPG (PPG), a stock which Cramer owns for his charitable trust, Action Alerts PLUS. It also means a 10-cent boost for DuPont (DD), he said, although he's not as big a fan of DuPont.	Love	September 17, 2009

RhinoStocks	The outlook is good for DuPont, which has undergone a massive cost-cutting initiative to bring their earnings back in line during this recession. Muted analyst expectations should increase the chances of a good surprise this quarter.	Love	July 20, 2009
barrons3	In housing, stocks like DuPont (DD), up 18% and Home Depot (HD) show that the housing market is on track for a mid-summer recovery, said Cramer.	Love	April 30, 2009
Stockpickr Staff	"Instead, though, we see profits -- profits like those just reported by Du Pont (DD), which put up a number that simply wasn't that bad. That's the best way to describe it: not bad."

skeeua	GOOD COMPANY. CHEAP. NICE DIVIDEND. AND A PERFECT STOCK TO INCORPORATE IN A COVERED OPTION; ... SELLING OPTIONS AGAINST STOCK YOU OWN. EMPHASIZES "CASH FLOW"! (DIVIDENDS + OPTION INCOME = NICE % RETURNS!)	Love	April 06, 2009
sarah z	“Classic -- a not-so-hot bond auction yesterday freaks people out. A "bash the dollar" comment from the Treasury secretary freaks people out. Next thing you know, it's the end of the great mini bull market. Then, we go home, we come to work the next day, and what do we get? We get a great seven-year Treasury auction and we get a complete clarification of the dollar comments from Tim Geithner and they are meaningless -- no change in policy. We are in a world right now where everyone has one foot in the doorway, and the door keeps slamming on them. You have to understand that we are in a moment where something good is happening. Tech inventories have been worked off, so semis, cell phones and hardware are rallying. Chemical inventories have been worked off, so we see a rally in Du Pont (DD) and Dow (DOW) and International Paper (IP) and the companies that ship them, the rails. We stop hearing the bank nationalization talk and the consumer discretionary panic. Look at Whirlpool (WHR) and Black & Decker (BDK). We get a bottoming out in housing. These are good things. It is very tough to have one foot out the door and do better than the market. Right now, before the end of the quarter, you might need three feet in the door to do well. That's saying something.”	Love	March 26, 2009
sarah z	From a recent Mad Money show:He doesn't trust the dividend and says way too much of its drug business is going generic. He said to sell.	Love	March 17, 2009
barrons3	DuPont (DD) Dave Peltier has made it clear repeatedly in his excellent dividend analysis that this one is totally at risk. Why can't this go the way of Dow, maybe plus some ag that Dow doesn't have? Heavy into housing and auto. Drug business being shredded by patent problems. People expect DuPont to earn $2, I say it would be lucky to earn half of that, but let's just say three-quarters of that, and make it $1.50 with a 7 multiple, as it trades there now: $11, as there will be no dividend support.

sarah z	From a recent Mad Money show:"No, that dividend is not safe. I don't want to touch it. You don't want Dow Chemical (DOW) either."	Love	February 27, 2009
Buzz	Basic materials down now...but this is the place to be on a recovery. Most people don't know a good chunk of the business is tied to Ag. That's ok, they can go buy crox.	Love	February 21, 2009

macourtenay	Outstanding CEO, generous dividend,exchange-specialists pick, respectable balance sheet	Love	January 15, 2009
barrons3	I like the market -- LIKE EVERYONE ELSE -- for the moment, and I like the "it bottomed" thesis. But I don't like the "straight up" thesis, and I particularly don't like the "straight up" thesis when I see a 3M (MMM) go down hard after a shortfall, something that didn't happen after Dow (DOW) and Du Pont (DD).	Love	December 11, 2008
sarah z	From a recent Mad Money show:"I've been looking at this one and salivating. It yields almost 7% and the dividend is safe. That one's a buy."	Love	December 05, 2008

barrons3	If you stop redemptions as a hedge fund, a la Fortress Investment Group (FIG), and you don't go down after really blowing up, a la DuPont (DD), you can craft an argument that the bad news is finally in the stocks and that the automatic selling that we have seen endlessly from the hedge funds is at last behind us.

barrons3	First up was DuPont(DD). It has "a big housing component, but it's a very well-run company," said Cramer.	Love	October 09, 2008
crowne management	Entered short during week of 9/22/08 at 45.39	Love	October 06, 2008
barrons3	Du Pont (DD) has a lot of businesses that are less cyclical than people think and a safe dividend. I would be surprised if it went much below $40, where I would like to buy it.	Love	October 02, 2008
Felix Penzarella	Quility Future Thinker	Love	September 22, 2008
barrons2	The flip side is the chemical business -- giant user of natural gas -- and here, using this methodology, you are safe: Dow (DOW) was at $49 and Du Pont (DD) at $44. Stable with dividends and big declines in raw costs? Bad shorts.	Love	September 11, 2008
barrons2	Investors may be tempted by Dow's depressed valuation and 5% dividend yield, but it's tough to have much confidence in management. DuPont (DD) may be a better bet in chemicals at around $42, or 12 times projected 2008 profits of $3.50 a share. P.J. Juvekar, the chemical analyst at Citigroup, wrote Friday that the Rohm & Haas deal heightens DuPont's appeal because its business mix looks similar to that of Rohm & Haas. DuPont also has an attractive agricultural and seed business. He estimated DuPont is worth $60 on a sum-of-the-parts basis.	Love	July 12, 2008
