Cramer provided viewers with an update of the "From Russia With Love" portfolio of his five favorite Russian stocks. Cramer recommended the portfolio on April 7, and since then the stocks are up an average of 13.7%, while the S&P 500 is up less than 1%. But Cramer said even with the portfolio's stellar performance, changes still need to be made.

He also blew it thinking that Russia’s commodity wealth would trickle all the way through to media. It did boost food and beverages through the consumer, helping Wimm-Bill-Dann and Central European Distribution. And it trickled down to infrastructure, thus the strength of Mechel, the steel maker.
