From Cramer 5-9-07.
"They can't get enough stock in. No matter what. They can't seem to find the sellers. Where are these shortages?"
Why does all this matter? Quite simple: Today's a Fed meeting. If the Fed meeting is bullish, these stocks, every one of them, should really take off. And if it is viewed as bearish, even momentarily, you just got your shopping list.

-
FWLT
Foster Wheeler Ag - $32.00
- -1.99%
- $32.16
Obviously, today it's Foster Wheeler. My prediction, judging by the way that stock trades, is that the problem will be back tomorrow -- especially because the few research guys who cover it for the most part don't even like it.

-
CROX
Crocs - $5.45
- -1.45%
- $5.53
Then there is Crocs. The shorts couldn't bring the stock in and now the longs are back. As my colleague Frank Curzio said the other day, this one's a play on international growth, which is extraordinary.

-
AMZN
Amazon.com - $129.66
- +0.52%
- $127.51
Amazon feels that way, too. There are way too many people betting against that one, still, but the persistent buyers can't find any "real" stock for sale; it's mostly short-sellers again. That's not sustainable ... for the shorts. And that will allow the stock to blow through and go far further than anyone thinks possible.

-
HAYN
Haynes Internatio - $26.91
- +1.51%
- $26.17
Or how about Haynes (HAYN)? There's a metals stock that's humming and humming and humming. That one's in bad need of a secondary.

-
ATI
Allegheny Tech Ne - $34.01
- +0.50%
- $33.39
We see the buyers coming back, at last, to Allegheny Tech, as if there had ever been something really wrong with it.

-
AAPL
Apple Inc. - $199.92
- -0.29%
- $198.33
Apple's buying is repetitive! I think you will see that stock trade up and up right into the I-phone launch, which, of course, it will sell off on because it will have gone up so much that nothing could equal the hype.

-
WHR
Whirlpool Cp - $69.66
- -1.50%
- $70.38
There haven't been enough Whirlpool shares to go around since that great quarter.

-
MA
Mastercard Inc - $231.16
- +0.47%
- $229.74
There haven't been enough MasterCard shares to go around, either, for that matter. That means I believe those stocks (WHR and MA) are going much higher.
