"This group is vulnerable. Is that contrary to my housing call? No, not at all. Remember, I am about house price stabilization. These stocks are about house price appreciation. We aren't going to get that any time soon." - Jim Cramer

Did Black & Decker (BDK), Masco (MAS) and Fortune Brands (FO) overshoot where they should go?

  • BDK
    Black Decker Cp
  • $61.00
  • -0.11%
  • $60.84

So, how does Black & Decker (BDK) fit into a "less bad" prism? I think that at $40 you had to be betting that things were getting darned good. (In fact, as with Home Depot, Best Buy's "upside" was largely derived from expense control.) At $29, Black & Decker is all about "less bad." And in the low $20s, where it was, you had a "getting worse" scenario.

  • BBY
    Best Buy Co Inc
  • $43.30
  • +0.81%
  • $42.82

Are people overestimating the discretionary income that people have after a Best Buy (BBY) disappointment? Is Best Buy's appliance figure such a bummer that everything has to come down? I don't think things are that drastic, but they aren't so hot. Best Buy looked terrible vs. last year.

  • HD
    Home Depot Inc
  • $27.18
  • +0.26%
  • $26.98

Once again, though, I retreat to the comments by Home Depot (HD) CEO Frank Blake last week about how Home Depot is simply less bad.

People owning HD also tend to own: CCLXCVSGOOGGSJNJLLY

  • WHR
    Whirlpool Cp
  • $69.66
  • -1.50%

I don't want to short Whirlpool (WHR), because everyone else is.

People owning WHR also tend to own: AUYBPCSEKEYLMTLUNAPEG

A. If you are standing in line on Black
Friday watch out for pickpockets
disguised as shoppers.Also CNN Money has
a bias against people running their own
investment portfolio.They think you
should be only in mutual or index
funds.If you need a good laugh pick up a
copy of Money Magazine for a lesson in
Economic Propaganda.
