‘Mad Money’ Recap: Cash for Caulkers

Posted November 18th 2009

NEW YORK (TheStreet) — “Sometimes investors need to take a look around at the big picture,” Jim Cramer told the viewers of his “Mad Money” TV show Wednesday. He said while the markets were essentially flat today, he found the next big investment idea on the front page of the New York Times. Cramer said the article highlighted a stimulus plan proposed by former President Bill Clinton for home weatherization incentives, aptly named “Cash For Caulkers.” Cramer said the plan, if passed, could be a huge windfall, if you know which companies will be the beneficiaries.
