Cramer was once again pessimistic about Black & Decker, noting how the stock has dropped off in the wake of its disappointing earnings report.

Cramer pointed to Wal-Mart as the type of company that will perform well with sinking fuel costs and the holiday season on the horizon. Wal-Mart’s stock has performed well this month, despite fluctuating during the summer.
The TJX Companies, Inc. (NYSE:TJX): Jim Cramer ranked this stock a Buy. Cramer previously ranked this stock a Buy on August 28, 2013. The stock’s 52-week high is $54.84, and its 52-week low is $40.08. Cramer was optimistic about TJX, the retail store that is trading near all-time highs this week.
