Number of Hedge Fund Holders: 75

Waste Management, Inc. (NYSE:WM) is one of the stocks Jim Cramer was asked about. A caller sought advice on whether they should add to their position in WM after the company’s latest earnings report. In response, Cramer said:

“I think you should. Now, the stock was up three today. Seemed, people seemed to realize, wait a second, this thing’s gotten way out of line. It was down and down and down. So what I want you to do is I don’t want you to buy… all at once, okay? Because it could, it was up three today. It could go back down a little. If you want to buy 15, 20, 20 shares, let’s buy five, okay? Maybe 25, buy five, and then stagger it. Don’t buy it all at once because this is a stock that tends to be very, very volatile. So that’s my advice to you.”
