About the demise of the Business Leader panels the president put together with so much fanfare. Did he disband them . Who knows . Youve got ceos openly castigating the president for his off the wall remarks and the president calling them infants pure chaos in washington, with some of trumps most important allies unable to hide their contempt for the president s statements which they see as providing aid and comfort to White Supremacists but the dow gained 26 points, the s p inched up, and the nasdaq advanced 0. 19 . Why isnt this market plummeting simple the stock market is not, and has never been a referendum on washington they know nothing sure, some president s are more stock market than others. Regardless, whatever else you may say about this administration, and you may be saying it, trumps as pro stock market as it gets. He believes that the market is a referendum on his president. They cant hurt. Nevertheless, lets not forget that the market did well under president obama, too he just never claimed ownership. But lets step away from politics, because while i do believe the stock market could be lower if Hillary Clinton had won, as democrats tend to be less business friendly than republicans. What matters even more to the direction of the stock market is the growth of sales and profits at the individual companies, actual companies and how those should be valued when you think in terms of sales and earnings, the truth is these Business Councils havent mattered at all. Washington isnt as important as we like to pretend to the stock market what matters is that sales and profits have been excellent this year, particularly for everything but select retailers in the oil and gas industry. On top of that, low Interest Rates and slow inflation have combined to make those sales and profits worth more than most investors expected by this point this year. The fed released minutes today showing fear of inflation is heating up some dont, though i dont think the fed wants to raise rates that takes the september hike off the table either way, its not a major part of the calculus unless youre running a business that has had labor costs jacked up by government mandated minimum wage increases. First, i hate talking politics this is a terrible time. Its outside my wheel house. My views should be of no interest to you. I do like talking stocks i like talking about your portfolio and help you make money. And the chaos in the capital makes washington more relevant to the market than its been in ages even though theres chaos, its republican chaos, so it wont be antibusiness chaos. Remember, the current chaos revolving around some incredibly important civil rights issues that are fundamental to our nation, but they have very little to do with the stock market listen, last wednesday, the cash revolved around income and icbms and the war of words between trump and kim jongun. There is an existential dilemma, and if things went wrong, it could have meant the death of 10 million south koreans. Now were dealing with issues, Trump Defends very fine people at nazi rally. Problematic. Suboptimal has nothing to do with the stock market but its not it just doesnt impact what i said matters the sales, the earnings, and how we value them. Whereas if we get tax reform, something that the president s people are promising by thanksgiving, whatever then when the companies have bigger profits, come on, i mean, lets be candid. Congress has yet to raise the Debt Ceiling Congress wants another shot at repeal and replace more importantly, congress only works three days a week when its in session. Right now theyre all on vacation for the summer. I should run for office. Any way, i like to work hard, though that means not much can get done, even lets say if there were some sort of unanimity, which there is none. So what do we do until it looks like our legislature has its act together, we can forget about washington as long as they stay out of the way of american companies. Right now, American Business is making money hand over fist. You should cash in on it, not to be concerned about this stuff other than in your heart the reason, listen, you need to understand that the Business World is made up of ycles. There are all sorts of cycles. Theres the housing cycle, the Consumer Spend cycle, auto cycle, nonresidential construction cycle, the oil and gas cycle, the aircraft cycle. A lot of cycles. And other than autos and the ois, all of these other cycles are in the sweet spot. Why . Some have to do with demand. Theres more demand for homes than there are homes think about everything that goes into your house. Housing is 10 of the economy. Plus all the legal ramification of buying a home, it punches way above its weight autos are real important, but they arent growing. But theyre peaking at a high level. Aerospace, insane demand, one of the great exports of our country. Some would say its in secular growth mode. We have secular demand in lots of tech. Remember, if something is a cycle, it booms and busts. If its secular, its a sustained boom if you think of the growth of cell phones and Artificial Intelligence are secular, as i do, there are a ton of stocks worth buying the disbanding of trumps Manufacturing Council doesnt mean a thig to any of those cycles if the president hadnt spent his political capital, he might have built more manufacturing facilities in the United States rather than cheaper foreign companies. Good for jobs, bad for earnings. But when you see his moral authority draining away in tweets and shouting matches, that means ceos can move their businesses offshore without worrying about the impact of getting hit with an angry tweet. Now, i know that detail has been tough because of whats called price transparency, thats what amazon really stands for its about pricing conspiracy. You cant full a consumer anymore about price. I know there are too many cars being built. Making up for that is a weaker dollar, which means our International Companies are more competitive overseas and of course, almost everyone is a winner from Lower Energy Costs except the oil and gas companies, and they only make up 6 of the s p. Heres the bottom line if you want to evaluate the stock market, you need to hook at businesses as the sum total of the prospects of their sales and earnings, and look at them through the lens of what you pay for those numbers, based on the price of money, Interest Rates, and inflation. Beyond that, we can get all geopolitical we can get mired down by the mad house in washington, but never forget that the four walls s of the spread sheet are far more powerful in this room than the four walls of the white house.

At what point can we safely stop worrying about the stock of pharmaceuticals, the company specializing in dermatology, ophthalmology, thats been in the news for the past couple of years, as the stock plummeted from 262 down to 9 were 14 and change today valeant has had 30 billion in debt, the hedge fund led by bill akman, which sold its share in the company. But i have to wonder if the new ceo is getting it under control. He sold off underperforming assets, focused on research and development, and paid down the companys heavy debt load. To me, a critic of the company, i feel that he has indeed started to turn it down. The company did lower its revenue outlook, which caused the stock to pull back, but what are we supposed to make of the company here lets check in with the ceo and get a better sense of whats happening. Welcome back to mad money. Good to see you, joe good to be here joe, i was critical you were on last, i was concerned because of the big debt load. There were a lot of things that were wrong, and i wanted to know if you were up to the task i have to tell you, performance speaks louder than words youve been doing exactly what you said when you came on the show and congratulations. Thank you, jim. Thank you. Its been, i will say first and foremost, its been a challenging 15 months, but weve made great progress. We brought in a great new team, new cfo, we got them from people that i really felt i had known in my past that were going to be good people to join the team we have some great people already with the company, so that helped, as ell. But weve been dealing with all the issues last year when i was here, you talked about our debt. In the time period since last First Quarter of 2016 to now, we will have reduced our debt as of today or yesterday, we paid back 500 million more towards 4. 8 billion of Debt Reduction in less than a year ahead of what you said. We said we would do it by february of 2018, were well ahead of schedule in the actual quantity, but also the amount of time so were making good process there. The other important question you raised is where are you going to grow we have a pipeline that were proud of we launched a product called relastor, up 33 this year versus last year good news for us we launched a product, salik, a product for psoriasis. Were delighted to have it in the marketplace. It has some of the best efficacy in terms of the eradication of the plaque for psoriasis i was questioning short term, how were you going to pay down that huge amount of debt that was coming due but i know from my friends at s p, youve been able to do that handily. We worked very hard at this it was one of the key priorities for this reduce the debt, but we paid down by selling some assets. We made now 12 different asset divestitu divestitures i have two more that will close the second half of the year, generating another 1. 2 billion of proceeds to help us pay down more debt. These are not things that have hurt the earnings profile, i can tell what weve been able to do, the first thing is what is core to our future . I said dermatology business, core, thats now 56 of our business is in the ophthalmolo y ophthalmology. So weve focused around the core, we invested in that, and now what were doing is paying down the debt with some of these, what i call noncore assets when you reported last week, the stock got hit. The analysts, some cut numbers but what i thought was interesting, the bonds went up, your Interest Rate went down so the equity guys, sometimes they know a lot, but its the fixed income guys that seem to have been making the right calls here we think they do a great job. They follow how our cash what is the cash generation of our business theyve been following that. Importantly, yes, we did reduce revenue slightly but we also did not reduce our earnings before tax depreciation its all about generating the cash you also talked about the idea that perhaps the company had been, previous to you, a leader in price increases. A lot of people felt they were taking advantage of the system you said you would look at the pricing and change that. Where are you there on that issue . Within the first two weeks i joined the company, we started what i would refer to is a Patient Access and Pricing Committee that looked at making sure that patients have access to our products. Weve done that. Thats well under way. We also said that we would limit our pricing to a single digit price increase on any of our products taking a pledge on that we did say thats what we would look at relative to future pricing. So weve taken the steps, we think, to address some of these issues we had a few legacy issues you had some legal issues, and you had bill ackman who seemed to be indecisive about his position, but he has since left do you have any interaction with him . I talk to him occasionally. Hes been helpful to me. Weve made great progress. One of the things that happened last week, we unfortunately got a complete response letter on one of our products awaiting fda action, and kacandidly, it was because one of our sites we had a communication with fda just this morning, and we believe now that the fda is going to upgrade that manufacturing site to a voluntary action indicated, which is an important step for all of our future innovation and all the products that we make at that site. Thats near term. Very near term. I know the drug industry is a bit of a club when it comes to the ceos one of the club was a fine man, ken frazier, was attacked by president trump. It seemed to me unfair i wanted to know your view ken frazier is a phenomenal individual he was like a role model for all of us. Hes a great individual ken had a position on this i think the most important comment i can say on this is that at our company, racism and discrimination, theres no place for that in our company. What were doing is trying to make sure we have Quality Health care outcomes for patients all over the world last question, you have, as always, you are a very transparent person you put out a fantastic deck, and you talked about 2018 and years for growth are you feeling as confident or more confident about the years for growth after all that youve been through since we saw each other . I believe that the new products we have are going to generate the returns for our shareholders that we need to generate we had products that were losing exclusivity there was nothing we could do about that we realized very early, we made it as transparent as possible, but if you think about whats growing in our business, the different businesses you dont have to sell any of them we have zero debt maturities between now and 2020 so that gives you a real chance to invest in the business. And the latest results on the earnings id that we talked about was that baush lam was up 6 those on an organic basis, those businesses were up 8 . Thats really important in terms of Revenue Growth. I could not agree more. Youre a man of your word and then some. I was tough on you you exceed everything that i thought was possible, joe. Thats joe papa, chairman and ceo of vrx, who has done a remarkable job turn Thing Company around mad money is back after the break. So new touch screens. And biometrics. In 574 branches. All done by.

If you didnt know it already, yesterdays action reminded us just how hard it is to invest in retail these days when a retailer miss the numbers, like dicks, it just gets pulverized. Dive witness home depot. Although it did have a nice bounce today so what do you do . You can just buy the stock of the company that everyone says is eating their lunch, amazon. I have proof of that but make you bulk at amazons valuation or you want to find something less well known with more upside. Thats why tonight i want to give you an alternate set of options, a pair of Technology Companies that are crucial partners for small and medium sized retailers all over america. Im talking about etsy and shoppify, thin tech. These two companies allow individuals and merchants, without much scale, to sell their goods online and expand their customer base. While brick and Mortar Retail is a total house of pain. The house of pain anything that helps old school merchants become more dominant on the web is on fire both became public in the spring of 2015. Although theyve had very different trajectories after its spike, etsy was a real dog, until the second half of last year. Lately its made a stunning comeback and the stock is up 32 for 2017, giving us a 77 gain since i started recommending it in may of 2016 shopify has been a juggernaut, and that run has continued as the stock has more than doubles yeartodate its up 120 why are they performing so well and can they keep climbing here . Let me give you some background if youre not familiar with these two and use comparison for how to evaluate securities something im sure grateful to be able to talk about, when theres other business and political news that i find so depressing etsy is on online marketplace for unique goods, especially high quality, hand crafted stuff. My daughter made some pillows and tried to sell them on etsy plus, theyve got terrific tools that help entrepreneurs get their businesses growing despite not seeming to care about profitability, this thing is firing on all cylinders shopify is a little different. It started life as a web based snowboard store, but the founders were so disappointed with the Ecommerce Software tools they created their own it didnt take them long to realize other merchants needed a platform to sell their Products Online shopifys software can handle everything from marketing to payments to shipping so that businesses can focus on doing what theyre doing good at rather than agonizing about something they dont know that much about, the web and technology in sort, etsy is an internet market based shopify has been a better performer, but will shopifys stock continue to trounce etsy the performance disparity is easy to explain. Etsy delivered 19 new growth. Down from the 39 figure from last year. But shopify is growing like a weed they delivered 75 Revenue Growth and the deceleration of shopify has been more gradual. What about margins okay, etsys gross margin, what it makes after the cost of goods sold, increased by 220 basis points in 2015 and 170 basis points in 2016, climbing to 66. 2 . However, 2017 a little different, that trend has reversed, gross margin coming in at 65. 5 last quarter. Sh shopify declined by 120 basis points last year, down to 54 . But lately, its increased by 390 basis points so theyre closing the margin gap. Still, the gross margin might not be the best metric to use. Im showing you how people in these big firms make their judgments. Shopify and etsy arent in the same business. But they operate in adjacent areas. How about adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, and depreciation shopify tracks adjusted income earning. Its difficult to do an actual apples to apples comparison. Etsys margin surged up to 15. 7 . Its come back down in 2017, to 12. 5 last quarter these are hard companies to analyze. Shopify has been improving steadily its still below zero, meaning even before the impact of interest and taxes, the company is losing money. However, shopifys consistently been moving toward profitability, while etsys product has been more erratic. The stock market loves a story about a company losing money, starting to make money with accelerating or good Revenue Growth shopify. Finally, how about the earnings to the extent they have some etsy just became profitable. They earned ten cents a share. Shopifys losses have been shrinking. Theyre still losing money or the companys preferred nongaap number which showed a one cent loss profitability is where etsy shines but shopify has accelerated growth etsy named fred wilson, an old friend of mine, they named him chairman hes a no nonsense guy, all about profit and growth. I like that. Etsy has one more thing going for it in 2015, we thought amazon would be launching a direct competitor to etsy. In this year, where it feels like no one can stand up to amazon, etsy took amazons best shot and kept kicking. In fact, the company has now gotten stronger. Not many businesses can go from losing to making money when theyre in amazons cross hairs. Usually its the other way around so which of these Small Business facilitators has the best stock . Shopify has a better growth story. But shopify the stock, heck of a lot more expensive it trades at 10 times sales estimates, one of the most expensive stocks around. But think about this shopify is even more expensive a stock than snap,a poster child for expensive stocks normally i prefer to use a pricetoearnings multiple but etsy just became profitable. Shopify wont turn a profit until next year. So those numbers dont tell you as much as i would like to do on the show shopify may have faster growth, but youre getting much better value with etsy. So heres the bottom line in trying to explain how big Money Managers pick stocks and evaluate them. Shopify and etsy both look good. While shopify has been a strong performer, etsy is the cheaper stock. That said, wait for the next market pullback if you like either stock and i hike the stock of amazon better than both when in doubt, bet on the company that the retailers are calling the dark star, because theres no denying its reach and ability to dominate, even if it couldnt crush etsy in the handy space. Randy in tennessee caller thanks for what you do for us out here thank you caller i was listening to you on yesterdays show talking about how amazon is just devastating all the stocks of brick and Mortar Retailers, but i may have found one with no debt and lots of cash. What do you think of francescos holdings, either as a shortterm trade or longterm buy i always appreciate a real value. My problem is, i was on that Conference Call and it was d dispiriti dispiriting. And while it is a cheap stock, down 54 , i have no catalyst that would turn the company around and that is problematic to say the least. Small business ecommerce is fighting back. Shopify and etsy are holding their ground wait for pullback it is you like either one much more mad money ahead. Yesterday, gold prices suffered their deepest oneday decline in six weeks. Ill sit down with a very under the radar gold mining play to see where the commodity could be headed this company is interesting. And its been tough to be a retailer in this market, but we saw several fight back today fight out which of these stockks be buys regardless of amazon and rapid fire, tonights edition of the lightning round so stick with cramer for your heart. Your joints. Or your digestion. So why wouldnt you take something for the most important part of you. Your brain. With an ingredient originally found in jellyfish, prevagen is now the number one selling brain Health Supplement in drug stores nationwide. Prevagen. The name to remember. Sne could this be a good time to hide some money in gold, given all the admitted craziness in the world right now . I have no problem with getting some gold exposure as a hedge against geopolitical chaos where i normally favor owning gld, tonight i introduce you to a company, i saw it today. They rang the bell, they just listed on the New York Stock Exchange Kirkland Lake is some high quality, low cost mines in canada and australia and grown like crazy this is a very well run gold miner. Thats why the stock, which only traded in canada until this morning, is on fire. Its more than doubled in 2017 could it have more room to run lets take a closer look with the ceo with the Company Welcome to mad money. Good to see you, sir have a seat. I would hike to say youre the midsize gold company nobody ever heard but if i lived in canada i would know it. How much is because you have low finding costs . Well, we have really good geology. Weve got two great deposits, 2 million ounces reserved. And another 2 million ounces in resour resourc resources, and we still have a Large Resource and the mine in australia has become a special deposit and turning into quite something and i dont think weve demonstrated what it is, but its a million ounces right now at close to 18 grounds per ton. Gold at 1200 what do you make when you pull up an ounce . Were one of the lowest cost mines in the world well under 250 an ounce thats a lot of profit per. The reality is, no matter what we do, we could be mining whether were mining gold or anything, were here to make money and were profitable Mining Company it seems to me, you like e geology. Your assets are in safe places its relative the biggest part of our assets are in canada and australia. These are politically stable places the Australian Government doesnt seem like theyre ready to expropriate or anything like that itwe operate in governments that are modern thinking and progressed but i dont say that in africa that they are in bad spots eith either he said to me, its not for sissies. His company isnt. I think i can work at kirkland without worrying i would be called a sissy or not. I wanted to get a sense of where youve been, so to speak Kirkland Lake gold has not been on the radar screen. Why is that . The american radar screen, is that because of the listing issue . Well, really last year was a transformational year for the company. We went from being a single asset mine with one mine in kickland lake. We did two mergers last year the st. Andrew gold company, which had three operating mines just north of Kirkland Lake. And then the fosterville sorry, new market gold, which had in fosterville gold mined in australia. We put it together and made a new gold producer and have had solid performance. Lots of gold at these assets and lots of new gold could be discovered then we come up with a different way of business. Mark has taught me about supply and demand. The think i wanted to ask is, north korea. People have been talking about th thermonuclear war and a lot of chaos in american politics shouldnt gold be much higher . Gold is, the reality is where gold is, yeah, it should be higher, it could be higher thats why we put our investment in gold. We think gold is the right thing to be not only producing but investing ourselves in fair enough thats tony makuch new company, Kirkland Lake gold. Mad money is back after the break.

Were seeing some chains that can compete, can even win in this difficult new environment which one is a winner so far tjx reported a good quarter, with the Home Division putting up 7 same sale store growth and boy, were we ever recarded, tjx put on a clinic what you can do to beat amazon, lower prices for branded goods. They buy them from other stores that are closing branches. It may be the only retailer around that wants to grow its store base, especially for younger shoppers who are strapped for cash. As the ceo ernie herman told us in his Conference Call, and i quote he went on to say they spend to open 260 stores this year and add 1700 or so addition allocations on top of the over 3900 they have now hey, most people are closing stores, not opening them tjx doesnt need any help defeating amazon he said that amazon, which is run by the owner of the washington post, which has been highly critical of the president , is doing a great damage to tax paying retailers towns, cities and states throughout the u. S. Are being hurt. Its funny, thats the playbook of walmart, of the tax paying walmart. Thats what it did to all the mom and pop stores throughout the country. Walmart reports tomorrow i think it will be good. I dont know what trump can do about amazon, given that it, like walmart, has lowered prices for 317 million americans. It would be highly unusual for the Justice Department to bring a case against any company that saves voters billions each year. The last thing trump needs is to bring a case to raise prices and Urban Outfitters is a fashion player thats something that l brands doesnt have after the close tonight. And then theres target, where the Ceo Brian Cornell give you 32 growth in digital. Thats the best ive seen so far. And fantastic numbers, driven by the successful cap and jack clothing product line, 2 billion in sales i was impressed with the new small format stores. Theyre quite good looking also the movement into College Campuses that cornell promised, its happening and working its mostly electronics that have been disappointing. The nintendo switch, as well as the apple watch and tablet contributed to a massive turn in those aisles food and drugs were no longer a drag cornell lowered expectations a t the beginning of the year and he trumped them handily now, if you recall, i didnt think home depot was worthy of the criticism or the fourpoint decline they experienced yesterday. That was the spector of amazon keeping the stock down however, the stock ignited today, and i think it could go higher, as could costco, which started looking up after reporting excellent numbers. My take, tjx barely moved on its excellent quarter, which makes it a screaming buy ervin moved a great deal, and target works fine for me, too. At least for now stick with cramer.

Lets dig deeper and well be speaking with chuck robins tomorrow on squawk on the street. This is a bit of a losing streak, so we have to figure out whether the losing streak can be snapped. How about a winning streak i think that walmart is going to report a good number remember, not everybody is rolling over and playing dead when it comes to dark star amazon i like to say theres always a bull market somewhere, and i promise to find it for you right here on mad money.
