Cramer's lightning round: This business is better than people think

Gene Blevins | Reuters. Jim Cramer zooms through his take on callers' favorite stocks, including a ripe-for-the-picking data play.

It's that time again! Jim Cramer rang the lightning round bell, which means he gave his take on callers' favorite stocks at rapid speed:

Groupon (NASDAQ: GRPN): "I think there's real worth here. I still think the stock could get to $5. The business is better than people think."

Exelixis (NASDAQ: EXEL): "Development-stage biotech company. You know from Alder Bio (NASDAQ: ALDR) that I'm a little gun-shy . I think it's moved too much."

Carnival Corp. (NYSE: CCL): "I do indeed [think you should buy shares in Carnival], because [CEO] Arnold Donald has made that into a technology company that also carries passengers on boats."

Tableau Software (NYSE: DATA): "Sheesh, you know, there was a research note that I read this morning that said that this thing is really on fire. We had them on, you know I like them very, very much. I think Tableau's a buy."

Lloyds Banking Group (London Stock Exchange: LLOY-GB): "It's a decent spec, but you know I'm a big believer and I tell club members of ActionAlertsPlus.com that if you really want European exposure, my favorite is the EZU. That's the iShares MSCI Eurozone ETF (BATS: EZU)."

Newell Brands (NYSE: NWL): "OK, Newell Brands, this is [CEO] Mike Polk. Very initially, it was not a good merger in terms of just so much craziness that they had to do to get together – this is Jarden and Newell. I think he's done that. The last quarter was good. I think that's a harbinger of more quarters to come and was not one-off. I always welcome Mike when he reports."

MGM Resorts (NYSE: MGM): "OK, there was a note this morning about junketeers out of China and maybe they're going to crimp on them. I've read these notes over and over and over again. I remain committed to MGM. I think it's a good story."
