(NYSE:KR) is a play. With Kroger at $29 after a B of A upgrade said it could beat for years to come. The case against Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. (NYSE:WMT) is so fabulous that everyone wants in. He commented that when Lee Scott is finally dethroned, this wouldn't necessarily happen, but now the store is not what it once was. Lee Scott was one of 24/7 Wall St.'s <a href="http://www.247wallst.com/2006/12/ceos_who_need_t_1.html">TOP CEO's THAT HAVE TO GO</a> from December.<br /><br />Cramer adores Allegheny Technologies Inc.
