Since early last fall, the majority of pundits have been saying that there would be a rotation from small cap stocks to the safety of large cap stocks in the new year. So far, the small cap stocks have maintained the lead, but a shift is taking place and the longer the bull runs and the worse global news becomes, the more this is likely to continue.

I have decided to examine the largest of the large cap stocks; lets call them the "super" caps; the top twelve as of May 13, 2010. Over the course of this series, the order will change and the bottom few may fade in and out as the market activity dictates. I may update the order, but for simplicity's sake will not change the stocks from the current list.

Cramer says Time Warner going to $26

Today on "Mad Money," Jim Cramer discussed Time Warner Inc. (NYSE:TWX) and his Buy call from 8/23. He said then how he wouldn't even call it "Time Warner" until management began to focus on being a cable company and divested other businesses. As this seems to be what the company is doing, he said today that he will, indeed, call it "Time Warner" once again.

Cramer noted today that the two influential analysts from Bernstein and Morgan Stanley both upgraded the name and they are the ones that partially held it back. He said that cannot be coincidental, and both analysts were discussing the upcoming cable deals.

He said TWX is a straight shot going to $26, and you should get in it if you haven't.

TWX closed up 2.25% at $18.13, but traded up again over 2% to $18.55 after Cramer made his comments.

In a call-in just before discussing TWX, Cramer told a woman who sold Berkshire Hathaway Inc. (NYSE:BRK.A) to get back in, because he sees multiple years of good things coming from there.
