Jim Cramer on tonight's Mad Money was discussing a stock that was taken off the table after it ran huge. Cramer thinks that Syneron Medical Ltd. (NASDAQ:ELOS) really has the laser we're all looking for. He said he swapped out of it before in favor of Palomar Medical Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:PMTI), but since it fell from $40 to under $25 it is cheap. There is a catalyst coming next month that could reverse the stock drop after two bad earnings misses from higher expenses. ELOS rolls out a dental laser next month that isn't just cosmetic. This one does the same thing as drilling teeth and there are 200,000 dentists versus 18,000 dermatologists.

ELOS was up a mysterious 6.8% today to $25.70 on 4-times normal volume. Did one of Cramer's cronies doll out a stock tip into people's Christmas stockings or in place of Hanukkah dradles today? This stock is up another 4.4% in after-Cramer hours.

Cramer said rumors were out there today that the company would be acquired by Allergan, Inc. (NYSE:AGN), so that is his explanation for the run today. He thinks the buyer could be anyone since the company has only a $700M market cap. He thinks the worst is over. He nailed it once and said to take profits, but now he wants you back into ELOS.
