Stock Tickers: JCP, KSS, JCP, SHLD, RL, SKS, CROX

Cramer’s retail rovery is the topic of his video (thestreet.com video section) and noted these aren’t all blow-ups.  He thinks retail will have a couple day run and that he thinks gasoline prices are peaked.  So he thinks summer will be ok for retail, except for outdoor and furniture. Here are his picks: "Stick with JC Penney (JCP)" is what he said, as I figured he would.  Kohl’s (KSS) and Sears (SHLD) he still likes, but said Saks (SKS) is the go-to name ahead of next week’s earnings. Cramer also digs Ralph Lauren (RL) at $93.00 going higher.  Crocs (CROX) is one he thinks more good analyst calls will drive it up, but after that he’d say to go out.
