Kramer has both of them in his fund and they're both doing okay.

What is Hewlett Packard? McDonald's food tastes yummy...but is really bad for you. I heard they got caught using sick cow meat for the hamburgers or something... :P

They are both stable companies. For someone seeking stability before gain, they should be safer then US bonds. It is very risky to invest in US dollars. I don´t have anything about US companies, but with the dollar devaluation that keeps on, the profits made on stock might be outweighted by the loss of the dollars. Its nice to make a profit on your investment, but does it mean so much when your purchasing power in that currency goes down and down ?

Cramer is more of a showman then stock expert. He choose MCD and HP because they are both components of the DJIA. So barring anything tragic or illegal, they will go up or down with the DOW. I don't follow either, so I can't give even an educated guess as to what they will do, other than the rise and fall of the DOW. I will say I am an ex chef and I have never and will never own a restaurant stock. There is as much risk in the stock as owning the restaurant,. Not even the good ones like, Chipotle Mexican Grill ... CMG One cow with mad cow disease or ecoli (sp?) can kill the whole chain. MCD could probably survive because it is so large.
