Is Jim Cramer f@#$ing crazy?

Question

I saw this dude on TV today by hitting the wrong channel button on my remote. This guy seems like a total joke. I remember him from an episode of Daily Show when the news was Bear Stearns dropping to 2$ a share or somethin from 60$+ a share. and he was saying NO NO NO you shouldnt sell your bear stearns shares Bear Stearns is fine. And then John Stewert goes on to say how no matter how much good advice you give from this point on youre never gonna make up for all the money you blew for people.

he even talks like an as!hole

Answer 1

He is very smart. People are very stupid to take him seriously as far as his opinions on individual stocks. Take DSL for instance.

Answer 2

He's a madman, and that's why some people love him. He's there purely for entertainment - Do not(!) take advice from this man. But I really wonder who the people who find him entertaining.

Answer 4

Loud mouth with little substance in my opinion.

Answer 5

HAHAHAHAHA

You are full of it. It never happened.

Cramer answered one EMAIL from somebody that had a DEPOSIT in the bank that asked if they needed to pull out their money from the bank.

Cramer said DEPOSITS were safe, that it would likely be bought out or the Fed would step in if it looked like it would fail.  

Turns out Cramer was exactly right.

But he did NOT mention the STOCK. He had been saying to get out of financials for months.

Why do you want to tell lies about Cramer and claim you saw it?

Who is feeding you this false BS?  

And John Stewart is a COMEDY show. You didn't get the joke because you think it really happened.

Do you get all your financial information from comedy shows? LOL.

Answer 6

The Soupy Sails of investobabble.  Wrong more often than right.

Answer 7

Yeah he's crazy. Crazy like a fox.

Answer 8

You have to understand that TV is for entertainment and not for good financial advice.  

Jim Cramer is good at entertaining the audience.  And it doesn't really matter what he says, as long as he says it enthusiastically and in some entertaining way.

Virtually everyone likes to give advice to others, whether he knows what he is talking about or not.  And that's why you have to be very cautious about listening to other people's advice.  

Don't just trust and follow other people's advice in financial matters.   Think for yourself.  And if you don't fully understand something.  Then stay away until you do understand, no matter what advice other people give you.

Answer 9

I think Jim Cramer is a shil.
