Should Jim Cramer be thrown in jail?

Question

His picks stink.

Answer 1

I know what you mean by his picks stink, as with his proclaimed pick of SII.  I lost $25k on believing in his stock picks, however, if you steer clear of what he claims are good investments, and only retain the valuable information he provides on how to select a stock, how to do the extensive background checks on that stock and how many shares is a safe investent in that stock and then, apply this knowledge to your own trading tactics, it can be very profitable.

This individual has amassed several billion dollars as the highest regarded fund manager on wall street, and you do not get a reputation like this, especially in the fast paced financial world by making foolish investments, so in conclussion, I would suggest that you listen to his advise that is based on practical experience and his knowledge, but use a grain of salt before investing any of your own money in stock picks he suggests.

I am applying knowledge and experience I learned as a fax salesmen when they came onto the market, and I was making weekly sales of these new machines to foreign clients, like embassys, consulates and to offshore drilling platforms in the amount of 25 thousand per month.

I also have made a very comfortable living playing poker professionally and for a lighter type of personal relaxation, I do rather well in playing chess.

I am using all three of these skills when I make an investment into any type of stock, and so far, I have done exceedingly well for myself, building a successful portfolio of over $5M in about 19 business days.

My goal is to become a billionaire in two years, then kick back and retire, or join with other investors that are as successful and become a corporate raider.

Thank you

If we jail him, we'll have to continue to feed and clothe him.  Perhaps more drastic measures are in order.

I'm not advocating violence, mind you, I'm just saying, you know, accidents do happen...

Answer 3

You think so too, huh?  Talk about all mindless delivery!!!

Answer 4

I remember some time ago, people were praising Jim Cramer for being a stock genius. I guess this is part of what happens in a bear market.

Answer 5

Jim Cramer = Entertainment

When he mentions something you should never go on blind faith and do your research on the stock company news & profile...not the stock price.

Answer 6

There are a lot worse villans on Wall Street than Cramer.  Think instead the idiots in charge at C, MER,  BAC

Answer 7

I do not care to much for him either. He is all for show that is all
