I have Cramer fiqured out.

New Investors:
A. Cramer gets the non- investor to become an active investor.
B Cramer forgets that these new traders NEED GUIDENCE. How many times does he suggest a stock and you don't hear anything else about it till it goes down 30% and when a caller asks about it he tells them "you should have gotten out of that stock back in_____ " New investors don't know exit strategies and are listening to every word he speaks. JIM,START TO THINK OF WHAT YOUR DOING to new investors! He creates MAJOR gaps between his recommendations for new investors, thus, like leaving them out in a field with bobcats! NEW INVESTORS ARE LEARNING JIM AND YOUR HURTING THEM!

Solution:
Cramer needs to have a segment for the new investor daily, recommending just a few stocks and keeping up on those stocks DAILY! Teach the new investor what they should be studying and planing, telling the new investors NOT to get into anything else that he talks about or they could get hurt until they learn what they need to know. What he does now is just leave them hang out to be eaten!

The Show:

Do TECHNICALS and FUNDAMENTALS together! We know he uses charts, everyone on the Street uses charts. If not, at least have someone come on that does. Its part of the game! Let them talk charts then debate them why you disagree! You need new life in your show, lets call it ORGANIZATION WITH A PLANNED OUTLOOK!

Jim, you don't need new stocks to recommend on every show!! When you don't have a stock recommendation then TEACH something so we can do our own fishing! If Jim did this it would solve the next problem....

Don't recommend a sector one day and three days later SAY ITS NO GOOD!!! On Monday Jimm stated that the finacials are safe again! Gave us a lot of BULLISH recommendations in financial companies. Then today he says NON ARE SAFE, INCLUDING GS!!!
This problem deveolpled because Jim pressures himself to come up with something to recommend for every show. Come on, many times its best to sit it out! Jim, TEACH US something you havent covered those days that suck!


March 25,
On Monday's Mad Money show, Cramer interpreted the demise of Bear Stearns (BSC) as a signal to investors that buying stocks is safe again. On Stop Trading! Cramer said to ignore those who referred to this as a bear market rally. "People were talking about a rally in a bear market in 1991." That rally, Cramer said, lasted until 1997. http://www.onlinetradersforum.com/showthread.php?t=19294


I wish someone could email or hand deliver this to Cramer. Maybe WallStreetEdge could do it for us since he's across the street from him!

It is criminal how he leaves people hung out to dry. He's even said to buy "tomorrow", not wait 5 days or whatever.

Most important is he only recommends long because you can lose so big shorting. Hahahahha! Right! Can you say Bear vs Bull? Where is the common man's long term portfolio /IRA/401 right now?

No problem. Just think long term. How does 50 years from now, to recover, sound.

His show has enjoyed a bull market since it went on. Now............

Do TECHNICALS and FUNDAMENTALS together! Great assesment, I too have become interested in stocks since watching his show. He recommended JCPenny about a month ago and now Friday, it was sell-sell-sell,???, make up your mind. He always says to do your homework but he can lead you to the Gallows if your not on the case. it seems a stock goes down after he recommends it. I bought and sold AUY on his pick,not too bad,below 16, out at 19.99. He states, short sellers are killing stocks. I'll watch Fast Money,Cramer, and Larry Kudrow,although his guests are more realistic then he is- you get three sides of the stock market, after watching 3 hours of them shows,five days a week- you might run away screaming,LOL.

Cramer's show is geared largely to the under 35 crowd. Since the majority of his audience is relatively young, in theory, they can take the risk and lose from some of his picks. When to buy/sell is the stock holders choice, not Cramer's. He has contradicted himself and been wrong more than a few time... But, why should I blame him for a lose? It is my decision and money... My point is, his show and advice is targeted for people that have the time and life left in them to learn and recover from the experience of a loss. That is part of life...Whether they take the responsibility for their decision or scapegoat Cramer (or anyone else) is another matter.

Way to suck up, Wary. Why don't you call him and yell "Booooyaaaaaaaa!".

Do that right after he apologizes for another 50% loss on his calls.

How is his charitable trust doing, I wonder?

Who says his audience is younger? If true, they are more gullible, inexperienced and "oh so deserving" than anyone. How many actually buy and read his (or anyone elses) books as a foundation to act on his show.

I haven't heard him talk about "buy and homework" for a long time.

He has called THE bottom a couple of times now. We'll see how that goes.
