I diagnosed that SOB back in the Spring.

Anyone notice Cramer is really pushing the 20 dollar stocks lately? He has always had a propensity to push under $10 stocks especially in his stump cramer skit and also since he embaces speculation. But I have noticed lately he is abandoning his Best of Breed mantra in favor of 20-29 dollar stocks.

This is all fine and dandy but the damn lemmings move these low dollar stocks way too much. 2 bucks and it's up 10% and we know a 2 dollar jump is nothin' for the lemmings. From this point on I'm going to do some research and attempt to find his next picks. Can't be that hard if he's going to narrow the search for me.

Wikipedia is always changing, which is pretty cool. But I wanted to read more about the guy that accused Cramer of buying up a stock and then profiling it on his show. I know I've seen and read that guy's name before on Wikipedia about Jimmy C. Hm.....if I find it I will post his name, and we can all thank this guy for saying the obvious!

Sort of like tonight, when he was trying to get Altria back up so his trust could get out of this horrendous loser??? Looking at the aftermarket quote, people aren't falling for it this time. The stock is barely up...and some $20 below where it was the last time he tried to muscle it higher.

For one, people that watch his show shy away from anything over $30. MO being a $70+ stock will never move much as a result of the Cramer Effect. Cramer's lemmings will bid up a $3 stock they've never heard of and has never made a dime just because they can get 500 shares of it and and Cramer pumped it.

Furthermore, Altria was never 20 dollars higher than it is now. On the eve of the most recent court win it went up $5 from $73 to $78. Kraft is a drag on this stock and that is why it is suffering after they last reported earnings. It won't go much lower than where it is now due to the dividend. A 4.4% yield is better than some treasury bonds. So it looks like this is the floor for MO.

Look at the end of the article for the book under the heading of "Authorships"

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim_Cramer

Also note "Books about Cramer"

I am going to see if my local library can get the book through intra library loan
