Why can't Cramer tell us what to short???

[NATHAN LLOYD]

I think, instead of his team spending all day trying so desperately to find a bull market that he's now speculating on takeovers--he said not to do this before, he could tell us what to short.

I think his ratings would jump up too. Is this unethical? I know that Fast Money show tells us what to short.

What do you think about this. I might just call him up just to ask him this question. I'll be like, "Cramer what do you think about shorting GOOG?"

Who thinks this would be a good idea?

I think its because of all his past troubles influencing lemmings, that contractually he is obliged to play with those handcuffs for the trust.

You see the cnbc101 this afternoon about the super shorts? what were they called- with the double inverse- but kinda like an etf?

Stick w/ one position, either long or short, hedging will limit your gains.
