Speculation Shows

helk · 08-12-2005, 11:00 AM

I don't know if everyone enjoyed the two speculation shows, but I thought they were great. They weren't as exciting as his normal shows, but they were full of great information that could make you and save you lots of money. I play with mainly 'Mad Money', so I buy a lot of what Jim considers to be 'speculative' stocks and found his information to be right on target. Many of the tips he suggested I had to learn myself the hard way - especially about the OTC BB stocks (stick to the major markets!). If you're thinking of getting into speculative plays be sure to watch these shows a few times to absorb the information. Glad to see they played some quality shows during his vacation.

I'm glad he aired those shows. I picked up some good ideas to add to my bag of trading ideas.

Cramer contradicts himself, constantly. I can't use his info to speculate, he makes no sense, half the time, then changes his mind during the next discussion.

I have to agree with that last post. He does seem to move all over the map sometimes. I try and listen to his reasoning for "Best of Breed" picks. Remember 5-10 stocks at a time and 1 hour per week per stock to "buy and homework"

His idea about "best of breed" seems to be true, for the most part. I do get good ideas from Cramer, don't get me wrong there. I wouldn't bother watching him, if I didn't, but trying to keep track of him and his contradictions can be aggravating and I'm not just talking about stock picks. Of course those can change with the direction of the market, at any time. Tracking the calls he made four months ago, the way some people are doing on the internet, is a waste of time. I don't know what anyone thinks that proves.

I didn't mean the way Thierry is providing daily recaps for us, that's helpful. Thanks!
