are these guys serious, was just watching it and they said sell ILF and buy EEM, if you pull up a chart on these 2 you will see they trade nearly identically to each other. EEM being up less than ILF. What are these guys talking about. http://finance.yahoo.com/charts#cha...ine;crosshair=on;logscale=on;source=undefined
me thinks 5 days a week is just too much for a show of its kind. Recommendations will be diluted (not to mention the potential for conflicts of interest), and those traders will Stop Trading (!) like Jim Cramer and become 'Market Gurus' (yuk!).
I can't stand those f*cking "Fast Money" commercials. Dylan Rattigan's voice and the corny music is soooo annoying.
CNBC will do anything for ratings these days, especially during prime time to compete with other networks.
i enjoyed it when it was once a week. there guys are all sharp. but making picks 5 nights a week ala cramer is dumb... they might as well be daytrading...????
i think the concept was to long eem, short ilf to the percentage ilf was a portion of eem. so basically if ilf was 20% of eem, long $1000 eem, short $200 ilf. additionally you could just go long all the emerging markets by finding their own etfs and exclude anything socialistic.... seems like a silly trade truthfully
