Jim Cramer on CNBC Tonight...

Discussion in 'Wall St. News' started by syswizard, Jan 4, 2016.

  1. He was a complete maniac talking at a rate of speed and elevated loudness not witnessed in quite a long time.

    Wow, he's really got a problem......It's so obvious now.....that ego of his has really gotten to him.

    Sorry, Jim, IMHO....you really suck. Your big problem: you never go short. And when the market does down, you look "stupid".

  3. He brought his wife in to undo the damage he had done in the fall of 98 (if I remember correctly)...Basically, the "Fed put" has been an investment strategy for decades now...When it expires, either temporarily or for a prolonged period, most of these guys are stuck in the exact same positions...Heck, just look at "FANG's"...

    His inability to call shorts is his doom, maybe he considers it unamerican like many idiots do, he shorts by saying "stay out". Basically he either buys or goes flat, his short button is broken but then again his show mostly targets the 401k type, long and hold.

    Does he still yell "booyah".
     
  6. Well Guys...thanks for that confirmation. You know tonite's performance was a huge revelation to me.... I've never seen him quite so "shaken up".

    If 2016 goes the way of the real pundits, his show just may be "OVER" this year.
     
  7. He's always been that way, IMO...I haven't watched in many years, but he has a completely bi-polar type of personality...and the whole "angry at the market when it goes down" is probably a part of his act to assuage his viewing audiences fears and anger as well...Kinda like "I can't believe this market could drop, Yellen better do something" kinda like he put on back in Sept.

    I guess you folks haven't been around long enough to remember what a basketcase Cramer is. Check out this 2007 video. This one goes down as a classic of all times.

    Remember, there's no bad publicity, it's all a stunt.

    Almost 10 years later and you replaying/posting one of his videos, brilliant marketing is what this is.

    No, it really was THAT BAD at the time. Three of the five biggest investment banks went under.

    Don't wanna rock the boat too much but some of you would really benefit if you revisit the past. :rolleyes:
