Worst Wall Street Clichés

Here's the biggest cliché I have yet to understand:

Boo-yah!!!

Who the hell came up with such a boneheaded expression (I'm sure Cramer isn't smart enough to take the credit) and just what does it mean? LMAO

 

In your dreams.
Man, you people are cracking me up!

 

1- "Going forward"

2- "At the margin"

3- "Long term investors should be buying this selloff"

4- "It's too late to sell here (heard during the tech crash, Enron, Worldcom, Wachovia, Bear Stearns, Lehman, Countrywide, etc, etc, etc)

5- "Invest like Warren Buffet" (as if the average joe can get sweetheart deals like Warren did with Goldman, GE, etc).

 

Logical apathy.

 

[our system] works in any timeframe and in any market [- and for just $4,999 you too can make the market your personal ATM!]

 

It was a random knucklehead that said it to Cramer and it just stuck. Nothing more. It's part of our culture whether it makes any sense or not. Sometimes I think people just call to say it and shout out to their friends.

 

I'm going to buy some when it comes down to my price.

 

From anybody else but me:

"We are (overbought/oversold)."

 

CHIT-CHAT
