Jim Cramer, a former hedge fund manager, is the host of CNBC's Mad Money. Cramer expresses his views on stocks on his TV shows, which helps many ordinary investors who watch his show daily on TV make their own investments. Cramer also purchases many of the stocks he recommends for his charitable trust. Israel Englander was the founder of Millennium Management. Today, Englander is one of the top paid fund managers and Millennium has a portfolio of over $12 billion.
Both Cramer and Englander are among the smartest investors in the world. And we believe that by imitating their stock picks, investors are more likely to beat the market in the long term. Below we compiled a list of stocks both Cramer and Englander are bullish about. All stocks are in the most recent portfolio of Cramer’s charitable trust and in Englander’s portfolio at the end of June.
