GE: Nuclear Growth Galore

I think the $90 billion figure meant about $3.2 each for the 28 reactors. Plus... I don't think the Christian Science Monitor is a reliable source of journalism or science (but that's another story).

Not a bad thesis. GE looks attractive right now on valuation.

1970s Style Stagflation? I Don't Buy It

Forget the money supply causing stagflation, how about $100 oil and commodities rising across the board... all with the US Fed powerless to stop international demand.

Is iGame Lurking In Apple's Future?

Okay, let's not get carried away now...

Will U.S. Recession Lead to Solar Depression?

It does not matter how good the fundamentals are on solar. What matters the psychology of institutional investors. Right now these stocks are overheated, and if we get a bad enough recession, people are just going to pull out of high-multiple stocks across the board. It's just plain sector rotation coordinating with the business cycle.

Why Today's Wall Street Is Like the Sinking of the Titanic

I take it you feel that we should wait until we are living in Hoovervilles before the Fed should cut rates.

Alternative Energy Investing and the Next President

Here we go with the big oil conspiracy theory. What facts do you have to support that electric cars are completely do-able with the same performance of regular cars? Those electric forklifts don't have to travel 75mph against the wind for hours at a time. If electric cars were so much within reach, why doesn't Ford make one that you can plug in at your garage right now?

Now There's An Ethanol Glut?! I Thought We Couldn't Make Enough

So you are relying on the government to push ethanol? Don't we have a change of administration coming up shortly? Won't be long before someone discovers ethanol is too impractical because we can't transport it by pipeline, its packs less energy, and its production is hurting everyone who eats farm-grown food.

Uranium Resources: A Perfect Play on Nuclear Energy

Why would this company be better than SXR Uranium One, which is building a nuclear powerhouse with mines in North America, South Africa, and Kazahkstan? Better yet, why not play uranium with the best of breed, Cameco (CCJ)?

How does URRE value based on Net Asset Value? What should the stock price be at a range of uranium prices?

The Short Case on MasterCard

Interesting idea, but I don't think the economy will slow enough to shut down the consumer to some terrible degree.

Barron's Debunks Cramer

Barron's scoffs at the Lightning Round picks and the pop-and-drop phenomenon after Cramer recommends a stock. He says it again and again in his show and even his book that you should not buy in after-hours or the next day after Cramer makes a pick. He knows that the stocks he recommends have a spike and relentlessly warns his viewers to wait before buying.

Before the Lightning Round begins, I don't think he can stress enough that those picks are not a full analysis like he does during the other segments. The Lightning Round is for show and gives viewers a chance to call in. It's TV! It's entertainment! ... and what's most important is that his fans enjoy it.

The show is not so much about what to buy or sell but about learning. He has inspired viewers across the country to take a better interest in the market and has helped students make career decisions.

Finally, a big flaw in the Barron's article is that it assumes every one of Cramer's picks is a long term holding. This is not the case. He tells you to take money off the table! A good number of Cramer's picks are intermediate-term trades (lasting only months). Taking profits is one of the show's motto's!
