Will the Exxon Go Green? Fast Money Recap (5/27/08) [view article]
"Karen Finerman says there is enough money to diversify into alternative energy, and Najarian agrees". Two communist, they are traders to this country, and are undermining this country as our enemies do. All the GREEN MEANIES should crawl in a hole some where, and let this country, and its FREE market operate unhindered. ReplyIndustries to Avoid, Industries to Buy [view article]
Your comments re: Medicare Part D...The majority of meds will be generic. The 'takers' with no risks taken, no path to production factories, no indication of what's in their product other than a USP # to 'claim' it's the drug without the brand name.
Kaiser's used generics for years. Mom complained that her generic vicodin was hurting her stomach (can't tolerate aspirin). I had product analyzed: contained aspirin, acetominophen, caffeine; NO narcotic. How many will die, have adverse reactions, lose disease control (seizure disorders, diabetes, hypertension, angina, etc) because NO ONE is monitoring generics or factories.
Anderson Cooper 360 on CNN did story on this last fall, 2007.

Pharma's troubles are more about an imbalance between new drug discoveries and expiring patents--and subsequent slow FDA approvals-- than who's in Washington (within reason). Barr had a SAFE morning after Pill they wanted to go over the counter with and the kooky REPUBLICAN FDA slowed it down-- not the Democrats. ReplyCramer: How An Obama Win Would Impact Healthcare Stocks [view article]
If Hillary care had passed the pharma stocks would have been killed. The only reason they rallied in the 90's was the death of Hillary Care. Only Cramer thinks that the run in pharma would have happened if Hillary care had passed.If Obama care passes the pharma stocks get killed. If it doesn't there will be a run

I agree with fxtrader. Cramer is an entertainer and a poor one at that. He is an extremely poor stock picker and investor. Nonetheless, government intervention does not help anyone but those on the government payrolls. Considering that Rev. Wright is Obama's mentor and hero, that seems to say it all.

"A CANDIDATE OF CHANGE--A HOLLOWMAN THAT RESEMBLES AMERICA TODAY- OUR SOUL IS BEING STRIPPED OUT OF US AND GIVEN TO THE ARAB FOR THEIR STINKING OIL"I hate to respond to "ALL CAPS" people, but 1) Obama is an expert in Constitutional Law. The national disgrace sitting in the White House right now probably can't SPELL "Constitution&quo... 2) Mr. Bush is a Texas Oil man 3) and an unsuccessful one at that. He recent begged pathetically for mercy before the Saudi Dictators and they laughed in his face. They understand that the immediate issue with oil prices is the direct result of Bernacke's irrational hatred of the US dollar (slashing interest rates). Reply

well, i couldn't care less what the scam artist and pump 'n dump hedgie cramer says.It speaks volumes of investors' education that they still listen to his predictions other than for pure (and poor, btw) entertainment.
want a real money making recommendation in health care , no matter who wins the presidential election: generics, preferably (from a valuation point of view) Mylan (MYL). They will be the first to gain big time when healt care system starts to switch to less expensive drug alternatives. It has happened in Europe, it will happen in the u.s.. and it will happen in the emrging markets, too. sure, there are also generica prucers emerging - but they will have to build trust and confidence first, over a couple of years. until then people even there would perefer established, global players like teva and mylan Reply

bought UNH today $33, it looks bottomed, cheapest, cheaper than WLP. HMOs aren't going away. You think it's going under p/e 9? ReplyCramer: How An Obama Win Would Impact Healthcare Stocks [view article]
I'm avoiding the entire sector. I'm willing to speculate on supply, demand, interest rates, exchange rates, and even the weather. But politics is just too goddamn random. If you forced me to buy a health care stock, I'd look at a non-US medical device manufacturer. I wouldn't even consider a US company, no matter what it makes or does, and I wouldn't consider a drug manufacturer. Obama, McCain, Clinton, makes no difference. I might as well call up Vegas and bet on black. ReplyCramer: How An Obama Win Would Impact Healthcare Stocks [view article]

The problem that even Obama is not worried about is the Health Insurance industry. It is complete overhead. Put all the controls on that, or better yet, abolish it and start over. Reply
