    Why Cramer Should Be Suspended [view article]
    Cramer gave good advice when he suggested selling 20%, especially if you need the money. As it turns out, he was mostly right. As a side note, I sold stock about the time he suggested it. I bought it back on Friday morning. I sold it again this morning - largest gain I have ever made in 2 1/2 days- 50%. It helped make up for what I DID not sell. I basically buy and hold within ranges - long term. This time I took Cramer's advice "to sell to where you can sleep". Thanks, Jim.

    One point of confusion for me is that you are arguing against truth. The other is that Cramer is just a man willing to give an opinion. You are against that? You actually think that Cramer is responsible for the market tanking? You are actually willing to bet everything that this is THE? bottom. Good luck and maybe open your eyes a little.

    Cramer is like all of us sometimes right and sometimes wrong. Idiots who believe everything anybody says (even Cramer or Obama) deserve to be lead over the cliff. Reply

    CNBC is a joke. And MSNBC is Morning Joe, which I like, and a bunch of crap. Reply

    Hey, let's give Cramer a break. If not for him telling his army of disciples to "sell, sell, sell!" I might never have these once-in-a-lifetime opportunities to pick up growth stocks at PE's of <5 ---- AND!!! ----- below book value ---- WITH!!! ---- double-digit yields.

    Best of all, in a few months he will entice them all back into the market with 45 degree charts that start last week. PE's will again hit the 20's.

    The fools are like the tides - lots of energy to be harvested there. Yet I can't begin to imagine the losses to working class families who outsource their investment thinking to TV personalities. Lots of their kids won't be going to college.

    Jim Cramer is the only honest person in the game. He's on the side of the people and not the greedy and corrupt hedge fund and other market managers.</i>

    The above is one example of a manipulated Cramer tool. When you have zombies following his advice then good fundamentals on a stock doesn't matter anymore. I made money shorting an overvalued stock such as RIMM just last month but I don't believe in spreading rumors just to bring a stock down so I can make money.

    Cramer and his hedge fund buddies make money when enough of you listen to his advice. He is a crook and hopes to make money by shorting the stocks that he recommends. It is called pump and dump. His only difference is that he has a tv show. Anyone who watches his show and thinks that any of his advice is valuable is getting exactly what they are paying for ...... nothing. Reply

    While Cramer is known to everyone, I don't believe his credibility is high enough to influence a massive number of investors. Regardless, he may turn out to be right with his call to sell everything. In October, 1929, the Dow hit its peak of 381.17. It dropped to 198.69 over the next several weeks -- a drop of 48%. If a fictitious Cramer had said sell everything at that time it would have been good advice. After several major bear market rallies along the way, the Dow eventually dropped to 41.22 three years later in 1932. Getting out after the first major drop would have saved much more agony later on. While cycles never repeat the same way, I merely present this as food for thought. Reply

    Jim Cramer should not be suspended, he made me decent money from time to time just preaching some ridiculous nonsense to the general public and I just sit and wait until the idiots that listen to his show go out and buy the stock, so I can short it for a nice profit. Two examples if you watch his show he call the market bottom back I think it was around August and them he felt a little more daring and told his viewers to go out and buy Wachovia nice job there champ keep up the bad work.
