Wall Street Breakfast: Must-Know News

We need to get rid of both the Democratic religion and the Republican religion.

VOTE INDEPENDENT TO GET REAL LEADERSHIP.

A Buy & Hold Forever Dividend Stock Portfolio

It's better to buy the QQQQ's and DIA and S&P's. That way you have a little mutual fund and only own 3 stocks.

Is Sun Ready to Give Up?

Sun had a reverse stock split as you mentioned. Now they want to add more shares and more incentive plans. Why would anybody buy this company?

U.S. Economy: Is the Glass Half Full?

Excellent article Tom -
Much better than the crap Cramer dishes out.
I agree with you 100%

11 Stocks Selling Below Cash

The article and the comments are very informative. I want to especially thank Vladimir Senkov as he brought out some points I didn't know about.

Bears Have Rallies Too

How much can you make on the downside? How much can you lose if a stock tock takes off and you are selling short? It's silly to be on the short side in this market with almost every quality company selling for less than 17 times earnings.

Don't Buy Into Share Buybacks

Andrew Mickey:
Most of the comments disagree with you and I also have to disagree with you. If you do your homework and ignore the Cramers and their weak advice then I feel you will make money on the stock market.
My favorites are the gaming stocks. They are quite low and show lots of promise when the market turns around.
Remember Buy low, Sell high.

I feel that God is pushing us forward into alternative means of energy and teaching us to live within our means.
Believe me that is not God you see vacationing in Hawaii.

13 Stocks at Bargain Basement Levels

We need more writers like Alexander Green to give positive news.
Sure there are lots of strong companies that are bargains, but he's sending a lot of people in the right direction which is to buy when the market is down.

Agrochemical Sector a Bright Spot in Slowing Global Economy

I agree with Global E that it's good to get some positive information for a change.
I also agree that S&P plus Cramer and Moody's and quite a few other so called analyst should be ignored and exposed for their corruption or uneducated guesses.

Thank you Right in San Francisco - I think there is more to the continued downturn than people being scared. Someone or some group is trying to terrorize the world economy, especially ours.
There is no logical explanation for this devastating downturn. I have a feeling it will start moving up after the election.
Thank you Rachael for this article

Must Settle - Cramer's Stop Trading! (10/20/08)

Mr.Pessimistic Optimestic,

...just two points to critique your reply:

I. You use the word "hate" too many times. And, it's not applicable here __ for me anyway. I cannot hate the man. I know he needs a job; but he should find one he's good at.

2. The vast majority of my equity holdings are in Franklin Templeton Funds, which are down of course.
I sold some over a year ago, which turned out to be a good move. I sold Harrah's (gaming) over a year ago that netted four times my investment. I'm only slightly wounded; so the sour grapes syndrome would not apply here either.

I cannot watch Cramer for more than five minutes at a time. Like I said, he trys to turn a serious subject into a side-show.

As for Boeing, it's a great company. I don't want to see it go the route of the American auto industry. The principles of that company should communicate with the employees and the union often, on how important it is to stop some of the "gimm'e, gimm'e, gimm'e" and point to the GM, Ford situation.

Good luck to you all __ the investors. Make your own decisions based on your own knowledge and the economic conditions. I do.

Must Settle - Cramer's Stop Trading! (10/20/08)

Mr. MSmailbox,

Your metaphor of comparing Cramer to a beaten-down stock is overly optimistic. He will be "delisted".

Has he EVER even been a penny stock? NO!
He's a side show __ and not very entertaining at that.

You're a great historian, Cramer. Tell us something we don't already know. But, it's better to read your ideas here, than to see your ugly mug on television.

Give us a break __ why don't you just take your information and use it for your own investing purposes and let someone with a better vision have your spot on the tube.

Hope to NOT see you later,
