  • Cramer's Stop Trading! Dow Doomsday Scenario (3/6/09) [View article]
    Cramer is not even good background noise.
    When CNBC folds, he can always seek employment with Ringling Bros.
    The red wig may be the only makeup he will need.

    I looked up Jim Cramer on Google and I recommend you do the same before you follow his advise.

    Thanks for the list. I hope you show this list every month.

    One just has to pick the companies from the list and the sector that he likes and understands best

  • If Obama Doesn't Balance Trade, China Will Steal More U.S. Industries [View article]
    Look to Mexico __ begin now, by bringing one industry at a time into the northern hemisphere. Helping our neighbors will help ourselves and will in the future ease border problems.

    Bring manufactured goods only on trains from Mexico.
    Begin, as part of our green program, allowing natural gas powered trucks only coming from Mexico with perishables.

    You know it can be done; but will we ever get elected people to work for us?

    Why do we continue to elect the clueless?

  • Cramer's Lightning Round - Boeing Takes a Nosedive (12/4/08) [View article]
    The Dreamliner will be delayed 6 months due to Boeing's strike this year. The unions time has passed and they should be abolished. For that reason Boeing went down today but I think they will start to move up again. I never listen to old news Cramer.

  • A Buy & Hold Forever Dividend Stock Portfolio [View article]
    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.

  • Must Settle - Cramer's Stop Trading! (10/20/08) [View article]
    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) [View article]
    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,

  • Stop the Week, We Want to Get Off [View article]
    The real "terrorist" of late are the producers of pesssimism, like the ratings companies, and "journalist slop" such as this __ all added to the probability that "Robinhood" will be elected to the White House.

  • Wall Street Breakfast: Must-Know News [View article]
    The Unions had better think twice about striking Boeing. They have all but killed the Auto industry in the past. The economy doesn't warrant jeopardizing your job with a layoff.

  • GM Best Stock Today - Fast Money Recap (9/2/08) [View article]
    Why would anyone sell GM short or any large corporation short? That's a dangerous move plus I have always felt you have to be a little sick to want or to gamble on hugh American companies such as GM to go bankrupt.
