Fear At Work - Cramer's Stop Trading (9/17/08)

Not too long ago Mr. Cramer predicted that the market had bottomed. I would advise evryone to take anything he or anyone else on national television has to say with "a grain of salt". Trust your own instincts and do not listen to these jokers. Remember, they are on television to make money for themselves and thier networks. Do not be deceived.

Barton Biggs and Bob Brinker Are Both Bullish

Bob Brinker - I have always enjoyed his shows and commentary. I decided earlier this year to subscribe to his newsletter, the "Market Timer" due to all of the market turmoil. Bob first advised to buy in the S&P low 1300's only to send an alert out and change his mind after the market dropped further than he had predicted. A few weeks ago he said to buy in the S&P low 1200's, only to send out another alert and change his mind again after the fact. My warning to everyone is to trust your own insticts (as I should have. I would be much better off now if I had stuck to my own plan) and not to expect to get good advice from a newsletter. Anyone can react after the fact. I would not consider that "market timing".
