    wouldn't the headline "yahoo still exists" raise more eyebrows?

    You know watching cnbc and trying to get stock picks is the equivalent to watching sportscenter trying to find teams to bet on.

    Lol Google could never buy Yahoo because of a little thing called "Anti Trust"

    Kramer is entertaining to watch and he seems to know his shit. But, its very difficult to pick stocks. In my Business Stats class we found this study that stated, that if you just picked a random stock for NY Times top 100 you would have a better return rate then a professional stock broker.

    I thought they had a deal before in the past, and it broke up. I remember reading it a few months ago.

    Because they won't hire you regardless if you can beat their performance.

    Not going to pretend to be knowledgeable when it comes to the market, but after watching one episode of Kramer's show I could tell he holds too much power, and could easily be bought to pump up a stock... so what stops him ?

    Anyone who listens to these stock shills needs their head examined. Especially Jim Cramer. He is not better than a common ditch-thief.

    Good question, I know he personally can't buy any stocks at all for profit. But as for companies paying him personally to promote their stock, I think has to be illegal some where.

    But as I stated, anybody who says they can pick stocks at some great return is just bull shitting you or runs a Ponzi scheme. Look at all the greedy ***** who were in Bernie Madoff's 'investment fund'. He didn't have to promote this fund at all, it was passed on by word of mouth because of the great returns he had, no one really cared how he did it.

    Yahoo goes up for sale like once a year. Could be a good buy though anti-trust concerns abound.

    Kramer doesn't move markets. If you think the people watching his show have the buying power to change the avg bid/ask you should just hand your dough to your local Fidelity broker and let him do his thing.

    Institutional money doesn't give a rats ass if kramer rates something buy or sell.

    In the end kramer is doing a good thing if only he makes average investors aware of the mechanations of the markets.

    Cramer told everyone Bear Stearns was a good buy 5 days before they liquidated. He's a fukkin charlatan, just like most of the muppets on TV.

    I love Kramer, watch him often, smart as a whip, waiting for him keel over with a heart attack on day if he does not settle down though

    definitely have to take everything with a grain of salt but im sure he does get into some sec-violating manipulation-type schemes.

    he often has good information and insight aswell in terms of what sectors might be bull or bear.

    Just get a pet chimpanzee and a dartboard, and stop wasting your time with stock touts.
    Right now, with the PPT in place, you are basically playing bingo. I would say that as it is right now, sports gambling is probably more legit than Wall Street.

    More Proof This is for Real:

    http://www.reuters.com/article/2011/...7936WG20111005

    Remember in the Stocks and Economics Section of SBR I Wrote a Post About Jumping on Goodrich Stock two days before it Got bought out and if you listened then you woulda made a free $10 a share.

    I've warned this guy in the past about buying stocks on takeout rumors AFTER the price has gone up 10% or 20% or more. If you keep doing this you will get get burned.
