thats like saying sterns instead of stearns....learn how to spell big ticket

If you’re going to point out spelling errors, especially if you’re going to be concerned about spelling errors in proper names, perhaps you could learn some basic rules of grammar yourself. Start with rules about capitalization and punctuation.

This board is for people that know what they are talking about and have the proper facts before shooting off their mouths



Cramer started privately investing in the stock market during his time at law school,[1] using his student loans. Cramer began leaving stock picks on his answering machine, impressing The New Republic owner Martin Peretz, who gave him $500,000 to invest; Cramer earned Peretz $150,000 in two years.[5]



His track record helped Cramer obtain employment in 1984 as a stock broker in Goldman Sachs’ Private Wealth Management[9] division. Cramer’s success in this position led him to found his own hedge fund, Cramer & Co. (later Cramer, Berkowitz, & Co.), in 1987. The fund operated out of the offices of hedge fund pioneer Michael Steinhardt’s Steinhardt, Fine, Berkowitz & Co., and early investors included Eliot Spitzer (a Harvard classmate and one of his oldest friends),[10] Brill, and Peretz.[11]



A year later, Cramer married Karen Backfisch-Olufsen, a trader with Steinhardt’s firm.[citation needed] Cramer’s fund had one down year from 1988-2000 while he ran it, in 1998, a year that was disastrous for many in the industry. Cramer, Berkowitz finished down 2-3% and they did not charge a management fee that year to their clients. In 1999 the fund returned 47%; in 2000 28%, beating the S&P 500 by 38 percentage points.[5] Cramer retired from his hedge fund in 2001, finishing with a 24% average annual return over 14 years and having “routinely [taken] home $10 million a year and more.”[5] The fund was taken over by his former partner Jeff Berkowitz after Cramer’s retirement.

Buffett, while I don’t agree with is politics, has been the model value investor and there's little to knock him on. Yes, he benefits from a system where he's viewed as a god when it's more fair to say he's just a demi-god, but that's no reason to hate the guy. When the world was buying anything with “internet” connected to it, he was buying the kind of value stocks he understood and when asked why he was honest enough to admit he didn’t understand the valuations of highfliers of the day and would stick to what he understood.

Art Cashin has more street wisdom in his little finger than the entire readership of Registered Rep will ever have. He’s always self-effacing, always calm and reasonable he leaves space to disagree with others without making everything a “mine‘s bigger than yours“ contest. You can disagree with his day to day views on the market from time to time, but the man’s a class act. Five decades on the floor, boys. Respect that and respect the way the man carries himself. I’d consider myself lucky as hell if I ever got the chance to marinate some ice cubes with the guy. Serious old school.

Jim Cramer is a clown. The rolled up shirt sleeves first thing in the morning, the loose tie trying to signify the “I’ve been working all night following the Asian markets” when it’s really just a costume makes me ill. The “BOOOYA” and “SKEEDADDY” nonsense is more professional wrestling and entertainment than anything else. But the thing that ticks me off the most about this fool is the emotionalism. He’s as bad as some of my worst clients. When the market’s up, he’s a super-bull, when it’s down he wants to buy a four year CD. Worse yet, he will never acknowledge how much of a manic-depressive he is on stock picks. If the market’s off 300 points, he’s there telling people how he’s warned them away from stocks. When it’s up, he’s practically giddy, talking about how he found you that bull market he’d promised. Had anyone else made calls like “Don’t sell Bear Stearns” and “Lenny Dykstra is a talented money manager” with the over the top conviction he uses, their career would be over. His appearance on The Daily Show should have been the final nail in his coffin.

[/quote] My clients put some money, big money with a hedge fund manager he had on Street.com back about 8 years ago.  North of a million, the guy had alleged huge returns (30% annual) wrote a column on Street ..  Anyway there was a fast run on the money, cftc came in and said the money is gone and the returns in the past where all lies.  The money which was supposedly in the markets was in an orange crop in Peru according to the CFTC.  They could never track down the people they hid the money in such a complicated way, it was genius.  Client got back 40,000 for his 1,000,000..

Cramer is worth about 200 mil. So he’s done something right

  That means as much to me as the fact that the Jonas Brothers have convinced a large group of people that they make music or that people care about what Paris Hilton's doing.

A buddy of mine’s brother called in and managed to stump the idiot with a question (eventhough the questions are given to him prior to the show).  He danced around the question and never gave an answer. 

  What an ass hat.

Cramer is host of CNBC’s Mad Money and co-founder of TheStreet.com. According to the January 27, 2006 episode of High Net Worth on CNBC, Cramer has accumulated a net worth of over $100 million



There sure is a huge amount of jealousy towards Cramer on the this board
