Thanks for ripping off the entire article by someone else. Isn’t the purpose of a news blog to show a “little” snippet? I’d much rather the actual creator of the article get the ad revenue then this website.

Or you could start your own business and fuck Wall Street.

I would think that not knowing his butt from a hole in the ground would be typical of the people hired to give out stock advice on the air.

If he was actually any good at picking stocks he’d be making his money that way.

While Cramer’s still an idiot, saying he does worse than the indexes doesn’t say much. Most mutual funds do worse than the indexes, and these are supposedly professionals.

With the exception of Dvorak, Cramer gets it right in his craft more than any current tech journalist.

Not that Dvorak has an amazing record or anything, but he has not been outlandishly wrong like every other person who fashions them self a tech journalist.

How anyone could watch this guy for more than 30 seconds without changing the channel is beyond me. Anyone vacuous enough to stay tuned deserves go go broke.

What’s the big surprise, it should be obvious by now that no one can predict the future.

If there is one thing every single one of these “Stock Experts” have taught us, is that they’re not.

We’re teaching this stuff in schools and giving out doctorates on the subject. Yet no one in the business world applies enough common sense to it in the real world to spot obvious ponzi schemes, monopolies, and out right theft on national scales have some pretty drastic consequences.

A few years back, O’Reilly interviewed Jesse Ventura. When O’Reilly started a sentence with “As a journalist…”, Ventura said: “You’re not a journalist, you’re an entertainer.”

So with Cramer, Limbaugh and/or Olberman. Comedians all. They just missed the borscht belt era, where they would have received better training!

People actually watch this clown? Just do some of you own research and use your brain and maybe read a book or two and you won’t have to listen to this incompetent blow hard asshat.
