“A study of Cramer’s picks once showed that he is correct slightly less than half the time. So you’d do better by just flipping a coin.”

What were the gains and losses?

Good question. My post #15 referred to a contest someone set up between Cramer’s stock picks and those of ‘Leonard the Wonder Monkey’. Leonard was actually a computer program that picked stocks randomly. Leonard won, but just barely.

It’s been years since I’ve followed this. So I just did a quick search. From what I could find, “winning” was determined by return on investment.
