He’s had a bad run for a while now. He started out living in his car, investing $100 at a time. He’s worth $150mm. His Charitable Trust gives away $millions annually.

All these guys have their periods of glory and periods of problems, Peter Lynch being a famous one as well. Doesn’t mean they are stupid, we are all dealing with systems that are not highly predictable. If they were, there wouldn’t be markets with winners and losers because most everyone would know what and when to buy and sell there’s no money in that.

It was up 1000, and now down 650. Very high volatile.

i believe he is now in the “put on a show” or “phone it in” phase... like a weather man... he only needs to be right sometime now...

Lou Rukeyser once started his "Wall Street" show with this tickler:

"Could a chimpanzee out-perform your mutual fund manager? Chances are - YES!"

He then went on to explain that less than half of mutual funds beat the S&P 500 index.

With Cramer's record, he should have a chimp on the show to make his predictions.

Cramer seems to use his public persona to get people to do the things he needs for his investments.

“i believe he is now in the “put on a show”...

You nailed it right there, it’s entertainment with a few tips here and there that aren’t any surprise. He does make a few good macro points, and even specific points. Hey, everybody’s got to make a living.

“Ever since he screwed up and advocated Washington Mutual I stopped listening to that turd.”

You would be hard pressed to find anyone with 20-40 years in the investment business that hasn’t had some big misses. I think he’s a better than average investor and found a way to make money, good for him.

Jim Cramer didn’t even get the Stark Industries call correct.
