| The one year when he shot 41% was the year he came back from playing baseball and the other year he was around 40 years old. |

It's close, but if Cramer would muss up his hair and wear one of those red clown's noses I'd have to give him da vote over who is cuter  |

That is a complete insult to Jordan. It is also an insult to Warren Buffett, Peter Lynch, John Bogle, Julian Robertson, Michael Steinhardt, George Soros, and John Templeton. |
Jim Cramer isn't the best of anything... he is just a loudmouth with a pedestal to shout his opinions from. Maybe Cramer is a great trader, but from what you can apparently find in his book, I question that. I would say Cramer is the Lebron James of the stock market, marketers love him and he excites people, but I don't think what counts is there yet. Lets see him be a truly great manager (like Lynch) or excel for decades (like Buffett). I for one am not ready to anoint him. |

I just recently started seeing his shows and thats pretty much how I ended up in this forum......I don't have much to trade with but I don't want to loose it too quickly either.....Should I just disregard Cramer and just see as entertainment? If not, then how can I dismiss the menucia and find the real investment possibilities mentioned in his shows? |

His show is for entertainment purposes only. He makes you think if you really want to play an investment that he mentions you have to do a little research and then buy after all the quick trades have been made from him mentioning it on his show.
Hey I bought UARM after he mentioned it A couple days after and rode it up for a 38% gain
I rode eslr up for 14% and its still climbing.
I rode up cmi for a good 10 to 12%
His picks arent bad just dont buy on a market order the following business day or you will get the big phillips head screw. |

| I think he is turning many people to the markets that never would have even thought to invest before. This is a good thing, the more people in, the higher value for all stocks. |
