This drives me crazy. Anytime a stock is advertised by people like Jim Cramer, it starts to
rise. Aside from lightning round, when Jim Cramer specifically speaks of certain stocks in
detail, about 2-3 times per show, interesting things happen.
Regardless of whether it's for long run, or short, I have noticed that these stocks rise
+70% of the time the FOLLOWING day. This ussually lasts 1-2 days before it starts to decline
again.
Now here are my thoughts.
Assuming a person has enough capitol, he may purchase and trade stocks within the SAME
following day.
EXAMPLE:
Stock symbol "Wealth" is the big news on Mad Money.
A person Invests $10,000 in company "Wealth" the following day. The stock rises by 3% which
equals to a $300 profit.
Taking the above scenerio into perspective, if a person could invest in Jim's HIGHLIGHTED
stocks,(which again is only done 2-3 times per show), and picks out the most promising of
those stocks and invests accordingly, theoretically he shall overall profit.
NOTE:
Higher investments = higher gains.
Higher investments = higher POTENTIAL losses
Please post your thoughts |

I doubt a strategy like the one you described could be used to consistently take profits out of the market, BUT, if you manage to make money doing just that, more power to you.

 I've thought about the same plan also but murphy's law would probably kick in at that exact moment for me Check "Cramer is..." post  |

| interesting comments. However, if one uses his head he could always fight the odds by choosing his investments. Once i have enough capitol I shall try this experiment and post results in the short coming months. |

VERY well said my friend, VERY well said. The more sure you are of a theory, the more imminent your Waterloo. Watch the Pro's, they "Change Up" all the time. |

If your going to try that wich has been rolling around in my head for some time. You need to be watching his early show and getting in on the after hours trading! I think that would be a good plan if you could get in and out fast. If you notice by the next morning its opening prices are already inflated.
Actually can someone just post what Oprah's pushing theres a good investment for ya! |

YEP! That too could work. (Oprah)
Does Cramer talk about the same stocks on his radio earlier in the day as in the afternoon on tv? |

 I did a quick check and it appears he might mention a stock from the previous mad money but nothing that indicates we could get a jump on mad money before he broadcasts  Might be able to get a jump on him via Oprah show if she mentions a product but I think Cramer's on to this possibility? Only his staff and inner circle would be privy to inside info |
