Best quote on this whole issue from Tom:
"A forum to dump trash was Dan Dorfman's daily tout. If they stop allowing guests to talk about small caps, there is virtually no point in allowing any discussions about individual stocks. None of these guys are going to shed new light into the story of GE or MSFT."
Jopawa, if analysts have to worry about what they talk about, why even bother talking about individual stocks at all? Cramer is dead wrong on this issue. Hand me a box of Kleenex over poor "sophisticated investor" Bonnie. Sophisticated my a$$. So Cramer is dumb enough to call someone who dives in with a market order on a stock he/she knows ZERO about, simply because some guy on CNBC said he owned it. Since when did the bar used to measure a "sophisticated investor" been lifted to allow any moron with an online account who happens to tune into CNBC for five minutes?
I used to really like Cramer, but he has lost it lately. Really LOST IT. A year later, he is still stewing over his CNBC deal where he got his tit in a ringer over (admittedly unknowingly) drilling that sham internet company. So naturally, if he can't be on CNBC, no one else should be either. Memo to Jim C.: you're an incredibly intelligent guy. Don't confuse the facts with the fluff. The bottom line is this: the ONLY way goofballs like "Bonnie" will learn to do their due diligence BEFORE jumping is to catch a proverbial stock market "baseball bat in the mouth." Jim C., since when has tuition at "Wall Street U." ever been cheap? Once again, here's an investor ("Bonnie") who blames anyone and everyone else but themselves for their own misgivings. Memo to "Bonnie": instead of crying foul to Cramer and anyone else who will listen, try and LEARN something from your foolish mistake and quit pointing fingers.
Since when is the market supposed to cater to little boys in short pants? Take your losses like a big boy (or in this case, girl) and learn something. |
