Wrong! Dispatches from the Front: Cramer on the Luxury of Being Skeptical
By James J. Cramer

**************
Random musings: Oil, what can I say? I knew enough not to short the complex anymore and yet there I was arguing, convincingly, I think, to stay away from these stocks. Scrambled eggs all over my face? Yes, and not thrown by my youngest daughter either!! How do I feel about this? Miserable of course, even more miserable because I let down my partners who are paying for me to get this stuff right. I had covered my shorts but I was without catalyst to go long. Now there is a catalyst. I am still doing nothing because I believe that the OPEC nations are cheaters and because I don't believe you can rig markets. Witness Chevron, which picked everybody off at the opening above 90 and keeps going lower.

I think the open-higher-then-falter approach of the drillers, coupled with the strength in bonds and the utes, is telling me I am right to do nothing, and that the group is still in the grips of the bear. That said, a little pepper please, and maybe some salsa, to make it taste better.>>
