I talked to a ORCL's staff this afternoon. Since ORCL is in quite period, he couldn't say any thing directly, but here're a few comments: "Yes, there're some changes, but moral @orcl is very high ...", "Staffs are working hard as usual..." You can draw your own conclusion. (I asked him more ?s, but I don't think I should post them here.) FYI, he is not from IR department. later, InSook Prasad

How come that hack Cramer gets so much coverage? Everyone knows he's a shill for MSFT.

Are there any other explanations or concerns for the stock's listless behavior? I'm currently up 59% in the three short months I've owned this stock and have high hopes for future performance. There was a time, a long long time ago, when folks would have been overjoyed to get that kind of performance in three years, never mind three months. I guess though, that taken in the context of the new cyber-internet-time, the last two months have been rather "listless", but I am not concerned. "I am not a big fan of oracle and in fact I agree with my, partner, Jeff Berkowitz, when he said this weekend on TSC/Fox show that ORCL is way too inconsistent to bet on." Jim Cramer One should consider that Jim Cramer exists purely for entertainment value. He's paid to have opinions. Unfortunately his own performance as a manager makes it difficult for him to criticize others. He runs a hedge fund that underperforms the market. I wonder how many of his customers aren't big fans anymore. He might also want to take a look at the "inconsistent" performance of his other company, TheStreet.com. $70 1/8 to $19. I wonder how many of his stockholders aren't big fans anymore. I certainly wouldn't want "bet on" anything Cramer manages, but, he is a fun guy. Cheers - RC

24/6/1999 James J. Cramer is manager of a hedge fund and co-founder of TheStreet.com. At time of publication, his fund was long Cisco, Microsoft, Oracle, Sun Microsystems and Yahoo!, and short Intel. 2 Months later "I am not a big fan of oracle and in fact I agree with my, partner, Jeff Berkowitz, when he said this weekend on TSC/Fox show that ORCL is way too inconsistent to bet on." Huhhh?????????????????????? Paul
