Perhaps Fox used his touting of The Street.com as an excuse to do what they wanted to do anyway. However, by coincidence I happened to watch that show, one of only 2 or 3 times I have ever seen it. The guests were running through their usual list of picks, and when they got to Cramer he included The Street.com as being undervalued, having a lot of cash, etc. You could see the other guests cringe and become very uncomfortable. One of the guests commented afterwards that it was not appropriate. Whether front-running any of Cramer's picks works is something I doubt, since he is usually wrong. At least for the last year or so that has been the case. I do agree that the houses can get away with all sorts of things that smaller investors would be fried for.
