Not fair to pick on Cramer in that way - actually, his calls have been pretty good the last several weeks - not perfect, but whose are? He's been playing a different game than most of us, much more fundamental than technical, and, when he says "bull market," he doesn't mean Nasdaq 5000. And he's been a lot less bullish on the techs (esp. fiber, opticals, and related) than on financials and blue chips and "boring stocks." I don't recall him pumping PMCS, and he's been warning consistently against investing in stocks of its type. I think for guys like that short-term is a few months, not a few minutes. So... sue me... I've actually come to like his stuff, even though it's at most only indirectly relevant to what I do. What I really don't like is the idea that too many people will start listening to people like him, and the Nasdaq will stop trading like a house afire.

I got caught in the IFMX debacle, but I held onto it...and now it looks to be breaking out. It is in extreme "overbought" conditions, but it's trending very strongly. I liked the action today so I held, still. I believe these guys got into an extremely oversold condition due to many problems which are being addressed. I think there is great growth potential. When will I learn not to listen to forward guidance from this company???

Cramer has been on a lot of conference calls in his career and when he says the PMCS call was one of the worst disasters that he can recall, that`s saying a lot.

I never understood how he could be a good trader being as emotional as he is but he seemed to do OK.
