The support for you is great, however silent. It took todays article in TSC about this thread to bring me here. "tell a person which stock to buy and you feed them for a day... Teach them how the game works and you feed them forever...." Buck Subscriber

Making money is what we are all here for. The time that is wasted refuting messages from pathetic posters should be spent informing your readers about the markets. Readers need to make their own decisions, if I adhered to my analysts recommendations I would be underperforming miserably, so we can't blame Cramer for getting out at the bottom. We should use this thread to communicate with JJC constructively, like "How about the big MO now?"

Hi James - I guess it comes with the territory. At least you have the guts to let people know where you stand with a particular position at a given point of time. I certainly don't take your comments as any recommendation to buy or sell - after all - you're not a broker. And on the cover of Money Magazine in October 1998 (along with Peter Lynch, Abby Cohen, Prince Alwaleed Bin Talen, Michael Price) - you were referred to as "THE TRADER". To me - TRADING infers that your position may change depending on the circumstances at the time. Whether one is long term or short term oriented - I venture to guess that it is difficult for one to predict with any certainty the direction that the overall market or a particular stock will take. I enjoy the thestreet.com A LOT but when it comes to buying or selling a stock - I do my own due diligence. James (and the other writers at thestreet.com), keep writing those great articles ! And no - I won't blame you if the stock market turns against me. :~):~) Regards, Phil

Hi James - although I respect and admire you greatly - I do feel that you owe Mr. Mark an apology. My take on Mr. Mark's comment to you was that he was trying to insert a subtle piece of humor (i.e. recommending that you watch a movie to alleviate the stress of the recent market) which was a follow-up to the following comment from you. Message 6843608 I think it's time for all of us to be cordial and respectful to each other again. Regards, Phil

A couple of comments directed to Mr. Cramer since he obvious monitors this thread: (1) Your recent reluctance to talk on the air about your Longs has the appearance of cowardice, a trait you have so far seemed to be admiringly lacking. Every suit on CNBC with the charge of OPM speaks opening and glowingly of their Longs. We, the audience, can decide for ourselves if their bias overshadows their reason. Your normally bright and evocative comments on stocks are missed. Please reconsider. (2) Your take on getting "the government" to stop mutual funds from intraday execution of customer orders, i.e. the last thirty minutes of idiocy series of articles, is to put it bluntly, Wrong! Rightly or wrongly, it is the individuals, like myself and the other participants in this wonderful bastion of capitalism, who are deciding that they want to take a flyer in the last hour of trading. Maybe we see something that we think is exploitable. Maybe we're simply idiots. Maybe both. Whatever our motivation, it is our choice and now you want the onerous SEC to stop it for "our own good." No thanks. I don't need a collection of bureaucrats, liars and thieves to tell me what I should or shouldn't be doing in my accounts. The market does a pretty good job of that. I hope you take these comments in the constructive vein in which they were made. You still are the only guest host I turn the sound up on, which is the ultimate compliment, considering where you went to law school. A Suffolk Law '76
