Cramer: Trading Goddess says GET OUT! I'm getting out. Wrong! Dispatches from the Front: The Trading Goddess Says: Get Out By James J. Cramer 10/8/98 12:32 PM ET Bonds getting killed. Dollar getting killed. Market getting killed. Hedge funds leveraged to their eyeballs and still betting. Horrible week. Never seen worse ... Am I describing the screen in front of me? No, I am describing the week before the crash in 1987, when I saw all the same crazy things. I have not invoked '87 in any of my writings before because I have always felt that '87 was an aberration. I sold into the week before the crash, at the urging of my wife, who said she did not see enough capitulation from the mutual funds. She did not see bid-wanted situations. Same thing now. Same wife saying get out. Same ugliness like you would not believe. And it was before the crash. Same feeling; same pit-of-my-stomach feeling. James J.

This very letter was posted at noon on Oct 8 almost to the minute that DELL briefly touched 40 - as you all know it was almost 60 two day later. Boy, Cramer really blew this one.
