Cramer Effect

i have seen some posts about the "mad money" show. anyone watch it? does anyone know how the stocks he talks about are affected? anyone think it would be good to buy some of his stocks and sell quickly(assuming that people buy what he talks about)? may be able to pick up a few percentage points a day!

Jim Cramer is the Brandon Lang of investing. You're better off ignoring him or fading.

There are a couple of sites that track his progress. Just google them and take if for what it is worth.

watch his show, and notice what happens to the stocks he recommends during after hours trading, pretty impressive stuff

BTW, his stock of the year last year was ATI, $30.00 in Jan 06, $100.00 in Feb 07, we sold it at $46

This year:

Level 3 Communications (LVLT)
: #1 Stock of 2007

Rite Aid (RAD): #2 Stock of 2007

Savient Pharmaceuticals (SVNT): #3 Stock of 2007

Way back in the day, he ran a hedge fund... lost a ton of money for everyone, so he got into the advice business instead.

Cramer is a smart guy but he recommends so many stocks that I would imagine that he's essentially even depending on what time frame you track...meaning do you make $ the 1 day after he talks about it or 1 month or 1 yr? Its too hard to track. I take him with a grain of salt...I mean get an idea or opinion from him and then research it yourself and see if it makes sense dont just take someones word for it and go drop your $ into it blindly.

Just my 2 cents...
