    FNM and FRE bailout bullish or bearish

    IMO Monday's market is gonna be the takeover. Ike will be Tuesday-Wednesdays market news. Looking at the storm track on Ike, it could turn down and head towards the Texas-Mexico border thus avoiding the oil rigs.

    For anyone that defends Cramer.....

    Cramer made the bulk of his money in the Nasdaq stock bubble when you could throw a dart and make money. From what I have read in Cramers own book his wife is the real Trader, she has cajone's and saved Cramers ass several times. Cramer is waaay too emotional to be a good trader.
