    Proof Of Cramer Manipulation

    I really don't see a what the big deal is with the Cramer video. He was mostly trying to promote his Wallstreet Confidential program by ranting about the big bad secrets, that those fat cats on wall street don't want you to know about (SARCASM). Does some of what he described occur...

    Proof Of Cramer Manipulation

    Well I'm not sure if Cramer was the one doing the manipulating. The appearance by the CEO was timed pretty conveniently with a PIPE made to raise 15.5 million for BRLC. http://biz.yahoo.com/bw/070328/20070328005284.html?.v=1

    What did Cramer do to have the SEC restrict his trading???

    I've read before that his hedge fund was at 300 million, or that at one point the returns on it for a year, total, earned 300 million (with a 60% year, which I think was the best I've read about that would mean a fund 500 million in size), dont think he's worth 300 mill though.

    What did Cramer do to have the SEC restrict his trading???

    Despite what you may think of him as the personality on television, I'd recommend his book Confessions of a Street Addict, it's an entertaining read.

    Forbes $30-$35 Oil Price Prediction

    Very interesting article, thanks for the link! Wasn't aware the yields on algae were so much greater than normal crops. Any signs that any of those processes studied are anywhere near commercialization?

    Forbes $30-$35 Oil Price Prediction

    My understanding of bio-diesel was that on a large scale it just wouldn't work out. That is if you're using corn, since a major cost factor for the production of fertilizer and harvesting is oil itself, and that the whole process did not yield excess energy. It'd be like you giving me a barrel...
