Quote from Longhorns:
On his "Stop Trading" segment today, Cramer was giddy and screaming that the bottom was in (again) and he loved the financials (again).

In Cramer's view, the export economy is "red hot." He said he was "raising numbers on all financials."
"All is forgiven," Cramer said of his previous animosity toward the Federal Reserve. "Financials should be bought."

XLF was trading above 29 when the segment aired. Within minutes, Gasparino reported iminent downgrades of ABK and MBI and soon after that, Fitch downgraded FGIC. Then, after the market closed, S&P came out with huge loss projections from CDO's.
Last print on XLF was 27.66. If you bought on Cramers recommendation, you would be down roughly 5% in a matter of hours.
Another great call SkeeeDaddy.
P.S.-- Watch, tomorrow he will be yelling about how much he hates the financials and how he's been negative on them for months.

XLF down almost 7% since Cramer called yet another "bottom" in financials.
