Proof Of Cramer Manipulation

[blast19]

Quote from IcarusByNight:

It looks like Cramer is trying to manage the damage. He was on The Big Idea last night, appearing to put a human face on his otherwise bizarre personae. It turns out he claims to have been some half-breed tough guy/nerd who had been tapped as an idiot at a very young age. Then there was another time in his life when he was sleeping in his car for nine months, his stash, a gun, his boy scout ax, and a can of talcum powder for his general hygiene. It was difficult to decipher the underlying message. Was it an attempt to cull sympathy, or was he outing himself as an idiot?

You decide.

I thought his he'd be found dead somewhere after he was on Colbert Report because he had that frightened animal look in his eyes that made me think the mafia or Ted Turner had threatened his life.

He's a farking idiot and his tongue is more brown than dirt. The only reason he's still on is because the people that despise him HAVE to watch him and there's a bunch of 75 years olds who are reminded of Vaudeville when they watch.

Hopefully those who watch will tire of his shilliness and oust him from the halls of CNBC.

That's old news. He has some powerful lawyers on the payroll, so all I'll say is, Imus always asks him if he's still sleeping on the couch.

Someone do some research on Michael Steinhart. You 'll be very interested in his lineage. He employed Fishbach and Cramer simultaneously, which reminds me of a special I saw on Geographic where Tazmanian Devils mated.

He used to be a successful hedge fund manager.... what more prooof do you neeed?

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.

Some of you might give some thought to why you are spending part of your life writing angry invective about some guy who is on TV ?

Isn't your time better spent either doing research for trading, or else watching some sports or porn ?

It's not like we have infinite time...

there are people who volunteer for Combat duty for whatever reason. There are those who see Cramer as a threat to the system, and choose to fight the fight.

Again, many people on ET "demand". They say "prove it". You have to have some common sense to see a dolt like Cramer didn't get those returns because he did better research, or he was smarter than you are. Same with these other guys.

Right now, I've got a money manager who can't believe the millions of shares of xyz he has can't move. After all, he was dead right on the fundamentals. He wants to argue. He tells me "Patrick Byrne is going about this all wrong. He's too "in your face." Ok, asshole, then you make your stock go up.

We have to move the system to one where talent is rewarded, not ruthlessness.

Hey, that's pretty good. Remember it.

Now, go back to your porn. But be thankful there are people who will defend your interests, even if you don't know what they are, and how they are violated.

In general I am grateful for their intentions.

But history shows that people are not intelligent enough to know their own interests, let alone those of others.

But that's a digression.

My main point is that comments like:

He's a farking idiot

and

Pity his wife.

do nothing to defend anyone's interests. But they take time to type, so they are even negative for the person typing them.

(Although the people who run the "Darwin awards" site might say that if they weren't typing, they would probably be run over by a bus instead.)

Since it is off topic, it wanted to address the following separately:

We have to move the system to one where talent is rewarded, not ruthlessness.

What system ? There is no system.
There are only 6 billion human beings interacting.

Over the last 2 million years, ruthlessness has been "rewarded" by surviving and passing on your genes. Talent has also been "rewarded" in the same way.

The economy works best if there is stability, which is provided by rules and enforcement. But human beings are inherently self interested, and so the power of large sums of money often is able to bend the rules. Not surprising, and just part of reality, and always wil be. I don't approve, but - surprise - they don't ask me before doing it.
