Cramer Does It Again: 4 "Irresistible" Stocks
Just 7 short weeks ago, no lesser guru of gains than CNBC's Jim Cramer proclaimed for all retail-stock-investing moms-and-pops that "through the end of the year, I am pegging Twitter, GoPro, Tesla and Netflix as the four stocks that investors will find irresistible." Things are not going well...
Via CNBC from September 2nd 2014,
Given circumstances, Cramer sees money rotating out of multinationals, especially those with significant European exposure. Therefore, he's skeptical of big industrial giants as well as many global technology companies.
Cramer believes companies with little to no exposure to the crisis in Ukraine, or the resulting ripple in Europe, are most likely to attract investment.
"Therefore, through the end of the year, I am pegging Twitter, GoPro, Tesla and Netflix as the four stocks that investors will find irresistible," Cramer said.
Not only are they relatively isolated from overseas woes, but Cramer says they each have specific catalysts that should drive gains.
"Twitter's turned the corner ever since CFO Anthony Noto got there to add discipline and ways to make money. GoPro's got an eco-system with the hottest product for the holiday season and we always jump that gun in September. Tesla's just a really well-run company, and unlike the other car companies I follow, it is almost all domestic. And, As more movies are added to streaming and more productions come on line I can see Netflix powering higher."

And then this happened... TWTR -17%, TSLA -18%, NFLX -21%, GPRO +20% (but collapsed from +70%)
* * *
Of course Mr.Cramer was not alone in this call...

Dont touch that dial!
All five CNBS viewers are becoming skeptical.
Old penis head will fog horn you for that;)
If he knew what he were doing, he wouldn't be on TV.
So ... does that imply there the real money maker is doing the opposite? Anyone ever do a contrarian-Cramer index that buys when he sells and sells when he buys?
Curious what that looks like ...

Anyone ever see "Killer Clowns for Outer Space"... Fits Cramer to a T...

so the low hanging fruit was left for me...........booooooooyaaaaaa!!!!!!
Here's the video of the "Killer Klowns" theme song by The Dickies.
It's appropriate viewing when discussing Kramer.

If Stewart could talk, what would he say?
One of Cramer's finer moments...

Many a PHD have been minted on the "Cramer effect", also known as the Newsweek curse and formerly known as the WSJ widowmaker and/or Barons Bust. In short: When your story needs to be sold on national television, you are 1 step away from a Home Shopping network infomercial, and that means your idea if it had any proprietary value in it's core strategy is pretty much "open source" now.
Net/net? If you fade the Cramer calls and get your timing right (2-weeks is the statistical mean), you make about 5% on a call if you pull the Media report and overlay them for the period 1945-2006. For the love of god do not use this as a stock tip to go fade everything on 2-week bear-spreads.
Some products, like retail products are designed for mass adoptions and need that consumer education, but stock valuations are not one of them.
Cramer would be a great show, if he just pulled out the CFA textbook and went through 1-page a day, and did valuation math but on real-companies, for "homegamers". Sadly, that makes PBS level TV. So going buy/sell on charts is all the show runs at/and for. If cramer says something, it's good practice to recheck all the models/assumptions because the 2-day vol. will uptick badly.
I honestly want to know, does Bill Ackman pay CNBC to show up and follow him around? He's like the Taylor Swift of institutional investing. How does he do any work at PSQ if he spends about 3 hours a day doing PR?
Cramer is competing with Gartman and it's a tough race to the bottom....

Out of curiosity, how much would be made/lost if you sell his recommendations against buying same dollar value on the S&P, putting the trade on at worse of close that day or open next day?

Good comparison to being close to a shop at home network. Hadn't thought of that. Spot on.
Remember the "knife collector show"?

Wish Cramer would do this on air:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C7FBrmpaMAU
Oh "they" know what they are having him do and that's all that matters.
"If he knew what he were doing, he wouldn't be on TV." Exactly and the sheeple still listen to this obnoxious son of abraham who continually regurgitates the party line. Keep the sheep buying this crap while those in the know cashed out long ago and reallocated their cash into hard assets. He is a shylock salesman at best.
30 second clip on Why you should not listen to Cramer.

Hes easily the most fugliest cheerleader for the Almighty Ponzi...just say'n
They don't call it the Boob Tube for nothing...
Cramer seems to be the chief financial boob for the last how many years and he's still there in spite of these continued collapses in his predictions.
Whomever is shaping this segment of the collapse seems to be letting Cramer spout the most beneficial financial advice.
We just need to determine who the beneficiary is to all this mumbo jumbo.
DaddyO
My gramama used to call it the "idiot box." Idoits on TV creating more idiots. Then again, she watched CNN Headline News very regularly and was always scaread of something.
Who's Jim Cramer? Is he on television?
Cramer = retarded pile of dung. Other than that, he's great!
Just do the opposite of what he says and you'll be fine
Cramer tried to Gartman us all.
Cramer lives? Who knew?
GS tool, muppets run!
Cramer trying to become the new muppet slayer...?
Fine, make note and move him up in the guillotine line....
so many heads to take, so little time to take them,
If only all CNBC had one neck . . .
It does. It's just a well protected neck called a "state charter."
Fine, make note and move him up in the guillotine line....
NO, make him the last one but make him sit right in front of the guillotine to get the explicit view with his famous button set.
Woud love to see him soiling himself.
Of course they are irresistable, the bait usually is.
"There's always free cheese in the mousetrap", don'tcha know?
Those muppets get creamed on by Cramer....
CNBC's comedy hour is not for investment advise.
It's always been like this and the returds still look at him like a guru. Kind of like the Obamabots look at Zero, no reality can sway them from their loyalty to these turds.
during his show cnbc should run a continuous crawl at bottom of screen that he's a GS alumnus
They all should be forced to wear a scarlet letter.
There's no such thing as Goldman alumni.
I love how Cramer's entire investment thesis boils down to a ponzi scheme. Is he buying companies you would actually want to own if you could take them private? Absolutely not. He's only buying companies that can be flipped to someone else.
Reason..Cramer's a MSMIT...
Muppet Slayer Master In Training
His licensing exam is coming up!
Snapchat is the future.
The stupid, overvalued, stupid future.
Euthanize Cramer
You mean to just pull the plug on the body right, because a compelling argument could be made that his brain has already ceased to function.
Cramer's Top Stocks: Cram em up your ass Edition.
Well a hush fell over the NYSE Floor
Jimmy Cramer come boppin' in off the street
And when the cuttin' were done
The only part that wasn't bloody
Was the soles of the big man's feet
Yeah he were cut in in bout a hundred places
And he were shot in a couple more
And you better believe
They sung a different kind of story on CNBC
When big Jim hit the NYSE floor now they say
You don't tug on superman's cape
You don't spit into the wind
You don't pull the mask off that old lone ranger
And you don't mess around with Yellen…
Has anyone every tried to make a trading strategy based on shorting all of his stock picks? I'm actually curious, I think you could do pretty well.
IMHO; Well yeah, prudent1.
Cramer, was/is prudent.
yes, i have, his Casino Stock picks are a fade every time,
the other picks which work are to short every stock with a FEMALE CEO works very well, check it out.
Let's not forget his recent Ebola-eve recommendation to buy the cruise lines.
I know a tip sheet writer, he said the punters don't really care if what you tip loses them money, all they want is a good story. Cramer if you think about it offers a good story.
...and the sheep fall for it yet AGAIN! hilarious
I guess I'm missing the party.

So easy and simple.
Feel so stupid, actually working for my money.
Hey wait a minute. Is this the same guy who's roommate's mother is making $17,000 a week posting annoying links on ZH?
The Larry Flynt of wall street speaks again.
This has to be an episode of The Onion. All of those companies have serious structural business model issues which are not likely going to be overcome. He must have been paid a handsome sum to have done this.
Lehman Brothers and what are the other 3?
Cramer, before he went on air to announce "through the end of the year, I am pegging Twitter, GoPro, Tesla and Netflix as the four stocks that investors will find irresistible."
Had his unpaid interns algorithmic makers cover all bets with the appropriate short liquidity.
Getting sick of this Bloomberg Tesla plugging putting a famous name to shame.
Jim Cramer Explains How The Stock Market Is Manipulated https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a5_IGEgs2ucAh, Jim Cramer. The gift that keeps on giving. The Dan Dorfman of our times.
From his fabled Cramer/Berkowitz, where he was so hated he needed bodygaurds. His wife did all the trading, He was the scumbag that led bear raids with lies to drive stock prices down.
Then who can forget his Top Ten picks for the new millenium? Many sheeple lost their entire investments on that one.
Who can forget his epic Bear Stearns call, the week before they went under?
I cannot imagine anyone taking him serious. The man should be in prison but on CNBC lying is part of the job desription.
Don't get me started on that other ass clown LIEsman.
The 'mouth of/for Manhattan'. Even with all that insider goldie ahead of the curve in the know pink circle of jerks and worse still with a track record of mass destruction ONE has to ask ' why has this cunt not been suicided, hung, jailed or at least beaten to a pulp with a blunt instrument?
Answer : Goldie was on the right side of ALL of those trades above.
Of course Cramer is in the know and has access to the Tribal golden circles. And that's why his recommendations are so dangerous....he's deliberately rigging the market.
Whenever any jew gives me financial advice, I hold on to my wallet for dear life and immediately do the opposite of what was advised. The only thing financial planners do for you is effectively plan to take your money.
Dear Jim: Do you still think Lehman & Bear Sterns are screaming buys? Also another question; rumor has it you are meging with Gartman & Stolper. Is this true? -vegas

"Cramericans" need their own racial profile, hahaha
If you get duped by this snake-oil salesman.....

"through the end of the year, I am pegging Twitter, GoPro, Tesla and Netflix as the four stocks that investors will find irresistible."
"Pegging" is an interesting and most appropriate verb to use.

w00t w00t! Finally the right time to buy NFLX puts.
Want a peek into the criminal mind of Cramer? Of course HE never did this... or did he
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2r2e0ayIknQ
cramer from 2007 screaming on television. these guys screamed for money. SCREAMING GIVE ME THE MONEY!!!!.
THESE FIRMS SHOULD GO OUT OF BUSINESS. AND CRAMER SHOULD serve LIFE IN PRISON. AFTER BEING CONDEMNED IN A COURT OF LAW.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SWksEJQEYVU
Of course Cramer's a criminal but what about the fools who still listen to him despite being stiffed time and again over the years? There's such a thing as personal responsibility you know.
cramer reminds me of alan greenspan,,, after he was initiated into the cabal
