“In other periods of depression, it has always been possible to see some things which were solid and upon which you could base hope, but as I look about, I now see nothing to give ground to hope-nothing of man.” – Former President Calvin Coolidge, (1933)
H.H. Simmons, president of the New York Stock Exchange, Jan. 12, 1928: “I cannot help but raise a dissenting voice to statements that we are living in a fool’s paradise, and that prosperity in this country must necessarily diminish and recede in the near future.”
W. McNeel, market analyst, as quoted in the New York Herald Tribune, Oct. 30, 1929: “This is the time to buy stocks. This is the time to recall the words of the late J. P. Morgan… that any man who is bearish on America will go broke. Within a few days there is likely to be a bear panic rather than a bull panic. Many of the low prices as a result of this hysterical selling are not likely to be reached again in many years.”
Harvard Economic Society, Nov. 10, 1929: “… a serious depression seems improbable; [we expect] recovery of business next spring, with further improvement in the fall.”

Today's trading is so contrived, soon as the volume drops, PPT gets to work manipulating a "just because" rally
Read Tragedy and Hope, it goes into detail. Scary shit when you read it and look at the world today. Its repeating.
… they didn’t mention
“green shoots” once!
So, "Camera-on-a-Stick" is crashing???
Oh, man, I figured their growth rate was 'To Inifinity & Beyond'...
Cramer should change his name to Cram-it. Cramit down peoples' throats.
I used to trade all the time. I loved trading. It was great. A lot of fun and endlessly fascinating. But now I come to see that the entire financial community is completely corrupt and the financial system as it is should never have come to be . Derivatives need to be outlawed because they only become a tool by corrupt Greedy people who provide nothing to the real economy . They're smart people but their intelligence doesn't extend to ethics or a balanced value system. It's all got come down.
Cramer hosts a game show. Contestants phone in and get "advice" on which poker table to throw their money. There is no expert on modern day TV. It's all about entertainment and the casino is completely rigged.
A game show that needs a dunk tank.
and that dunk tank needs eye candy.
Being jewish has perks. For everyone else there's mastercard.
"We are not printing money".
"Gold is not money"
"Subprime is contained".
guess who?
"QE is one of those things that work in practice"
You know the saying... talk is cheap mother%$#$. Haha. And who said Cramer is even an expert? He massively failed a fund.
It will fluctuate right? hahaha.
He's self-proclaimed, just like 99% of the Wall St. experts......
"Hey, this is not Bikini Bottom, this is Rock Bottom-" Spongebob Squarepants
The police should shut down Harvard for teaching financial terrorism.
Jim Cramer is the Jesse Livermore of the fitbit set... except poorer and dumber.
Why was Calvin Coolidge such a Debby Downer?
Cramer = Gartman
'honey,pass me another magazine(ammo),and go open up another can of spam for me"~ RawPawg...Sept/Oct 2015
"subprime is contained" is my personal favorite
I like "when things get serious you MUST LIE", or "smells like a bottom".
lol you said smells like bottom
Coolidge was a great leader, spot on. When he suffered a depression in 1921 he got government out of the way lasted 18 months.
Jim Cramer.
Screaming like a baboon chained to a bumper of a garbage truck, this lunatic should have been sent off to the booby hatch decades ago.
A pin wheeling Bozo of the lowest order, I keep waiting to hear - then see - him have a massive heart attack and die on set as he pitches one last dog shit stock.
DIE DIE DIE!
Another great call by the MSM mouthpece.

Thanks - that was THE fucking classic of Cramer. Why anyone would watch this asshole for anything but entertainment value is beyond me.
ZH is entertainment enough for me, and sometimes I learn some really good shit about how the casino works.
Course I'm feeling good 'cause I made money on the turn today from down (sold the TZA high) to Up (sold the TNA too soon, but still made today's wages).
If you watched David Copperfield for seven years you would figure out how he does a fair amount of his magic,the same for central banks and markets,Cramer et al cater for those who cant think for themselves or wont and there are a lot of sheep out there there are about 10 standard stunts the manipulators pull 90 percent of the time and the market falls for them hundreds of times over,so whilst there is individual brilliance markets rely on the collective stupidity of man.
We buy high. We sell low. How we stay in business? We lucky.
This year,I put my nest egg into Cramer picks. In related news, I'm selling the pot that I pee in on ebay. Please bid. Please.
If you actually followed Cramer you would of surely lost a fortune while his friends laugh all the way to the bank with your money after dumping all their shit shares on you lol
They call him CRAM-ER because he CRAMS SHIT SHARES DOWN SHEEPLE THROATS.
I thought it was so strange that Cramer bought one of those "Contributor" paragraph ads at the top of Zerohedge, right next to William Bonzai, the other day. I was thinking "WTF? Surely Zerohedge has outsourced the orination of these ads."
"Experts" in only two things: Lies and concealing for Zion, their grifting banksters, and tyranny.
Zion is a scheme, not an ethnicity..
A trait of tyranny: Experts in lying and concealing are exalted. Experts in truth are murdered.
