Oh dear ... being a stockpicker is not easy and Jim Cramer, CNBC's top
stock picker, backed Bear Stearns big time on his show last Tuesday, March 11th. In fact, as can be seen at Jim Cramer's Mad Money website, he thought Bear Stearns was a BUY this time last week.
Oh
dear ... with Bear Stearns tanking from $60 a share down to $2 four
days later, Jim called a bad'un and, in this age of user generated
content where everyone can post comments on YouTube, they're all saying
Jim Cramer should be sacked.
Oh
dear ... in this age of user generated content, where half the media
comprises blogs and videos created by everyone so that everyone can
have their say, here's the most eloquent villification of Jim Cramer,
Banks and America's media from Don Harrold.
It's worth the ten minutes but, more importantly, read the 600 comments after only 3 days!
