Cramer's meltdown

**fabijo** · 08-07-2007, 11:19 PM

I've been seeing you people post about Jim Cramer's attack the other day, but just now saw the video. Man, he really looks like he's about to break down into tears. I'm surprised there were no curses coming out of his mouth! Here's the vid:

oops. I just found Tom's post linking to the video. I hadn't been able to find a post with the link. My bad.

Now were waiting on "Cramer's Armaggedon Part 2: Cry Harder" - to see how he reacts to the latest FOMC statement

Did anyone see the guy on CNBC Tuesday around 12:30pm ET? The guy was calling people who got ARMs and Balloon mortgages stupid and greedy people who got what they deserved.

While I think that went too far the other way, I agree with his premise. It's not the Fed's responsibility to bail out companies and people who make bad financial choices.

The Hindenburg Omen has been replaced with the Cramer Armageddon Omen! LOL

What makes him think the Fed will react quickly to anything but a bomb going off under their chairs.

Well Jim is reving up for anorther rant and just like Die hard vs Die Harder, it looks like Cry Harder is going to be a little more intelligent and a lot less action.

PS - He trying to talk the market into another sell-off so he can justify Friday's rant

Isn't Jim friends with the CEO of CFC? If I recall, he was pushing CFC very hard. The lemmings that bought CFC because of him are going to get spanked.

I'm studying "Cramers Rule" in my College Algebra class this week.

System of equations.
2x + 1y + 1z = 3
1x – 1y – 1z = 0
1x + 2y + 1z = 0
Coefficient matrix's determinant.
D=
[ 2 1 1 3 ]
[ 1-1-1 0 ]
[ 1 2 1 0 ]
Coefficient determinant with answer-column values in x-column.
Dx=
[ 3 1 1 ]
[ 0-1-1 ]
[ 0 2 1 ]

Cramer's Rule says:
x = Dx ÷ D
y = Dy ÷ D
z = Dz ÷ D.

Now I see why he nearly broke down into tears.

Cramer: Federal Housing Enterprise Official Is Up to No Good
Jim Cramer says George Bush buddy, James Lockhart, won't help homeowners.

Link above is a video clip with Cramer concerning Lockhart and Fannie Mae concerns. He didn't quite lose it, as in his recent rant on Bernake, but came close.

Most Hated Man in the U.S., or Savior of Homes

Should the most hated man in American be a faceless bureaucrat by the name of James Lockhart? You don't know him. Nobody outside the Beltway does. But he is at the heart of the chokehold on America's mortgage markets. When the book is written, Director of the Office of Federal Housing Enterprise Oversight (OFHEO) Jim Lockhart might be the man who is responsible for making more unforgotten men forgotten (and here I refer to the title of the excellent book,The Forgotten Man: A New History of the Great Depression) than anyone since Herbert Hoover.
