    • 'Buy, But Sell' - What Are Analysts Thinking? [view article]
      He could have just said that, for those of us who are still learning. Aug 25 05:32 PM
    • Coke vs. Pepsi - Cramer's Mad Money (8/19/08) [view article]
      You may give Pepsi higher points, but I'll stick with Coke. Aug 21 12:26 PM
    • Five Struggling Dividend Stocks I'm Still Bullish On [view article]
      I'm with notsosmart, FRO is a winner. Even if the supply of oil/nat gas is decreasing, it isn't going to deplete itself overnight and we still don't have a better way to get it here. As long as Nancy Pelosi plays her games, I will stick with FRO. After all, if oil and the transportation of it from "there to here" is her game plan, I might as well make money off it. Go, Nancy.

    • Fannie and Freddie Shareholders Run for the Exit [view article]
      Just a thought... if analysts hadn't said that investors would lose everything they had in FNM and FRE, would those investors have sold the stock? I think perhaps the drop - if there would have been one - would have been much less dramatic. The analysts wanted those two stocks to drop, and therefore used scare tactics. It worked. And why not? After all, isn't their goal to have the government come in and bail us out again? If we don't get off this government bailout addiction, how will we ever be able to get out of the rut?

    • The Price of Oil - Cramer's Mad Money (8/18/08) [view article]
      I could be really wrong, and I'll feel the pain if I am, but it will take years for us to come up with a good replacement for oil, and with the prices falling, it sure seems like a great time to buy. Whether it's shipping or the oil/gas itself, we haven't stopped needing it, and since Nancy Pelosi is sitting around with her thumb up her..., we're going to still need it. I've been wrong before, and may be wrong now, but I think we still have time. Aug 19 09:09 AM
    • Second Mortgages: Why Absolve Consumers for Stupidity? [view article]
      Some of us realize that none of it is free, and therefore don't bite. And there are those who know going in that they can't make the payments and hope they'll make a profit, but if they can't, no biggie... the government will bail them out and they can always blame someone else. Both sides should be prosecuted. Aug 16 11:41 AM
    • The Market's View on Oil [view article]
      Oil is not going to $60. Think, people... what season are we coming up on? People in Florida, Texas and California may have summer all year, but the majority of us have winter. We need heat. We drive all year, and we need snow plows (therefore more fuel used). Oil may be going down now, but soon...

      Besides, there are two different views: Supply/Demand says the supply is exhausted soon, and demand needs to follow (oil prices go up) or Infinite Oil (which means there's plenty of time for you to get in). And if you really think it's the speculators, and that oil is about to tank completely, then you might want to examine your IRA to see just what your advisors have invested in... you will be surprised.

    • Beaten Down Buy - Cramer's Lightning Round (8/14/08) [view article]
      Cramer doesn't cause anything. The only one who causes the loss or gain is the one who does the actual buying or selling. The shareholder. Take responsibility for your own actions! Aug 16 11:26 AM
    • Forget $100 a Barrel - Oil Will Plummet to $30 [view article]
      Gasoline was 30 cents/gallon when I started driving, and it has never gone lower since then. The same is true for anything else we buy. My first NEW car was $2000. Never again will cars be that cheap. We used to talk about heating costs in cents per hour, now it's in dollars per year, and if you look at the "cents per hour" level, that has gone up a lot. Even if oil went below $100, or even $75, they won't lower the costs of gasoline, or natural gas, or any other energy-related item any more than they would anything else. They already know we will pay those prices and it's true. If we WILL pay those prices now, we will pay them later. Nothing ever gets cheaper. Not at the consumer level. Aug 15 11:59 AM

    • Negative Trend for Oil Exploration and Production Stocks [view article]
      Oil won't go back to $50 or $70 or even $90/barrel anymore than bread has gone back below $1/loaf. Aug 14 09:25 AM
    • CANROYs Remain Attractive as Oil-Related Investments [view article]
      I also have these three stocks, and have been adding to them as the price goes down. They provided a terrific cushion when my financial stocks went haywire, allowing me to do better than break even. I understand that the Canroys are all making provisions for 2011, and don't expect things (for investors) to change much, but I figure another couple years will be okay anyway. Aug 14 09:13 AM

      I also agree, and am glad I'm not alone in this belief. Aug 11 08:22 AM
    • Oil Demand Should Continue to Fall [view article]
      With just the thought of a lower price of oil being "much lower", I can see the SUV owners simply parking their vehicles in the garage for a bit, and getting them back on the road if the price of fuel really does go lower. Result: progress lost. We need to work on newer and better fuels, as well as low-cost processes for converting vehicles currently on the road to make use of those fuels. Otherwise, we will be replacing greenhouse gases with huge SUV graveyards, thus using more energy to get rid of them than we create. Aug 10 08:39 AM
