Dinner with Jim
#1
So the girls are out for a yankee swap dinner at work.  So what the heck, I'll eat my burger with Jim in "Cra-merica".

Tonight was a very depressing episode following todays plunge of 392 points.  About 35 minutes into the show I just about choked on my salad as Jim said to a caller, "I'm going for yield.  It worked for me in 2008 and it will work now..."

Gee, Jim.....yield from dividend paying stocks....what a concept ...   Big Grin

So DGI'ers....carry on!

Booooyah!

With that kind of advice from Cramer, I had to think twice whether I should sell everything. Of course, he's probably recommending mREITs, energy MLPs and lesser-known BDCs. Eeeek!

I actually had "Maybe I need to sell all my DG stocks ASAP..." and erased it.   Funny how you can react to Jimbo....

I always have the same reaction when Cramer talks about a company. Didnt someone build a portfolio and trade in and out of stocks as called by Cramer and found that something like 3/4 of the time he picked losers?

That's awesome. Thanks! I wish they would keep it updated over time.
