Blunt but honest Jim Cramer

Jim Cramer seems to expressing some of the traits of someone who is Bipolar. From one extreme to another. Since his infamous outburst last year to his quick recanting of events, his views and expressions swing violently from one end to the other. I still have video of Jim Cramer advising people to NOT pull out of BEAR STEARNS a few days before the collapse. But then again he has stated last year the impending financial crisis, despite his personal views of the Federal Reserve Chairman, he does (at times) appear to express genuine sentiment towards the American people. Although blunt and at times a bit disheartening, it is sometimes better to receive the bitter and salty reality instead of the sugar-coated absurdity that is regurgitated on television. I know that perhaps in the following days Jim may advise people to continue investing in various failed institutions, as with anything, it would be prudent of an individual to research all alleged facts. To each his own I suppose.

He doesn't know what he is talking about. The guy should be out working a minimum wage job. He doesn't deserve anything and simply won the lottery.  Why do people listen to him?

He is an entertainer and nothing more. Like most of the financial news who act like they know something and treat Wall Street like a game of sports. They give a play by play and use jock talk. Most of them are dangerous idiots, don't listen to them. They should be moved to the sports casts or off the networks.

I agree, for the most part I do not listen to him, purely for comical/entertainment/archival­ purposes only. I read too much for his words to bear any weight. Perhaps it's his mood swings that entertain me- I am not sure, but for the most part I agree with your analysis of virtually all economical pundits. Which is why I included a disclaimer/warning in the informational header of the video, so that each person would conduct their own research.

I think it's really his emotional state. If he's really this good of an actor, he should be in movies.

I dont think that suspecting Jim Cramer of being bipolar suits the case.

This guy is a show man able to dress his speech with the correct voice tune, body language and so on...

He was euphorical when he wanted to sell his bullish market and he is depressed, self contained when he talked about a bearish market.

His attitudes, motions, words... match the needs of his speeches.

On the contrary, I think that everything is engineered in this guy, his emotions, expressions... are all fabricated.

"They should be moved to the sports casts "

I was rather supportive of your comment until I read that line: djeeeeee, sports are way too serious to be spoiled with this kind of mouths...
