components downside education entertainment forward longer market people recognize stock successful surprised three wall
This is a show that is about education, entertainment and making money. And I think that people should recognize that you need all three components going forward if you're going to be successful because the stock market is no longer the way it was. It's not a 'build it and they will come' situation. There are many people who think that it is and I think that they will be continually surprised to the downside with that view, as we say on Wall Street.
stock
I got a subpoena because I said that a stock was going lower.
american-businessman build country easy hard homes mean people saving stocks
I mean homes are very easy to build and buy. But I think that the idea of saving for stocks is a hard thing that people in this country have embraced.

I'm not just here to tell you about stocks. I'm here to teach you to think like Cramer!
chase gained low stock
I wouldn't chase this stock in the low teens, as it has already gained more than 150% on the year.

I had unbelievable credibility as a hedge fund manager (at Cramer Berkowitz), but who cares? If I'm obstreperous, funny, I'm bringing people in, not turning them off. My industry has been operating through mystification and confusion. Fie on us. I'm having a darn good time,
hard-work tree wish
I wish it grew on trees, but it takes hard work to make money.
mean giving credit
I mean that what makes me a professional, but the market itself has been fabulous during this whole period and I've got to give the market credit before I give myself credit.
world unexpected investors
A good investor in this new world knows to always expect the unexpected.
fire momentum playing-with-fire
But be very, very careful, because when you're playing with momentum, you're playing with fire.
years needs may
Whatever money you may need for the next five years, please take it out of the stock market right now, this week.
strong mean tape
I mean I'm not smarter than the market, but I can recognize a good tape and a bad tape. I recognize when it's right and when it's wrong and that's what my strength is.
jobs thinking losing
I've lost tremendous amounts of money in various markets and I think that that's something that makes you better at my job, not worse.
blessed able economy
I have never for a minute felt in was my stock picking abilities. I feel that my stock picking abilities aided- I was able to pick out which are the good stocks in the good market, but I have been blessed with a great market.
