    Can any of you finance experts comment on Jim Cramer's competence at recommending stocks? I realize he has had some controversy in his past, but is he worth listening to? He apparently has to wait 5 days before acting on recommendations he gives on his show I believe, and on his website is a disclaimer about his Disney and Mastercard charitable trust(s).

    He's ordinary. But so is everyone. I know of no one who is worth listening to. Everyone has an opinion. Eventually, everyone is right and everyone is wrong. Read the research for the the coming year. All over the map, from double-digit returns to modest returns, to the next market disaster. When you make your living hearing yourself talk, that's what you do--you talk.

    OTOH, didn't Cramer claim to be a card counter? Should we invite him to a chat?

    Never heard that. Maybe we should send him copies of our books!
