Jim Cramer calls yet another bottom in housing
Presumably on the theory that if he makes enough calls, sooner or later one of them might be right, Jim Cramer just said we are at the real housing bottom now. Honest. Forget all the other bottoms I called.
The Big Picture details precisely why Cramer is just babbling nonsensically.
Stewart v. Cramer. Class war between investors
The Oil Drum
Many might label the current feud that has erupted between The Daily Show host John Stewart and CNBC as part of this tradition of class warfare, but it has really exposed a rift between the investor class between Wall Street insiders and outsiders that have faithfully invested their money over the years.

Why did Jim Cramer admit to manipulating the markets
In a 2006 TheStreet.com interview, Jim Cramer said he manipulated the stock market when he ran hedge funds.
So, why would he admit to it?
While what he did might have been technically illegal, probably the statute of limitations had run out.
That he boasted about it speaks volumes.
Former congressman calls for investigation of Jim Cramer
Former Rep. Tom Davis (R-Va) is calling for an investigation of Cramer, based on Cramer’s own statements in 2006 about how he manipulated stocks when he ran hedge funds.

On Jon Stewart mocking CNBC and Cramer
Jon Stewart openly mocking CNBC and its unquestioning groupie worship of the financial world is something both new and welcome, especially considering that it has gotten such major attention. This signals, I think, a sea change in how the public views the world of finance.

Are CNBC and Jim Cramer gaming the market?
So asks John Amato at C&L, citing a wealth of articles and sources. Read them all. It goes way beyond gaming the market by naked shorting and a compliant media. There’s hedge funds with organized crime money, a money culture that ignored laws (while regulators snoozed), illegal manipulation of stocks, and much more.
There needs to [...]
