Thanks to YouTube, we get to hear Jim Cramer with all his convictions.  Do you understand why I can’t stand individual forecasters?  They know as much as the market, if not less.  No one knows more, unless they have insider information. I would love for all the individual baseball forecasters and stock forecasters to shut up, unless they come out with Smooth Jimmy Apollo‘s accompanying statement (courtesy of Dead on:

Well, folks, when you’re right 52% of the time, you’re wrong 48% of the time.
