The Essential Cramer

 

Jim Cramer is prolific, to put it mildly.

On just about every trading day for the last 10 years, he has given readers his insider's perspective on the forces moving the market, always with the goal of letting the small investor in on the action. He's outrageous, outraged and out in front of the rest of the market.

He hasn't lacked for targets: In the last decade, he's warned readers to exit tech before the bubble popped and advised against believing wrongheaded analysts and pundits. He's shed light on the dirty dealings by mutual funds and avaricious executives and lamented a plodding Securities and Exchange Commission.

When he hasn't been on his soapbox, in his pulpit or in a fight with CNBC anchors, Cramer's been in the confessional, showing investors by example how to face their mistakes. And he's given fresh, professional insight into how to beat your own worst investing and trading enemy, yourself.

This collection takes you from his first-ever column for TheStreet.com through his writings on the latest market issues. Grab your mouse and get scrolling. You'll find Cramer's of-the-moment reactions to market-moving events and inside scoop on running big money, including his fictional dialogues (names changed to protect the not-so-innocent).

It's hard to say what the next 10 years will bring. But one thing's sure: Cramer won't let them go by unremarked upon.

1996: In the Beginning, There Was Cramer

Cramer's first column: Cramer on Bears in the Press

Followed shortly by his first trip to TSC's confessional: Cramer's Worst Moves in '96

1997: The Asian Contagion, Explaining the Street and Dow 9000

Ever the opportunist, Cramer helped readers see the flip side of a situation that had Wall Street and Main Street running scared: Cramer on the 'Frightful' Korea Situation

He wasn't too busy to make sure everyone knew the value of this new venture, though: Why TSC Will Prevail in Biz Journalism Battle

The urge to let the public into the back room finally found expression in Cramer's first full year writing for TheStreet.com, when he started to narrate the life of a trader, his life:

Remember when AOL was a big deal? Cramer on The Wonder of Stocks Like AOL

There was always time to scourge those who had abused the public's trust: Cramer Muses About Quick & Reilly Deal: Who Knew What and When?

Columns like this gained the trust of readers, who have come to depend on Cramer's honest, no-holds-barred puncturing of meaningless pontificating: Cramer Analyzes the 1929/1987 Deja Voodoo in the Media

Take another trip in the wayback machine (where did the Dow just close?): Cramer Still Sees Dow 9000

1998: Hard Times, Long Term Capital Management and Cendant

Long Term Capital Management shocked and then rocked the markets. Our man was there, with an industry insider's view:


Celebrate 10 Years of TSC
Cramer: With Gratitude
Award Winning Stories
'96-'00: Mad Dash to Nasdaq
'00-'02: Harsh Realities
Best of Cramer

Who, Clinton, impeached? Cramer was there with not just an evacuation route but a way to make money off what most people saw as a catastrophe: Discounting the Unthinkable

Firsthand experience with the malfeasance of Cendant's executives still makes for riveting reading (Cramer later testified at the sentencing hearings for those same executives):
