Do you think real estate will outperform stocks over the long term?-- Walt from Boston
James J. Cramer
: According to Jeremy Siegel from Wharton, stocks have historically outperformed real estate over all 20-year periods, so I believe stocks are the better long-term bet.
Jim, I think Pfizer (PFE) - Get Pfizer Inc. Report could hit $50 by the end of 2006. Do you agree?-- Ramon from Puerto Rico
TheStreet Recommends
James J. Cramer
: I don't believe that Pfizer can hit $50 by year-end. There would have to be a dramatic improvement in the company's drug pipeline, and the litigation environment would have to improve. In addition, we would need a massive slowing of the economy that would make pharma stocks more attractive to investors.
