But But Cramer Said!
 

He was just on CNBS crooning that "Asia is Back!"

Oh really?

Not according to CAT it isn't.

Last three months were down 7% Asia/Pacific and down 6% in North America.  Down 1% worldwide.  Up was in Latin America, which has been on a tear the last six months or so.

And power systems in industrial and transportation were down 20% and 11%, respectively.

That's not so good.

CAT reports next week.

And here is Cramer top-ticking (pretty much) AAPL on September 13, 2012:

The only purpose of Jim Cramer is to make Henry Hindsight's predictions seem respectable (see link below).

On the other hand one could regard Cramer as the perfect contrarian indicator. Whatever he says, do the opposite.

I'm just glad Cramer is in NY and not Texas. I want to kick the TV every time he is on and might be tempted to hunt him down and kick his lying ass. His saving grace is stocks are in a bull move about 70% of the time, so he can play the blind squirrel well, as there are nuts all over the place. All this CNBS hype about AAPL has to make you think, who were they trying to help unload. The outfits that are overweight this company are going to have an ugly quarter and maybe year. As amazing as they might be promoting this 4 year rally to be, it has roughly retraced a 17 month decline and the only people with sizable holdings acquired on the bottom had inside information. The first half of the rally happened before anyone knew it was happening. Seems Cramer had spent the last 6 months of that decline telling people to sell quite a bit.
