About two months ago Barron’s had a cover article about Cramer. Their conclusion–great entertainer but poor record of stock picking. OTOH, he rattles off one recommendation after another, so its hard to tell about his overall record. The subsequent Barron’s issues had good letters-to-editor defending him.
I also remember in the wreckage of the tech bubble, Forbes magazine was cruel enough, in about 2003, to document Cramer’s top 10 tech stock picks from a year or two before. Perhaps only one was up, the rest out of business or devastated.
