Huffington Post, ZeroHedge wrong on Cramer Citi attacks (C)
From AlphaNinja | 2009-12-18 20:00:06
I'm not suprised to see utter buffoonery from Huffington Post, but was surprised to see such laziness from ZeroHedge, whose entire "M-O" is attacking idiotic journalism.
They both TORE INTO Jim Cramer's gushing, pound-the-table argument to buy Citi (C) shares, but they got their facts wrong.

And ZeroHedge- "How To Lose 14% In Less Than Three Days?
They're both citing Citi stock at $3.70 at the time of Cramer's call. Had they bothered to LISTEN to Cramer, however, they'd have heard him say ONLY to buy at the offer price, which turned out to be $3.15. The shares are trading at $3.34 right now, so that's a 6% gain had you taken Cramer's advice, not a 14% loss.
There's plenty of reasons to attack Cramer's Citi call, especially his admitting that he "has no idea" what's going on with the company. But at least get the numbers right.
