    Did he tell you when 5G is rolling out in your area?

    Good luck with that. Pogroms have fallen out of vogue and Kristallnacht style hostile takeovers are now frowned upon.

    Yahoo finance is pretty good for basic info

    For a while we messed around with an anti Cramer strategy and would short or buy puts on stocks he pumped 24-48 hours after he pushed em and had pretty good success.

    Do what you want; but I would refrain from taking financial advice from a guy who hates money and who hates people who have it even more.

    My go to is CNBC but that's by default as Bloomberg only discusses stocks if they have been bought, going bankrupt, or have allegations of accounting improprieties against them.

    Fox Business only talks about individual stocks as the bait to get to the analysis that the stock and/or market is going up because of Trump or down b/c of Joe Biden

    Anyone have other sources they use? The Street.com is/was run by Jim Hickman and Maven so it's been destroyed like anything else he touches, and Yahoo finance is ok, but I find it very generic and it's target audience is not me.

    Also, what do other think of CNBC? I liked it much better 10-20 years ago when they were more individual stock focused. Today is more big picture macro economy other than the halftime report and fast money.

    Thanks

    Honestly? More and more, here. There are guys here whose IRL creds I know, and others who have clearly demonstrated their financial markets acumen. I work in Corp Fin; I know the real guys when I see them.

    I like Yahoo as well. Because of @HoustonHusky I read a fair amount of zero hedge too. Some of that is over my head; but there is accessible stuff too. WSJ too, of course.

    Zerohedge is great...I think they are correct on a ton of things (take the Archegos story as an example) but they completely underestimate the inertia of the current system to keep itself propped up...you have to realize they approach everything with the sky is falling mentality and recognize that they repost a lot of third party views that aren’t always as interesting.
