Cramer is crook like the rest of that ilk:
“A lot of times when I was short, I would create a level of activity beforehand that would drive the futures. . . . It’s a fun game,” Cramer said in the Webcast, which was moderated by TheStreet.com Executive Editor Aaron Task.
Cramer later said that “no one else in the world would ever admit that, but I don’t care.”
However, seconds later, he acknowledged, “I’m not going to say that on TV,” referring to his show on CNBC.
A remarkably successful money manager when he ran the $450 million Cramer Berkowitz hedge fund, Cramer in the Webcast shared his “tips” on how to drive a stock price down so that a short-position - a bet that a stock price would drop - remains profitable.
He added that the strategy - while illegal - was safe enough because, “the Securities and Exchange Commission never understands this.”
