Stock market television financial show guest expert don't preach too much fire and brimstone you will scare away the bull market

I am reading Jim Cramer's latest book so I wrote his pals at the financial news something. Boo-yah!

start


If you want to be invited back as a guest host on the Financial news don't be negative and don't be a perpetual bear.

Don't be one of these guys who always sees a 30% drop in prices behind every down day in the Dow. Don't be a cranky bear for the first five years of a robust bull market.

If the market is off for a few days don't scare off the customers. If every viewer was to lose his drive to become fabulously wealthy where would the Financial news network be?

Stock market television financial show guests expert don't preach too much fire and brimstone; you will scare away the bull market and our viewers and customers. A retreat in prices is an ideal time to buy, valuations are more objective, in line with earnings; no one ever lost money betting bullishly on America's future.

Don't try to be an actual prophet. No one can see into the future. No one knows for real when prices for stocks will rise, fall or stay put for a while. It's a charade to pretend to know in aggregate where prices will go next, at least beyond the near term immediate future.

Here's what I wrote before, sort of related to what I am talking about here: as usual this means that and it's all so metaphorical


the caricature artist

fiction
Edward w Pritchard


A caricature artist who doesn't follow the unwritten code of the profession can hurt a client deeply.

What lies beneath should be hidden and private. But, in a moment of spontaneity, a day at the beach or a walk in a park, a patron pays a few lira to have his picture sketched in wiggly lines for his best girl. An unflattering silhouette suggesting future rotundity, a beaking red nose hinting at future lechery or an sagging behind offends and startles both involved.

Why won't these young caricature artists follow the ancient criteria of daily practice? Must they shout every one's secret flaws?

Use your pen to entertain not to startle our unsuspecting public and our generous patrons. Let a walk along the boardwalk be pleasant and memorable in a fun way for our customers. Caricature artist don't lay bare your customer's soul.
