> Says Cramer: What's important when you're in that hedgefund mode, is to not do anything remotely truthful, because the truth is so against your view, so its important to CREATE A NEW TRUTH to develop a fiction...the great thing about the market is it has absolutely nothing to do with the actual stocks

quite a bit has changed since 2006, specifically in the financial reform bill of 2010 and the jobs act of 2012

not a lot, but a bit

circulating a clip from 2006 as your only insight into the hedge fund world just proves all the talking heads right about retail traders being a joke.
