who said Cramer sucks?

Hello, All!

Our pension fund is back to where it was on Dec 31, 2007.  And that even 
includes a few $Ks paid out to retires in 2008.   It took a lot of oil,
corn and 
30 year bond futures trading to accomplish this Herculean feat.  It also 
benefitted from a few Cramer  stocks, viz., MA (+314%), XTO (+23.32%), HAL

(+7.30%) and CHK(+9.86%), FRO (+8.63%).  Maybe the numbers aren't
spectacular 
(except for MA) but in this market who's complaining?

I would also add that transitioning 1/4 of our capitalization to closed
end bond 
funds made a difference too.  We own FAM, AVK, AWF, ARK, CHY, IID, and
XCB.TO. 
They average out to 8.49% yield and have returned a whopping 4.2% YTD  in 
appreciation.
