Gotham's Dark Knight Dumps Energy Stock! Is Your Portfolio Safe?

The Bat Signal... for Bad Investments?

The GCPD isn't the only one dealing with chaos folks. Even Jim Cramer's Charitable Trust is feeling the heat. They're offloading 500 shares of Coterra Energy at around $25.56 a pop. After this little firesale they'll be stuck with a measly 2,600 shares. It seems even the so called experts can't predict the future or in this case whether oil or gas is the belle of the ball. As I always say: 'It's not who I am underneath but what I do that defines me.' And right now Cramer's Trust is defined by... well let's just say it's not pretty.

Robin Hold My Batarang! Selling Winners Really?

Cramer's team has been trimming the fat off some winners – Goldman Sachs Broadcom Disney CrowdStrike and Eaton. Sounds sensible right? But here's the kicker: they admit selling losers is a 'cardinal sin.' Tell that to Gotham's villains; I've been selling them down the river for years! Holding onto underperforming stocks is like waiting for Two Face to have a change of heart. Spoiler alert: it's not happening. I always believed “Criminals aren’t complicated Alfred. Just have to figure out what he is after”. Apparently Jim Cramer did not.

Coterra: The Stock That Couldn't.

Apparently Coterra has been a real lemon. Too much natural gas when the market wanted oil and now too much oil when everyone's suddenly thirsty for natural gas. It's like the Riddler designed their inventory strategy. And to top it off there was an 'operational miscue' at one of their sites. An 'miscue'? That's like saying the Joker has a slight 'tendency' to cause mayhem. They thought of it as a hedge against geopolitical risk until the hedge got clipped.

June Gloom and Oil Booms (That Went Bust)

Remember that brief Iran Israel spat? Cramer thought Coterra would be their golden goose. Oil prices spiked but Coterra couldn't hold onto the gains. It's like expecting Penguin to fly. The Dark Knight’s one golden rule is to not expect villains to change. Some of them I learnt over time were beyond redemption. It is a rule of life and I guess Jim Cramer just learnt it in the Stock Market.

Downgrade to Sell: Even the Bat Computer Saw This Coming

With Coterra shares up (briefly) on Tuesday Cramer's Trust saw a chance to cut their losses. They're downgrading Coterra to a '3,' which in layman's terms means 'dump it while you can!' They're realizing an 11% loss on stock purchased in 2022. Ouch. Even Alfred could've seen that one coming. Next time they should consult the Bat Signal… or maybe just a Magic 8 Ball.

Investing Club: More Like a Comedy Club?

Subscribers get a 'trade alert' before Cramer makes a move. He waits 45 minutes before trading giving everyone ample time to… well probably panic. And if he's blabbed about a stock on TV he waits 72 hours. It's all subject to terms conditions disclaimers and a healthy dose of 'no guarantees.' Remember folks investing is a serious business. Unless you're watching Cramer then it's pure entertainment.
