Jim Cramer has become a well-known figure in the world of finance and investing. He is most widely recognized for his work as host of CNBC’s Mad Money and co-founder of TheStreet.com.
Cramer began his career on Wall Street where he worked as an analyst for Goldman Sachs, before becoming a hedge fund manager at Cramer & Co. In 1997, he founded TheStreet.com which was initially designed to provide financial news and analysis to individual investors, but quickly expanded its scope to cover all aspects of the financial markets including stocks, bonds, commodities, derivatives and cryptocurrencies.
In 2005, Cramer began hosting CNBC’s Mad Money program which features him offering stock advice along with interviews from industry experts discussing their areas of expertise. His show typically covers topics such as economic trends or specific companies that may be affected by those trends.
Although Jim Cramer does not directly invest in cryptocurrency himself (he has been known to refer to them as “tulips”), he often discusses Bitcoin or other digital currencies during episodes of Mad Money when it relates to stocks or commodities trading on exchanges that accept them as payment options or have exposure in some way related to blockchain technology adoption rates within certain industries like banking or retailing. Additionally, he often invites guests onto the show who are knowledgeable about cryptocurrencies so they can explain how they work and what impact they could have on other investments held by viewers watching at home
