Friday, Oct. 14, 2022: Cramer breaks down some of the Trust stocks' earnings reportsJim Cramer and Jeff Marks compare some of Friday morning's earnings reports by the big banks. They also share why they think the market isn't oversold anymore, Thursday's giant short squeeze and intraday swing, and how it may be time to start doing some selling. Finally, Jim and Jeff discuss chipmaker companies being in a holding pattern, awaiting the next move by President Biden on their dealings with China. Who listens to that 🤡🤡🤡. $GETY was perfection. Only down 82% since he highlighted it. This is why I've moved on to Bloomberg as CNBC is now just one big ad for Cramer's this and that.....He's a bright guy but he's just one of so many.....and cannot stomach you treating him like a naughty boy....What a shame.
