<snip>
CNBC's Jim Cramer said the session's moves reflect investors who feel Vice President Kamala Harris could win the presidency, even as the race remains deadlocked in polls on the eve of Election Day.

* "I'm not sure the market's right about what a Harris presidency would mean for business, but at least now we have a blueprint for what Wall Street thinks it'll mean," he said.

Maybe he's right about investor sentiment, at least.  I expect the market to BOMB if she wins.

Exactly my thought.

Has Cramer ever been correct on anything?

Cramer needs to start relying on coin flips.  He'd be more accurate.  His '08 / '09 pre- Great Recession f-ups on TV are legendary, and I am surprised CNBC allowed him to stay.

I trust Howard Beale more on these matters than anything Cramer predicts.

Cramer used to manage hedge funds - betting against the market - not with the market.

Whatever Cramer says, do the opposite.  He got his ass handed to him in 2008 ...

Well this didn't age well.....

Cramer's right in one way......  "The Market's did React".....   To a Trump victory.
