Sheldon Liber writes on BloggingStocks.com about the difficulty that CNBC will have in replacing “Mad Money” host Jim Cramer when he decides to retire.
Liber wrote, “This is not an obituary for his CNBC show. Only the recognition that all things must end and Cramer brings it up all too often.
“He could never do four decades like Louis Rukeyser, who was America’s most popular economic commentator. This when Cramer was just opening his eyes and knew nothing of the world of finance.”
Later, he concluded, “Could Jim Rome co-host Mad Money? Could Warren Buffett contribute for a point-counter-point segment? Does the quick witted, sharp tongued perma-bear Alan Abelson of Barron’s (subscription required) have what it takes to do the show? I think not. When Cramer trades it in for something else it will be over.”
