Maven, Cramer partner on TheStreet video channel

Maven is set to launch a new TheStreet video channel featuring single subject clips in partnership with Jim Cramer’s Cramer Digital, reports Melynda Fuller of Publishers Daily.

Fuller reports, “TheStreet-branded channel, which lives on StreetLightning.io, features free, quick-hit 90-second videos focused on news, markets and trends in stocks, economic policy and industry sectors. The show is hosted by Cramer, his investment team and other journalists from TheStreet.

“Ahead of the launch, the team plans to update the Street Lightning platform 10 times per day.

“An ‘Ask Cramer’ element, which includes other Street editors, is available for TheStreet/Action Alerts Plus members. They can ask questions related to investment advice and the platform’s videos.”
