I love the little footnote in "Mad Money" Jim Cramer's graph of what stock transactions should be made at different points in the business cycle: "At no point should one ever invest in airline stocks."

I love the little footnote in "Mad Money" Jim Cramer's graph of what stock transactions should be made at different points in the business cycle: "At no point should one ever invest in airline stocks."

Yet he was ranting about Northwest being a good buy on his TV show last week, go figure...
