Did This Really Happen! Put Some Thought Into This One -- Happy 250th Birthday -- July 2, 2026

Locator: 51098MARKET.  

Did the Dow hit an all-time high July 2, 2026, Thursday, just before July 4th? 

That's a pretty good story line. I think a good writer could turn this into a great movie. 

So, Happy 250th Birthday. 

Good luck for the rest of the year. And on.

Jim Cramer

The highlight of the day was the self-promotion of Jim Cramer "documentary" in the "Mad Money" segment on CNBC earlier this evening. The one-hour documentary was a look back over the last twenty years of Jim Cramer as part of the CNBC family. Absolutely fascinating, though, of course, self-promoting. But entertaining.

The most interesting part was the  segment on the subprime mortgage crisis, a multinational financial disaster triggered by the collapse of the U.S. housing bubble between 2007 and 2010. I remember vividly many different events during that multi-year crisis.
