What Does Jim Cramer Think Of The LinkedIn IPO?

By Bess Levin

Here’s what he’s had to say so far (spoiler alert: he would not put it in the “one of the greats” category alongside Lenny Dykstra):

* “LinkedIn is outrageously overvalued”

* “It’s preposterous”

* “It’s an absolute travesty”

* “This thing is making a mockery of NetFlix”

* “It’s horrible and should be stopped”

* “I lived through this with TheStreet.com”

* “We need a government to come in and say ‘this is wrong’”

    Cramer is right, it is outrageous. LinkedIn should have been valued at least 20bn, like Groupon. It will monetize those free users as soon as it admits hookers who can offer $2.99 fellatio to anyone within third degree of connection (with LinkedIn, of course, taking a 30% cut, just like AAPL)

    i felt my self-esteem go up when random people started connecting with me once
    i updated my company to JPM. then it shot back down when i realized
    half of them were UBS analysts.
