"Citi is as fat and as happy as I have ever seen it, with the executives perfectly oblivious to the fact that this financial has underperformed every other major financial institution out there," he said.
Although there's a lot of talk that the company needs to be broken up, it's probably because the bank has done nothing, Cramer went on to say. "I believe that breakup calls make sense, but not until you have someone at the helm who can make a difference," he said, adding he would prefer to have a CEO who understands how to make the business work before the company is broken up.
