Jim Cramer's 'Stop Trading!': Goldman Is Best in Show

"Godman's(GS Quote - Cramer on GS - Stock Picks) getting no credit whatsoever" for its earnings, Jim Cramer said on Monday's "Stop Trading!" segment on CNBC.

There's been a series of stories about how Goldman's not going to be able to make as much money. "This is just ridiculous," Cramer said.

"This is about the prime brokerages all pulling out at the same time," he said. "It was never about M&A. It was never about most of the things Goldman does."

For example, according to Cramer, Goldman has 11% Tier 1 capital. "This is kind of ludicrous that 11% Tier 1 is actually worse than banks that have huge amounts of home equity."

Goldman's multiple is seven times earnings, he said, and Morgan Stanley's(MS Quote - Cramer on MS - Stock Picks) is six times earnings. "USB(USB Quote - Cramer on USB - Stock Picks), Wells Fargo(WFC Quote - Cramer on WFC - Stock Picks), PNC(PNC Quote - Cramer on PNC - Stock Picks) -- these are all between 14 and 17 times earnings. Do some homework before you start talking about the multiple."

Goldman and Morgan "are best in show," said Cramer. "I'm surprised that Goldman isn't up, but you can knock anything down today."
