Jim Cramer on Goldman Sachs: “That’s Worth Buying”

The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. (NYSE:GS) is one of the stocks Jim Cramer offered insights on. Cramer was bullish on the stock during the episode, as he commented:

“Take Goldman Sachs. I’ve been shouting from the rooftops that this will be the year of mergers and acquisitions, not to mention gigantic equity offerings. Goldman stock opened almost unchanged. It sells at just 17 times earnings, less than the average S&P 500 stock, even though it’s much better than they are, and it’s a huge player in M&A and issuance IPOs. That’s worth buying. The stock ended up rallying nearly 4% after it caught fire. You could have made all that today, and I think it’s still got lots more room to run. Not a trade.”

The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. (NYSE:GS) provides financial services, including investment banking, asset and wealth management, and banking solutions. Cramer highlighted the company stock’s stellar performance for the year during the December 19, 2025, episode, as he said:

“Meanwhile, there are plenty of IPOs and acquisitions, which have caused furious buying of the bank stocks. We saw a very positive article about Wells Fargo in the journal. Goldman Sachs up 56% for the year, now eclipse[s] most of the performance of the Magnificent Seven. There’s a reason for that. Goldman Sachs may be growing faster than almost all the stocks in tech, let alone the Magnificent Seven. And by the way, had a lot less risk, which is what really matters. These financial and consumer spending companies just keep delivering better and better and better expected numbers as expectations are incredibly low versus the monstrously high expectations for anything related to the data center.”
