CNBC’s Jim Cramer discussed the firm on Mad Money on June 2nd. Here is what he said:

“But honestly, if you’re looking for a fortress, I like the stock of JPMorgan here. It’s got balanced growth, sells for only 13 times earnings. It’s the best bank in the world…. I’m not going to give you the performance of Micron by telling you to buy JPMorgan. You’re not going to get it. But anyway, you’re not that early in Micron. You could be early in JPMorgan.

JPMorgan’s the antithesis of Micron. You normally don’t get to buy the stock so cheap, and no one would regard it as a lousy franchise even if the stock’s down 7% year to date. You can buy JPMorgan and put it away. Mighty hard to buy and put any tech stocks away right now.”
