] approach to mortgage-backed securities. According to Cramer, the investment bank saw where that market was headed and managed to sidestep the worst of it.
The result? Earnings per share of $6.13 when the Street consensus estimates were for $4.35 – a 40% beat.
“That can only happen when you’re an underestimated and fabulous company,” Cramer said. Goldman Sachs has proved it is a better firm than the other brokers, and “it deserves to trade that way.”

“I think this stock is going much higher,” Cramer said, all the way to his $300 price target.
