Cramer on Brokerage Firm Stocks

Cramer on tonight’s MAD MONEY has some ways to play next week in brokerage firm analysts: Goldman Sachs (GS) reports before open on Tuesday.  Lehman (LEH) before on Wedsnesday.  Bear Stearns (BSC) before open on Thursday.  Cramer thinks there will be pain in the immediate future and you’ll be able to buy these at much cheaper multiples next Friday.  If these do not sell-off after earnings he thinks that you can still make money.  The bears will probably drive these down according to Cramer.  Here is OUR PREVIEW for earnings in Goldman Sachs.

The bears will frighten you into selling and you can count on the bears to lie and to plant bad stories in the media.  Cramer thinks the bears can convince media that the tape is painted in bad light.  Next Friday Cramer thinks you will be able to buy the best companies around at a discount.

Another name that Cramer thinks you can look at is J.Crew (JCG) after Tuesday’s close.  The stock has been held down by a botched secondary and when they report he thinks they’ll do well and wouldn’t have done the secondary if the quarter was going to be bad.
