  • Cramer calls Bank of America quarter really fine despite 4% stock drop
    January 18, 2026, 1:03 PM EST. Jim Cramer said Bank of America delivered a real quarter, calling it really fine and noting a top- and bottom-line beat. He highlighted 7% revenue growth and 18% earnings per share growth, with net interest income (NII) up about 10% and better than expected. Yet the stock fell roughly 4% on the day, which he described as extreme and attributed to broad market weakness rather than the results. He pointed to strength across all four business lines, with global wealth and investment management and global markets each up more than 10% year-over-year. Guidance for 2026 includes 5-7% NII growth; CEO Brian Moynihan voiced optimism on the US economy. The pullback, in Cramer's view, reflected labeling risk rather than fundamentals.
