Think of it as a different type of Wall Street rally.

Morgan Stanley CEO James Gorman yesterday joined the chorus of defenders of Lloyd Blankfein’s firm two days after a former Goldman Sachs employee authored a poison pen attack against his firm in a New York Times op-ed.

Gorman said he told staff not to circulate the op-ed piece because he didn’t want to add more fuel to the fire around the resignation-letter cum op-ed that has gripped the attention of Wall Street for the past 48 hours.

“There but for the grace of God go us,” said Gorman, speaking at a breakfast talk hosted by Fortune.

“At any one point in time, somebody’s unhappy with me, with the organization, with the board, with the direction of the firm,” said the Morgan Stanley CEO, responding to questions about Wednesday’s poison-pen essay.

Goldman and the rest of Wall Street have been rattled by the letter, written by Greg Smith, a 33-year-old midlevel London-based employee.

Smith, in his piece, charged Goldman with losing sight of its values and compromising its culture.

Gorman’s remarks make him at least the third top official to make comments publicly or otherwise in the wake of Smith’s letter.

JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon issued an internal memo warning executives not to try and capitalize on Goldman’s predicament.

“I want to be clear that I don’t want anyone here to seek advantage from a competitor’s alleged issues or hearsay — ever,” Dimon wrote.

Oppenheimer CEO Albert Lowenthal was the first Wall Street boss into the fray. In a memo, he reminded his employees that Oppenheimer does not “trade against [its clients]” — a charge leveled against Goldman by Smith.
