Morgan Stanley is a global financial services firm renowned for its investment banking, wealth management, and institutional securities services.
Established in 1935 by Harold Stanley and Henry S. Morgan, it has grown into one of the world’s leading financial institutions.
The company’s operations span across wealth management, institutional securities, and investment management, serving corporations, governments, institutions, and individuals worldwide.
In 2013, Morgan Stanley acquired the remaining stake in Morgan Stanley Smith Barney, further consolidating its wealth management business (a wealth management division of Morgan Stanley).
Morgan Stanley (MS) has seen its share price rise and fall significantly over the years, offering valuable lessons for investors.
MS rebounded strongly from the 2008 crisis, rising from the low of $6.71 in October 2008 to a high of $106.47 in January 2022 – generating nearly 1500% returns – multiplying your money 15 times.
This teaches investors or those new to the stock market to buy quality companies during downturns when valuations are low but ensure they have strong fundamentals for recovery.
During the 2020-2021 Bull Run – MS surged an impressive 230%, fuelled by pandemic-driven trading activity and economic stimulus.
This shows that one can capitalize on market trends by keeping oneself aware of potential corrections and overvaluations
