MS and JPM and GS may experience some more tough times as rates for the longer duration t-bills go higher. This stems from widely dispersed derivatives in unknown places. It is not clear which entities have exposure to rising rates, but any investment banks with bets on either side can suffer problems either due to counterparty risk (for gains) or outright losses (from bad bets). Since the investment banks arleady are struggling to build up equity vs. assets which are opaque, it is reasonable to conclude that until MS fully opens up its books (which is unlikely) or the crisis is over, t...

Enjoy Morgan Stanley Co. and believe it will merge with at least one more company in the next year. This could also mean buying another company or two. Plenty of room to expand and improve their financial picture.

I should be ashamed of myself in my recent about face in MS. I think it should be sold with the rest of the financial stocks. Sell baby sell. And next time I say it is time to buy remind me not to be so stupid.

Morgan Stanley is in a white knuckle situation, having just had a 22% haircut today. They are waiting on a big chunk of change($9 billion) from MTU on Tuesday. I believe that the government won't let Morgan Stanley fail. Look for them to get a cash infusion from Uncle Sam now that Paulson has been given the power to do so. Also, don't rule out them being bought lock, stock, and barrel. Still, this is a speculative pick and should only be made with money that you can afford to lose.

Filed under: International markets, Morgan Stanley (MS), Barclays plc ADS (BCS), Stocks to Buy  I am the Global Editor at MoneyShow.com and each week I interview an investing expert. This week, I spoke with John Snowden, contributor to The IRS Report newsletter, who says the British economy will slide deeper into recession and the markets will move lower, too.
Q. What is your outlook for Great Britain's economy in the next 12 months? <>A. We are on the cusp of a recession, but we have yet to feel the real crunch from a retailing viewpoint. The forthcoming all-important Christmas trading period wi...

Clash of the ideals! Oil's down, and what can you buy when there's so much bad bank news? What can you buy when Wachovia (NYSE: WB) (Cramer's Take) is boosting reserves and Morgan Stanley (NYSE: MS)) (Cramer's Take) is still being pursued by authorities and JPMorgan (NYSE: JPM) (<>C...

Goldman Sachs (GS) reports tomorrow and Morgan Stanley (MS) Wednesday. I own both these stocks as a "barbell" approach to the market - owning some things in places I am not really that positive on - knowing that they can rally at times the rest of the portfolio might dip (which has been the pattern many times since last summer). [Jun 6: Starting to Buy Stuff I Don't Like] That said, combined these 2 make up less than 2.5% of the fund at current time, so it's not much of a barbell. These 2 are the best of an awful bunch - the open question is, as the easy credit days disappear like memor...

In light of a previous post in regards to sector rotation, I am beginning a stake in Goldman Sachs (GS).<!--more-->
I've been waiting for a breakout over $185, which was the March high.
We have some serious resistance at the 200 day moving average, $197,
but if that breaks - the sky is the relative limit.
<>I am doingthis to create a more balanced approach in the fund, sort of a minibarbell effect. I now have 2 homebuilders and 2 investment banks(Morgan Stanley being the other) - while in total they make up 10% orso of the fund, I need to have "something" working when the marketturns to its ea...

In a world of virtually no fixed-income return, when you offer a 7% piece of paper with terrific upside, as Lehman (NYSE: LEH) (Cramer's Take) did, you can bet you will get takers.
Sure the yield wasn't as good as Merrill's (NYSE: MER) (<>Cramer's ...
