Morgan Stanley (MS) has received a generally positive outlook from various experts, showcasing its impressive performance and strategic growth. The company's wealth management division is highlighted as a strong performer, fueled by recent acquisitions and significant assets under management (AUM) of $5 trillion. Analysts anticipate a favorable quarter ahead, particularly with the resurgence of IPOs and capital market activities. While the stock has experienced some profit-taking, experts believe it remains a solid long-term core holding alongside other major U.S. banks. Moreover, MS is expected to benefit from the broader trends of rising interest rates and a bullish view of the financial markets, indicating a potentially prosperous future for the company.

BUY

(Market Call Minute.) This one has been cratered, but will stay as one of the world's premier in the sector.

DON'T BUY

Stocks like this have been great over the last 20 years, but now we are in a credit situation and brokers and banks generally speaking are leveraged 20X to 1. Also, there are a bunch of derivatives out there and who knows who has what. Can't see that the risk/reward is attractive.

BUY

Still in the top 10 of his one US fund. You should own a collection of these. Massively mispriced. His model price is $85.68. A 91% positive differential.

TOP PICK

The Chinese made a $5 billion investment. This was fantastic as it virtually guarantees them an in road into China. His model price is $95.46, a 90% positive differential.

BUY

Market has been excessively negative. Their core money management business, asset management business, investment banking business, high net worth and brokerage businesses are all in very good shape. Trades at less than 10X next year's earnings. Close to 1.5X book.

SELL

(Market Call Minute.) Business is drying up for the investment banks in the US.

DON'T BUY

Would avoid US financials until there is some clarity as to who owns what. There’ll be lots of volatility here.

TOP PICK

Loves the brokers. His model price is $116.75 giving it a positive differential of almost 76 %.

DON'T BUY

Very volatile stock. The underlying business prospects are not looking great. Not a good place to be. Prefers regional banks in the southeast, southwest and midwest where strong regional economies are exposed to exports.

DON'T BUY

Feels it is a large mistake moving from Canadian to US financials. It's the wrong time to move. The US is dependent on capital market which is not good.

TOP PICK

He has a model price of $112.60. This gives it a 63% upside. There was a brokerage story in the US is still there.

TOP PICK

Hugely mispriced. 68% positive differential. Massively cheap. Over long term you’ll make money.

COMMENT

Have done a wonderful job of building their business. Prefers Merill Lynch (MER-N). Dollar cost average when buying these stocks during this intense volatility.

DON'T BUY

Spinning off their Discovery credit card, which makes sense. Everybody's watching the investment bank industry to see if the sub prime mortgages affect their next quarters.

TOP PICK

Through all the sub-prime difficulties, brokerages have been hit. This one came out with huge earnings recently. His model price is $102.64, a 29% positive differential.
