Morgan Stanley (MS) reported better-than-expected third-quarter results Wednesday, even as investor disappointment over its wealth management business and the prolonged slump in investment banking weighed heavily on shares — prompting us to lower our price target on the Club holding. Bottom line Morgan Stanley shares plummeted by 6.6% Wednesday, to hit a new 52-week low of roughly $75 apiece. Wealth management revenues increased about 5% on an annual basis, but fell short of analysts' forecasts.
