Morgan Stanley (MS), which is a division of Morgan Stanley, has posted better than expected first-quarter earnings on the backs of record trading revenue in volatile markets.
The bank reported earnings per Share (EPS) of 2.60 on revenue records of $17.74 Billion. Visible Alpha surveyed analysts who had predicted $2.18 billion and $16.44 billion respectively.
Morgan Stanley’s performance was boosted by equity revenue, which grew 45% over the past year to a record of $4.13 billion. The bank reported “increases in business lines and regionally, especially in Asia, with strong client activity in a more volatile trading climate.”
Morgan Stanley shares have been down about 1% recently but are up more than 20 percent in the last year.
