IF you want deposits, then why are you acquiring a herd of financial advisors? A tiny portion of their book is in deposits.

Gorman is a nut. Pushing all this C19 nonsense. MS had to be in trouble financially, circa Sept 2019. It's the only explanation that makes sense.

The firm was unable to fund itself in the repo markets. Ergo, C19 bailouts to the rescue.

so choose a CEO based upon a social construct? Gender isn't biological anymore right? I get confused with the "Science" of 2021, as it were.

I long for the meritocracy I joined in 1999. This place is a trainwreck. It feels like "playing house" versus running a business.
