Morgan Stanley

There was no shortage of good topics on which shareholders can grill Morgan Stanley’s chief executive, James P. Gorman, at the firm’s annual meeting on Wednesday in Purchase, N.Y.

DealBook was on hand for the meeting, which was held this morning. What follows is a blog of the event.
