Is 2026 the year of Morgan Stanley?

With MS leading the Cerebras IPO yesterday and SpaceX in a few weeks, I assume they have the #1 ECM spot locked down for the year. Their other deal fees are up something crazy like 45% YoY. Seems like a historic year for them. Thoughts?

Based on the most helpful WSO content, there isn't specific information in the dataset about Morgan Stanley's performance in 2026 or their involvement in the Cerebras IPO or SpaceX deals. Additionally, there is no data confirming their ECM ranking or YoY fee growth for this year.

I'm sorry, but it looks like this may be out of my ability to answer... maybe some of the links below might help?

This website is so funny. They’ve been a top institution forever. Winning a large mandate that’s directly in their wheelhouse isn’t a game changer, it’s just the space they play in.
