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?
Morgan Stanley lowkey might actually be having a moment again. Feels like the bank spent a few years in the post-pandemic haze while everyone online either glazed EBs or acted like JPM/GS were the only firms that existed. Now deal activity is picking up again
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.
