Morgan Stanley reported a significant surge in investment banking activity, with fees rising 56% year-over-year to nearly $1.4 billion, boosting net profits by 32% to $3.2 billion. The results exceeded analyst expectations and reflect a broader recovery on Wall Street, with other major banks also experiencing increased revenue.
