Morgan Stanley is getting killed today, falling more than 9%
amid all kinds of rumors, talk about its CDS curve, European
exposure, etc.  It's fairly stomach turning, and reminiscent of
2008.  What's really interesting is taking a step back. Not only
are we looking at a 2008-era close for the stock, we're talking
about a decline of some 87% from its 2000 high. Really, it's
just a shadow of its former self.  chart of the day, morgan
