Tudor Investment Corp’s Stake: $126 Million   

Morgan Stanley (NYSE:MS) is a financial holding company that provides various financial products and services to corporations, governments, financial institutions, and individuals. The company has featured in the 13F portfolio of Tudor Investment Corp since early 2015. Back then, this stake comprised just 6,500 shares. In the years since, the fund has loaded up on the stock, growing the ownership to 469,000 shares at the end of 2016. Following that, the fund trimmed this holding. Latest filings, submitted at the end of the fourth quarter of 2025, show that the fund owned over 712,000 shares in the company, up nearly 6,500% compared to filings for the previous quarter.

Morgan Stanley (NYSE:MS) has become of immense interest to elite investors in recent months. Hedge funds are betting on a massive resurgence in investment banking fees as corporate boardrooms re-engage in deal-making. Morgan Stanley’s own 2026 outlook projects global M&A volumes to grow by 20% in 2026 and another 15% in 2027. While other banks face volatile trading revenue, hedge funds value Morgan Stanley for its massive, fee-based Wealth Management arm. The firm is well on its way to its stated goal of $10 trillion in client assets. This provides a recurring revenue model that hedge funds find more predictable than traditional lending. With Wealth Management pre-tax margins consistently hitting 30%, the stock is being re-rated by institutions as more of a high-margin asset manager than a risky commercial bank.
