MORGAN STANLEY LAY OFF. 3000 JOBS OR 7% FROM INVESTMENT BANKERS AND TRADERS.

 "The long awaited event appears to be unfolding."

"To recap, Morgan Stanley is thought to be cutting 3,000 jobs, with investment bankers and traders most exposed to the scythe. Bloomberg reported previously that Morgan Stanley's wealth management staff should be immune to being cut. It also reported that Morgan Stanley was considering laying off 7% of its investment bank jobs in Asia. "

"It's a bad time to be a managing producer unless you're also a good producer," says the head of one New York search firm. "If you're not making money yourself, you will be pushed out now. The worst position to be in is that of the non-producing manager. If you're - say - head of North American sales trading now, you need to be talking to your clients and managing the team, or you're out."

Revenues in Morgan Stanley's institutional securities unit (investment bank) fell 11% year-on-year in the first quarter and profits were down 33%. The decline was most dramatic in M&A (down 32%) and least dramatic in debt capital markets (down 6%). "

TAMING INFLATION WHILE BEATING THE ECONOMY RESULT IN BANKING CRISIS , PREDICTION OF A SEVERE RECESSION IN 2023

" Around this time last year, Nouriel Roubini, the famed economist who has earned the sobriquet  Dr. Doom  on Wall Street for his gloomy outlook on markets, warned that it would be “ mission impossible ” for the U.S. to avoid a severe recession in 2023." " The comments mark a big shift in tone from Roubini, who in July 2022 said that his peers predicting a short and shallow recession at the time were “ totally delusional .” But a lot has changed since last July. Fed Chair Jerome Powell has managed to cool inflation to from its 9.1% pandemic-era high to just 3.7%, all while maintaining U.S. GDP growth; supply chains, which were thrown into chaos during the pandemic, have mostly  healed ; and despite a short-lived regional banking  crisis  in March, the S&P 500 is up over 16% year to date."

IMEC. LACKS LOGICAL JUSTIFICATION.

 "Critics argue that India’s new corridor lacks logical justification. India opting for a rail and shipping corridor when the existing and cheaper Suez Canal and maritime routes are available does not make sense . Secondly, building railways through desert terrain requires elevated tracks with deep support to withstand shifting sands and hard bedrock. The political landscape in the US adds another layer of uncertainty, as opposition to investment in this corridor could increase if the Biden administration loses power. The Republicans, on the other hand, would oppose putting money into a failing project just like they did not want to put money into the Ukraine war. On the other hand, the US and India have previously announced initiatives like the Chabahar Corridor, the International North-South Corridor and the US Blue Dot Network, but the status of these projects remains uncertain." "...Moreover, IMEC passes through Jordan and Israel, introducing complex geopolitical ch
