Deputy CFO Akram Raja sells 17,500 MS shares at $136.01 (Jan 2025); stock at 52-week high, up 8.4% in 30d

Akram Raja, Deputy Chief Financial Officer, sold 17,500 shares of Morgan Stanley at $136.01 on 2025-01-21, reducing his holdings from 98,939 shares to 81,439 shares (-17.7%). The sale occurred near the 52-week high of $137.87 and follows strong near-term momentum: the stock is up 8.4% over the prior 30 days and 17.9% over 90 days. His cross-ticker track record shows 4 prior open-market sales with an average 90-day return of +3.3%, though only 25.00% were well-timed (negative 90d returns). At Morgan Stanley specifically, his prior 4 sales showed mixed outcomes: only 1 of 4 had negative 90-day returns. Fundamentally, Morgan Stanley reported latest-quarter revenue of $15,383,000,000.00 and net income of $3,188,000,000.00, with modest annual growth of +0.9% and a P/E of 19.83. The sale is neither clearly aligned with nor contradictory to his historical timing pattern.

Deputy CFO Akram Raja sold 7,500 MS shares at $106.37 on 2024-07-18 for $797.8K, reducing holdings by 7.9%

AKRAM RAJA (Deputy Chief Financial Officer) executed a sale of 7,500 shares at $106.37, near the 52-week high of $106.96, realizing $797.8K. Post-transaction holdings of 87.1K shares represent a 7.9% reduction from the prior 94.6K. His cross-ticker track record across 3 prior sales shows a 90-day well-timed rate of 33.33%, while at MS specifically, 1 of 3 prior sells yielded negative 90-day returns (well-timed). The most recent sale at this ticker on 2024-01-18 was followed by +3.5% 30-day and +7.8% 90-day returns—a poorly-timed exit. Current price of $102.09 sits 4.6% below the transaction price, and the stock has appreciated 12.6% over 90 days, suggesting this sale occurred near a tactical peak but does not yet demonstrate outsized predictive accuracy given the mixed historical record at MS.
