Morgan Stanley may face $5.7 bln Q4 writeoff-CNBC
Fri Nov 30, 2007 1:16pm ET

NEW YORK, Nov 30 (Reuters) - Morgan Stanley (MS.N: Quote, Profile , Research) may face a fiscal fourth-quarter write-down of as much as $5.7 billion for mortgage-related losses, CNBC television said on Friday.

The pretax amount is $2 billion higher than the amount the Wall Street company said it will write down for mortgage-related trading losses in September and October. Morgan Stanley's fiscal fourth quarter ends this month.

On Thursday, Zoe Cruz was ousted as Morgan Stanley's co-president. Several analysts have said her departure is related to the mortgage losses.

Analysts on average expect Morgan Stanley to post a fourth-quarter loss of 4 cents per share, according to Reuters Estimates. (Reporting by Jonathan Stempel, editing by Phil Berlowitz)
