William,Not sure if I buy this argument. Anyone else have an opinion on this? Has this occurred before? Seems like it would be a reoccurring thing if valid.

One thing I have learned is CEO Morgan has high credibility with WS. He has not mislead us in the past and I doubt if he is at this point. His remarks on Squawk Box Wednesday morning will clarify any mis-speaks if any were made.

Just my opinions.

Paul
