New Issue: Morgan Stanley sells $6.05 million contingent income autocalls on tech stock basket

By William Gullotti

Buffalo, N.Y., March 25 – Morgan Stanley Finance LLC priced $6.05 million of contingent income autocallable securities due Dec. 27, 2024 linked to an equally weighted basket of the common stocks of Apple Inc., Advanced Micro Devices, Inc., Nvidia Corp. and Marvell Technology, Inc., according to a 424B2 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will be guaranteed by Morgan Stanley.

The notes will pay a contingent monthly coupon at an annual rate of 10.25% if the basket closes at or above the 70% coupon barrier on the observation date for that period.

The notes will be called at par plus the coupon if the basket closes at or above its initial level on any monthly review date after six months.

The payout at maturity will be par plus the final coupon if the basket finishes at or above the coupon barrier.

If the basket finishes below the coupon barrier but at or above the 60% downside threshold, the payout at maturity will be par. Otherwise, investors will be fully exposed to basket decline.

Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC is the agent.
