Morgan Stanley announced on Thursday that it would buy E-Trade, the online discount brokerage, for about $13 billion, in the biggest takeover by a major American lender since the 2008 global financial crisis.
The deal would give Morgan Stanley — long known as one of Wall Street’s most blue-chip names, whose asset management business already caters to the wealthy — a big share of the market for online trading.
