One thing that differentiates Morgan Stanley (MS 1.81%) from its competitors on Wall Street is the ownership of its shares -- specifically, the size of its biggest shareholder, Mitsubishi UFJ (NYSE: MTU).

T. Rowe Price (TROW 0.40%) also counts itself among Morgan Stanley's biggest shareholders, ranking third with an ownership interest equivalent to 5.3% of the fabled investment bank's stock.
