Where sources disagree
Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC
Same entity (Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC), same metric (net_income), same fiscal period (Q1 2026), same observation date (2026-03-31), but vastly different values: $5.567 billion vs. $5.57. These cannot coexist for the same time period. Fact B appears to be a data entry error (possible missing decimal placement: 5.57 should likely be 5,567,000,000 or a per-share figure incorrectly entered as total).
