SHAREHOLDER ALERT: Bronstein, Gewirtz & Grossman, LLC Announces Investigation of E*TRADE Financial Corporation (ETFC)

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / February 21, 2020 / Bronstein, Gewirtz & Grossman, LLC is investigating potential claims against the Board of Directors of E*TRADE Financial Corporation (E*TRADE " or "the Company") (NASDAQ:ETFC) for possible breaches of fiduciary duty in connection with the proposed sale of the Company to Morgan Stanley (NYSE: MS). Such investors are encouraged to obtain additional information and assist the investigation by visiting the firm's site: www.bgandg.com/etfc.

On February 20, 2020, E*TRADE revealed they have entered into a definitive merger agreement, in which Morgan Stanley will acquire E*TRADE. Under terms of the transaction, E*TRADE shareholders will receive only 1.0432 Morgan Stanley share for each share of E*TRADE stock they own, which represents per share consideration of $58.74 based on the closing price of Morgan Stanley's common stock on February 19, 2020. Nevertheless, stockholders will be subject to the future price fluctuation of Morgan Stanley's stock price. The investigation concerns whether E*TRADE's board breached their fiduciary duties to shareholders and whether Morgan Stanley is underpaying for the Company.
