Morgan Stanley Finance LLC priced a preliminary offering of Trigger Jump Securities linked to the common stock of Amazon.com, Inc. The notes have a $1,000 stated principal amount, mature on November 3, 2027, and pay no interest. Investors receive an upside payment of $338.40 per security ( 33.84%) if the final share price is greater than or equal to the initial share price.
