investment manager

Morgan Stanley said it is divesting its 6.7% stake in investment manager Invesco. The investment bank will sell the 30.9 million shares it received as part of the sale of its Van Kampen mutual fund portfolio to Invesco, a stake worth nearly $717 million at Tuesday's closing price of $23.20.

A hot topic on Wall Street last week was who would potentially replace the Oracle of Omaha at Berkshire Hathaway when he leaves. The latest candidate? Li Lu, a relatively unknown fund manager whose portfolio has averaged a 24% annual return.
