Oct 14 (Reuters) – Morgan Stanley beat third-quarter profit estimates on Wednesday, as market volatility due to the interest-rate decision and the US-Iran war boosted equity trading, while advisory roles and M&A fees lifted investment banking income.

Goldman Sachs, which beat estimates for third-quarter profit a day ago, also reported a similar jump in equities trading.
