View show details

MSCI's Q3 2026 print beat on revenue (892M, +12.4%) and adjusted EPS (5.11, eight cents over consensus). The decisive item, the full-year expense guide that sank the stock 10% after Q2, held firm, with only interest expense raised; the stock rallied about 5%. Alex and Jordan walk the KPIs: total run rate 3.57B (+12.1%), record asset-based fees of 246.6M (+24.9%) on record ETF AUM, 95.0% retention, and the segment stories: Index at 77% margins, Analytics' sales-versus-profit disconnect, the Sustainability and Climate stall, and Private Assets' investment drag, plus the index tollbooth franchise case and the risks to watch.
