Cutbacks and shrinking bonuses did Morgan Stanley throw up a pretty major bash for -- retiring chairman John Mack.

Charlie Gasparino has exclusive details party.

Up what Huffman.

You know -- I'm smoking this in commemoration of John Mack -- the fat -- and Morgan Stanley I like John personally but.

-- -- -- -- Just a little bit over the top okay what are they did where's where's -- and the stock -- biggest loser right -- biggest loser today in the financials the major financials right down to just under 6% point out since last year Morgan Stanley stock is down over 40%.

Guess what they did they held this interest in little party inside the firm for for.

For media executives employees.

That would Mack talked about a shoe fetish and -- that it has he admitted to admission finished.

That we wrote about this at all exit follows normal office right.

Are also many as fat hands you know and they -- -- Portugal is very very lighthearted everybody got it but got a big kick but then the after party.

Is what now has a lot of Morgan Stanley -- both current and former really.

I guess the best word as I -- they -- their top because essentially.

They eat they held and so most of a swanky get together act at the temple of danger you know this planks and door -- the net.

So -- get this place -- you get to.

I tell you all in Alexander the Great all we -- we haven't broken down as nice nice we have a broken down into on foxbusiness.com.

In the story that that's Tom I just wrote.

-- when the thing must've cost a 100000 dollars -- the question is should they be spending money out of their own pockets and we here they are spending money on their own pockets.

A spokeswoman for borders and will not tonight is should they be doing that.

As the stock price is going down obviously one of the worst performance -- not only that James Gorman CEO who paid for this event.

Apparently is telling you confirming that executives as we're first to report that -- -- might not get bonuses this year.

Because of the DO the travails of the the company and the stock price the real to -- so the question is should they be spending money on this.

And I think the the consensus is that.

Too little too much back Cadbury well now you weren't here but Fox Business have its launch party at the temple of Denver where -- was that.

Well 2007 planet we have our party this year no way.

A pizza boxes but it was a good point thing with the times right I mean this was right before the.

That's -- -- -- -- point I mean some of this is perception you know and Morgan Stanley is not doing well it's not doing well.

For its shareholders -- again.

They're getting -- wanted to do that it doesn't pass the smell it just doesn't look right John Mack is a great man he's a good friend of mine -- -- I've covered his ups and downs Suez and he deserves accolades he deserves it -- save the firm that some B would say that he took the risk to put in trouble.

But he really did -- defer.

He deserves.

I think couldn't have been an ice event they had that afternoon inside the company cafeteria where -- -- it was invited that would that would suffice instead they go out -- the kind of rolling it.

By doing this thing about -- temple bench while they should go to -- wrote us a steak house.

I -- brutal Colombia despite -- -- a site dedicated to my T -- credit right.

Idiotic I'll tell you go to -- club they stay up.

It's a lot cheaper you're gonna spend a lot less than a 100000 -- on a picture of food and the booze is better and you'll get more good will from -- investors are thank you Charlie I'll I'm no smoking on the sent.

Not let it.

-- -- of being a fat -- closing.
