AAA Morgan Stanley Money Market

I have my cash in the above account. It’s drawing an even 5%. I am a bungling idiot about investing so I am parking everything other than what I have in some IRAs and insurance policies here.
So with the doom and gloom being spoken about, how safe is cash parked here? It’s insured to 250K per depositor so between me and my wife we are covered to 500K. I don’t want to think about that case. Are AAA accounts safe?
Or should I divest it to multiple banks?
I know for some of you this is a stupid question but I don’t really know.

What happens if they can't fulfill that obligation?

That's exactly what i'm asking about. How stable is a AAA account?

I still stand by USFR as the go to place to put all cash like this. And it's paying 5.5%.

AAA accounts are fine. MS has 2 banks to work with so bt you and your wife 1MM qualifies for the preferred savings. it's safe and insured by the FDIC.

I appreciate you bringing this to our attention awhile back. I’ve been putting free cash in it ever since.

Invest in some proper tail risk hedge funds.

Well, this is just where I park cash. I'm a business owner and part of the covenants me and my partners have with the banks we deal with is that we keep a certain amount liquid personally. They don't penalize us if we don't, we just get some preferred rates and lending perks.
