If I read your post correctly, you've got an brokerage account with Morgan Stanley for the assets (stocks/bonds/etc.) which you inherited when your mom passed away.

Customer accounts (and their assets) are safe - the brokerage firm manages them for you (for which you pay them a fee), but does not own them - you do.

I'm assuming from your description of a "broad investment scheme" that the porfolio has different types of investments, which is good. It goes almost without saying, though I will say it, that valuing investments is tricky, all the more difficult in these challenging times.
