Check out this graph of UBS prestige level over time.
"I didn't realize you went with Morgan Stanley for the IPO, Pat" - @AndyLouis
"Sorry BOSS, not sure whether we should be bullish or bearish on Twitter, since it's taking a BIG DIP a couple of days after IPO; let me ask my fellow monkeys for counsel! Oops, looks like I accidentally shared this screen with the whole bullpen."
Boss: I hope you don't have too many plans for tonight... Analyst: Oh yeah I do, Models and Bottles! Boss: what?!?! Analyst: Uh... I mean Red Bull and DCFs.
from FB: "Well at least my Model S still works..."
Is that a translucent grey-ish 'joystick' on the table?
you don't use a joystick with your bloomberg terminals? what decade you in?
Unfortunately, the WSO IPO did not go as @AndyLouis had planned.
yeah wtf
That must definitely be the blackberry stock price!
Based on the picture, I believe the appropriate caption would be:
"The graph above represents our performance, which is a result of constantly being on WSO." Maybe not funny, but I think it makes the most sense and fits best with the cartoon. Thank you for considering my entry. I look forward to receiving my prize.
1: Heard about the taper? 2: Already shorting everything as we speak.
"Hey boss, according to all of these WSO threads, your shirt is the wrong color blue, sorry...your Fantex just tanked"
Fed trader (in the future): "everybody would be so mad if they knew that the markets are actually tanking because of how much time I spend on WSO, and not because of tapering."
Well I'll be damned if it isn't Bill Ackman's 2013 P&L
"Do not be afraid, boss! Checking new posts on WSO. Nobody knows yet!" or "Prices can wait, boss! Need to post a caption in new WSO contest!"
Nervous laugh sorry boss, forgot to Alt+Tab.
"..and THAT.... is why Allen Edmonds are the best shoes for banking. Come back after lunch and we'll talk about why that bold-stripe shirt of yours calls for a discreetly colored suit and tie."
"Our exposure to this is catastrophic... I don't see how any of us are going to keep our jobs... Do you realize wha--" "--Sorry, can this wait? I'm trying to get advice on what type of shoe trees I should get for my Allen Edmonds."
"Guy in blue shirt: Until yesterday, Jack Dorsey was a billionaire... Guy in white shirt: Well not anymore."
"Clearly WSO is a bigger deal on Wall Street than making money is."
"An anonymous person on the internet was wrong. That's why I didn't sell, and why our portfolio is now worth monkey s***."
Practice makes perfect. Keep trying while Main st. is still paying.
The London Whale is moving.
"Priorities"
"See, bro? I told you! Bankerella looks terrible naked!"
Please tell me that isn't a chart of our projected revenues for this quarter...
Nah, we are killing it, bro. That's the cumulative wealth of the middle class.
"I hope those bananas you're collecting will cover our margin requirements"
"So... I take it that employee of the month award is out of the question?"
-"Son, you're fired!"
"No no, I had CDSs on our holdings, and if the insurance company cannot pay them back the government will be paying them back."
"Son, do you like cigars? I think it's time we talk about a promotion."
Don't worry. Ctrl + Alt + down arrow will fix this
'Boss, those are your chances of getting laid after you get a wig.....'
"dont worry boss, all we have to do is turn the chart sideways, i saw some other monkeys doing it...."

Preet Bharara's 401k Managers Rich: You know who I think can fix a clusterfuck like this? Jeff: Who? Rich: Future Jeff and Future Rich. Jeff: Good call, we'll let those guys handle it. Let's rank investment banks on WSO.
"Buy the dip...if you don't, you're an idiot."
Analyst: Oh God I am going to lose my job. I can literally feel my testicles shrinking & swinging like a broken yo-yo.
