Hi guys,
I often saw banking executives of Goldman, BofAML etc make a fist during their speeches. Executives in other industries seldomly make a fist. Why is that? Is there a specific reason for this sign with their hands?
Thanks!!

This is, without a shred of doubt, the MOST INTERESTING question ever posed on WSO.
I'm pretty sure it's their silent way of saying. "I'm smarter than you fucking douche-bags, so listen to what I am saying"

Thanks Menascyn!
This was actually a serious question. The way you give a speech is really important in banking I think.
No, it really isn't.
economists also tend to begin their sentences with the word - "so"
