I currently have a MacBook Pro and it is horrible for looking at financial websites, such as; Yahoo finance, Market watch, etc etc.. It constantly has to reload the page and you are normally kicked from the site. Just interested to see what brand/ model laptops everyone is using, either in school or if you’re currently working for a bank.

Sounds like more of a browser issue. What are you using?
MM banks seem to have Lenovos, but they are terrible. I like my Surface Pro, but its computing power is more limited. It travels so well though.
I am using Safari.
Try Chrome, Firefox, etc.
Got a lenovo Yoga something and it works well. Paid £500 for it new, handles excel quite well even for heavy shit as long as you don’t have 500 firewalls running taking 50% of the memory. It has an HDMI port so I can plug external screens easily if I want to work from home.
Browser issues aside, MacBooks version of Excel is subpar to Windows. You can go the boot camp/parallels route if necessary.
Personally love my Surface Pro 6, can handle 95%+ of the work I throw at it and is easily the most convenient and sleek laptop to carry around. However it can be dodgy when I’m using giant datasets or using thread intensive files. I have a desktop at home for the heavy lifting
MacBook pro with parallels
I like the Dell Precision Workstations! Kinda like Dells Thinkpad.
Thinkpads, t480 for instance
