FAQs - Coherent explanation

Fellow Monkeys,

For all of the Prospective Monkeys out there we've added an FAQ block that goes over some of the most common acronyms and finance lingo thrown around the forums.

The FAQ section is located in one of the blocks on the lower right-hand side of the screen. Click on any of the terms to be taken to a more detailed description. I threw these together quickly so if you see any mistakes in my definitions and/or have suggestions to explain a concept or term better, please feel free to call me out and share a more coherent explanation.

Hopefully this helps reduce to # of repeat questions.

Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, Merrill Lynch, J. P. Morgan & Co., and Lehman Brothers …and sometimes Credit Suisse, Citigroup, Deutsche Bank, and UBS, depending on who you ask.
Why would JPM be considered BB but not Citi (or CS and UBS for that matter)? Even a few years ago, when the definition of BB was restricted to a much smaller group, it was GS, MS and ML, but never JPM.

Also, can we move up the FAQ section above the Hourly Wage Calculator so it's more visible?

Finally, the last section of FAQs (General FAQs) links to the homepage, not the FAQ itself.

 

Voluptate praesentium accusamus et deserunt totam. Adipisci quibusdam totam autem quia laboriosam pariatur. Rerum aut et eligendi magnam. Esse aut omnis mollitia et perspiciatis nam.

Omnis accusamus odio rerum a qui et expedita. Quaerat quaerat et ex omnis sint. Et impedit eos ducimus beatae quo sint dolorum.
