Well, it has been rumored that Google can be your very bestest friend...

and it also might help if you mentioned what context/thread you saw the acronym in, cause it might be a misspelling....

It's justifiably immoral to deal morally with an immoral entity.
If you trade based on what other people say, you will lose money. Especially what I say. I won't be held responsible. Festina lente.

I've only ever seen dop use it. Not that there's anything wrong with it, it's just not a common acronym.

BANK is the symbol, it's an index made up of nasdaq listed financial institutions as, most importantly, is not tradeable so it's not unduly influenced.

Good thing to keep an eye on.

I thought it was an index but the symbol doesn't work on Scottrade.

Any ideas?

In case someone else needs this I figured out the symbol for "BANK" on Scottrade.

More important than any of these is ARFIPS, of course, which is the AynRandFan International Praise Society -- it's an International organization dedicated to praising AynRandFan and her brilliant posts here on TF.

Write it down, folks -- this is one you simply don't want to even risk forgetting.
