The beginnings of a wholly accurate and non-Nyquil-like financial glossary

The Beginnings Of The Best Damn Stock Market Glossary…Ever

Tags: Blogging, Cool Products, TIMterms

No matter how much I try to simplify penny stock trading and relate it to the real world, many of you still don’t even understand the basic terminology. So, for you guys, I’ve created TIMterms, a glossary of commonly used concepts and terms. Be warned, unlike the rest of the stuffy narrow-minded finance world, it ain’t boring and you’re damn right it’s opinionated. After all, it’s far better to have the opinion of somebody with a proven track record than the financial journalist wannabes over at Investopedia who often get their facts wrong!

Here are the first 15 TIMterms, eventually there’ll be hundreds, maybe even thousands of them, all inter-connected with plenty of examples Wikipedia-style, and links to alternate definitions and examples (anybody with a blog or website, def. comment on this post as I’ll link to anything worthy) but gimme some time, I’m not rich enough to clone myself to get all my projects done right away…yet. If I’ve done this correctly, you just need to click on the orange folder above each term to be taken to its definition:

1. ANALysts
2. Buying To Cover
3. Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR)
4. EBITDA
5. EPS
6. Max Pain
