Another possible sticky?

How about an acronym page, too? Common acronym's used in forums, etc.

for examples:

PR - press release
PPS = price per share
RS or R/S = reverse split
RM or R/M = reverse merger
O/S = outstanding shares
A/S - authorized shares

How about starting one for Ask & Bid?
Maybe A & B ?

Good to know. Whoever did the original post, the link goes to a site that requires a subscription... It would be nice if someone posted a few more examples of lingo. I can think of a few: call, margin, spread... I second an acronym page too.
