10 best Gifts for Financial Advisors
Bull and Bear Statue
This one tops our list for a reason. Bull and bear have been synonymous with the market since middle-men jobbers sold bearskins instead of stocks. The bull and bear fights were bloody sporting events where each animal had a unique approach to attacking its opponent. The bull thrusts its horn in the air while the bear swipes down.
The movement of the market was metaphorically related to this sport. Therefore, when the market moved upward it was called bullish. When it went down it was called bearish.
This statue represents the constant ups and downs in the market and makes for a perfect gift for finance executives.
