Is there a good explanation for that blurb about equity, in the intro?

No. I deleted it.

"Research analyst" redirects here? Why? It's not necessarily tied into finance.

g whiz. Generally you have to be very quick with numbers, great with Microsoft Excel spreadsheets, have a very solid grasp of accounting concepts and know most of the major valuation methodologies in some detail.
Apart from the fact about excel speadsheets (1), this part of the text needs someone to bring it up to usual Wikiedia standards.

(1) Not to mention that there are a lot of different ways to crunch numbers, not only MS Excel. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rajanala83 (talk • contribs) 19:56, 18 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Deleted the ending reference to a specific book that wasn't actually quoted in the article. Seemed irrelevant. JasonDre (talk) 9:28, 3 March 2011 (UTC)
