"Standard and Poors" is a credit rating agency; Standard & Poor's issues credit ratings for the debt of companies. As such, it has designated a Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organization by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
It issues both short-term and long-term credit ratings.
It also publishes financial research and analysis on stocks and bonds. It is one of the top three players in this business, along with Moody's and Fitch Ratings.
It is also well known for its US-based S&P 500 and the Australian S&P 200 stock market index.
" I really took a bath on those S&P (SPX) 1050 calls (options reserving the right to buy particular derivatives based on the Standard & Poors 500 index, as you are speculating that the options are good to buy this is a positive position), after the Nikkei closed 300 points down"

A nickname of the Palantoni family. Contrary to common belief the nickname P-tone, has been in the family for several years, first originating from the eldest son michael. This name has also been pronounced p-tones with an "s" or p-tone singular, either form is acceptable. Obviously the origin of this is from the last name, but specifically the P comes from beginning of the name and "tone" from the second to last syllabal.
"P-tones your an animal" (this was actually said by Matt Crossett at a varsity basketball game, to Michael Palantoni)
