'''Moscow State Forest University''' (MSFU) is a specialized establishment of higher education which trains engineering personnel, scientists as well as bachelors and masters for forest industry, wood processing and pulp-and-paper industry and is the major educational and scientific centre of forest complex of the country.
The '''CNBC Ticker''' is a [[computer simulation]] of [[ticker tape]]s shown on the lower part of the TV [[screen]] on the [[business]] [[television channel]] [[CNBC]] from [[Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey]], in the U.S. The CNBC Ticker shows security and index symbols just like old ticker tapes that received information by [[telegraph]], but unlike those ticker tapes, it is digital.
There are 9 faculties in [[university]] specialized in forest engineering and 1 faculty specialized in electronics and computer science [[FEST|Faculty of Computer Science (aka FEST)]]. [[FEST]] was founded in 1959 on initiative by academician [[Sergey Pavlovich Korolev]].
The Ticker is sponsored by companies like [[United Technologies]] or [[Charles Schwab]], and shows commercial ads from those companies every now and then.
The security identifiers used on the CNBC Ticker are taken from nomenclatures used by third-party companies like [[Reuters]], the [[New York Stock Exchange]], the [[NASDAQ]] or the [[AMEX]].
The ticker is composed of a white-background <span style="background-color:snow; color:darkblue">'''upper band'''</span> and a dark-blue-background <span style="background-color:darkblue; color:snow">'''lower band'''</span>.
