Description is the starting point for any security. For a company it shows the name, sector and live quote, then tabs with the business description, key statistics, its bitcoin treasury (if it holds bitcoin), quarterly fundamentals, a price chart, EPS history and the latest news. For crypto, FX and indexes it shows reference details and ranges.

**DES** follows its [link group](/help-center/roxom-pro/getting-started/linking-windows).

**Aliases:** `DESC`
