I'm always having to use a dictionary when reading these; so what is a 'quant' and if you get a lot of them are they called 'quants'?

I thought this might be a misspelling, it doesn't sound right though.

Presumably a 'quantitative analyst' is someone that can count (using fingers and thumbs, of course).
