Understanding Median Value in the BoxPlot for Profit/Loss Made in Stock Market?

I have multiple stocks and I took the PROFIT/LOSS for the stocks and plotted it using a box plot (using python seaborn library). Interestingly the median is seen as 0. So does this means that most of stock is making no-profit/no-loss?



I do know that I am actually making around 40K loss, so this baffles me. What does this mean?

          Title Spacing in Bjornstrup Chapter, Removing Chapter Number From Contents

          Image
          up vote 5 down vote favorite 2 I would like to make it so that the vertical space below the title of each chapter is the same when using the Bjornstrup package (i.e. so that the descenders do not affect the spacing - as shown by the red arrow in the picture below). I think I'm fairly happy with the spacing around "A chapter", so I'd really like titles without descenders (e.g. "Contents") to have the same vertical spacing as "A chapter" below the title. I would also like to remove the large "0" in the contents title. Any help appreciated, as always. documentclass[11pt,a4paper]{book} % Packages[![enter image description here][1]][1] usepackage[left=3.5cm, right=3.5cm, top=4.3cm, bottom=4.25cm]{geometry} usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} usepackage{libertine} usepackage[libertine]{newtx...
