I've gotta admit, I'm supposedly "intrigued"? Apparently the figure in the picture is Mithras and the bull may hint at sacrificial nature of this cult, some say this is rather the scene of a creation myth though, that the world came out of the bull. Others say the bull is actually a demon.
Apparently this mystery ancient rome cult was all over Europe, much like the Roman soldiers, and there's many places where the same scene has been discovered underground. Including London, in the same street as Thomas More used to live.

We know exactly why that bull was built. Bear and bull markets are based on the behavior of those animals: cautious or aggressive. We know for a fact the origin of that. It is not Mithran.

Well duh, mithra ain't a bull. He supposedly does like killing them though.

Yes, but the Wall Street bull sculpture has nothing to do with Mithras. It is based on the trailts of a bull in relation to the stock market.
