You can quickly switch out imagery without losing its placement and animations by right-clicking on the image and selecting "Replace Image". This will ensure it is placed in the correct layer and location and also apply any animations that were on the original image.
Once you create one question, you can easliy duplicate it for the other sections by selecting all of the elements in the layers panel and use the keyboard shortcut CMD + C to copy and CMD + V to paste.
Each question is made up of 3 different layer groups - 1 for content, 1 for if they answer the question correctly, and 1 for if they get the question wrong. Simply set up the hotspots to show the "wrong" layer group for the incorrect answers, and the "correct" layer group for the right answers.
To achieve the cascading text effect in this section, we created four different text boxes and then used a "Fade in Up" animation with a small delay difference between the objects.
Pro tip: Easily copy and paste animations by right clicking on the animated object and selecting "Copy Animation".

Can you answer Jeopardy!’s trickiest investing questions?
Every prospective Jeopardy! contestant hopes for swiftness on the buzzer, a chance
to charm Alex Trebek and to compete against anyone except James Holzhauer.
But a favorable board tops the list of most players’ desires, with everyone hoping
for the same elusive category: “Things Only I Know.”
In the run-up to my March 25, 2019
appearance on the show, I knew
“Philadelphia Eagles Offensive Linemen
of the 2000s” was probably too much
to expect. My next best hope was a slate
of investing-related questions – ones
that after five years of writing for Kiplinger’s,
I expected to knock out of the park.
Alas, I didn’t get my wheelhouse categories, but even an investing question wouldn’t have necessarily been a gimme for this trivia fanatic. With the help of the J! Archive, I’ve found 9 tricky former investing-related Jeopardy! clues.
We’ll even help you answer in the form of a question.
Get Started
On September 30, 2008 Daily Variety reprised this 5-word headline from October 30, 1929:
In 1972 Edward C. Johnson 3rd faithfully took over from his dad, the 2nd, as head of this big mutual fund company:
Kenneth Lay, of this company, admitted, “In hindsight, we made some very bad investments in non-core businesses”:
A What is Blockbuster Video?
B What is Lehman Brothers?
C What is Enron?
If you hold a bond as its price rises, this other 5-letter word falls, because you’re getting a lower return percentage:
A What is value?
B What is yield?
C What is basis?
From its founding in 1898 until 1919, this exchange was known as the Chicago Butter & Egg Board:

Question 1/9
A stop order would have been acceptable as well.
A market order is an order to buy or sell a stock immediately. A limit order instructs your brokerage to buy or sell a stock at a specific price or better. A stop order, or stop-loss order, tells your broker to sell once
a stock hits a certain price.

The tricky part is that the clue writers don’t have this one exactly right. Alpha measures an investment’s excess return compared with the risk-adjusted return of a benchmark. Beta is a volatility measure that reflects how closely an investment’s performance tracks a benchmark. An investment with a beta of 1 theoretically moves in lockstep with a benchmark. A beta of less than 1 indicates that an investment is less volatile than the benchmark; a beta higher than 1 means a more volatile investment.

Known for its pithy headlines, Variety in 1929 used the showbiz phrase to describe the historic market crash that kickstarted the Great Depression.

to Variety that was added in 1933, went out of print in 2013.

On Beenz.com, users could earn the namesake digital currency for shopping, registering for services or taking online surveys. They could then spend their “beenz” at participating online retailers. The Whoopi Goldberg-touted Flooz.com featured its own currency (flooz) that could be purchased online and redeemed at partnering businesses – the conceit being that customers wouldn’t have to give retailers their credit card information. Both went bankrupt in 2001 after the dot-com bubble burst.

Bonds have two primary roles: income—whether taxable or tax-free—and portfolio diversification. Much of the time, when stocks or other investments struggle, bonds hold their value. But these are complex creatures, and there’s a lot more to know than the current interest rate on a Treasury bond or the name of a big bond fund.
Take our quiz to test your bond savvy—and hopefully to learn a thing or two along the way.
How smart a bond investor are you?

What is the meaning of “duration”
in bond investing?
A It's a rough estimate of how long it will take to reach your goal.
B It's the number of years a bond issuer has gone without a negative credit event.
C It's a measure of a bond's interest
rate sensitivity.
Question 2/10
Duration—roughly related to a bond’s maturity, or the average maturity of the bonds in a fund’s portfolio—tells you approximately how much the price of a bond, or a fund’s net asset value, would fall or rise depending on the direction of interest rates. A duration of 5.5, for example, implies that a fund’s share price would fall roughly 5.5% if market rates rise one percentage point over a 12-month period.

Question
What is an inverted yield curve?
A It means the interest rates on a bond you buy now will decline
or "invert", according to a fixed time schedule.
B It is when Treasury securities pay higher interest rates than corporate bonds or mortgages with the same maturity.
C It's a general description of a wild and volatile bond market and is also known as an upside-down bond market.
Question 4/10
Inverted yield curves are usually taken as a warning that the economy is slowing and may go into a recession. Longer-dated maturities typically yield more than shorter ones; when that relationship reverses, it could be because investors foresee lower interest rates as the economy slows along with borrowing demand. However, there are exceptions, and an inverted yield curve doesn’t always spell disaster.
The correct answer is...

D It's when short-term Treasury notes pay a higher interest rate
than long-term government notes and bonds.

What is a bond’s yield to maturity?
A The interest rate on the bond when it is issued.
B The total return, including the gain on the bond's price, that you can expect if you buy the bond today and keep it until
it matures.
C The interest rate the bond pays between now and the date it is scheduled to mature.
Question 6/10
Although the word “yield” is in the phrase “yield to maturity,” the figure also includes the future gain or loss in the bond’s value to bring it back to par. So it’s a total return calculation.
