Pinpoint #552 gives you five clues, one at a time; the fewer you need, the better your score. The first two clues, "Cargo ships" and "Wrestling matches", already narrow it a lot if you ask what they have in common beyond the obvious.

Ask what "Cargo ships", "Wrestling matches" and "Climbing walls" could all be examples of.

The category is 3 words long and starts with "T".

Hint 3 — nearly there

The last clue, "Phone calls (“please wait!”)", makes it explicit: think holds.

  1. Cargo ships
  2. Wrestling matches
  3. Climbing walls
  4. Bank accounts (after big deposits)
