“Wall Street” generally just refers to the financial services industry, usually investment banking in particular. In most cases, people are not talking about the physical street, which in this age is little more than NYSE and Deutsche Bank, but still might refer to NYC (where most banks are headquartered anyway). It’s like saying Hollywood to refer to the entertainment industry or Silicon Valley to refer to technology.
