A sword with an up arrow symbol is present under my stamina bar but I have no clue of what it's about. My guess is that I may have a better weapon in my inventory than the one equipped. What is that symbol for?

In case you didn't know, you can press Select (on PS3) or Back (on Xbox 360) to bring up a cursor that you can move around the screen to see a name and short explanation for every icon, on almost every menu and status screen that uses such icons.
Example:
If you're looking for a detailed breakdown of the actual math behind each stat, then:
- That information isn't in the game, in general; and
- You'd probably be better off making dedicated questions for each major stat group that you're concerned about, because there are simply too many different stats in the game to be reasonably addressed within the scope of a single question.
Here is a video describing how to get the Staff of Wisdom. You start at
Dragon Shrine
after the first enemy there is a Pharros Lockstone port. Unlock it to reveal a hidden wall which has the chest containing the Staff of Wisdom.

It's a positive buff, probably it's from the ring dropped by the pursuer which increased physical attack.
