Topic: Ticker symbol



  
 Ticker symbol - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In the United States, modern letter-only ticker symbols were developed by Standard and Poor's (SandP) to bring a national standard to investing.
The SandP system was later standardized by the securities industry and modified as years passed.
These letter counts apply to the underlying company, but not always to the entire stock symbol.

 HELP: Ticker Symbol
A ticker symbol is a shorthand representation of a stock, Global Depository Receipt (GDR), fund, option, index, or other security which uniquely identifies that issue.
If the characters you enter are not a valid ticker symbol or are not found in that server's database, the market price will be reported as zero.
