| Stock Ticker Symbols Can Reveal a Lot About the Company! - Sometimes, you will come accross stock symbols |
Page 2 of 2 Sometimes, you will come accross stock symbols that have five letters. Why this is done? This is an important clue for the investors that something is going on with that company that is not good and beyond the norm. For example, if you see the stock symbol for Microsoft listed as MSFTE, it means that the Microsoft Company is delinquent in filing with SEC meaning that the company's financial health is questionable. NYSE doesn't give detailed information about it's companies through their stock ticker symbols. Penny stocks that trade on pink sheets or OTCBB ( Over the Counter Bulletin Board) also add a fifth letter code to the stock symbol whenever applicable. NYSE does not add an additional letter to its three letter stock symbol. What NYSE does is to use behind the dot codes that follow the regular symbol.
