stock symbol
Exchange listing code
A stock symbol is a short alphanumeric code identifying a publicly traded company on an exchange: AAPL for Apple, TSLA for Tesla.
Also called a ticker symbol, from the old ticker tape machines that printed stock prices.
Symbols vary by exchange—US markets use one to five letters, while other exchanges may include numbers or suffixes.
