Funny Stock Symbols… good for a lil’ laugh
July 12, 2008
I searched deep through the ‘investment closet’ for the most unusual stock symbols. Finding some really hilarious ones, I decided to share them with you… hopefully igniting some giggles along the way! There’s no doubt these companies were shocked when they received their symbol from the exchange. I encourage you to click through to find out what the company really does (some of them you will recognize). If there is no link provided, the company either failed in the past couple years or had their ticker symbol changed (can you blame them?).
While reading these… Try to think of any symbols or companies with funny names that you may know of and share them in the comments section!
