I searched deep in the “investment closet” for the most unusual stock symbols. Finding some really fun, I decided to share them with you … hopefully sparking a few laughs along the way! There is no doubt that these companies were surprised when they received their symbol from the exchange. I encourage you to click through to find out what the company actually does (some of them you will recognize). If no link is provided, the company either failed in the last two years or changed its ticker symbol (can you blame them?).
As you read these … Try to think of symbols or companies with fun names that you might know and share them in the comment section!
