Not saying a non-employee of said American company should use it, but to say it isn't real is wrong. Personally I'd rather have a 3-letter discount code on buying a BMW
Sharon - as I said I hadn't verified it however there are enough 1 letter tickers on the NYSE (T isn't AT&T's booking code either) and as we all know NASDAQ uses 4 letter tickers so again using the WSJ to find the codes isn't a smart move
