Where does the extra a come from? Usually the ticker makes more sense. If anyone can tell me why there are two A’s, they get one abstract dollar.

Sort of a halo effect because people buy the wrong stock.

Interestingly, my Stocks widget can’t find APPL.

“PC” is in caps because it’s an acronym, folks. “MAC” is also an acronym, but one used in networking which has nothing to do with Macs.

Actually, the one useful thing about people using “MAC” when they are referring to Mac computers is that it is a fairly reliable indicator that their actual experience with Macs is near-zero, and so their (usually negative) pontifications regarding the “MAC” are usually data-and-experience-free “BS”.

Your trivia bit o’ the day!

I haven’t personally seen it referred to as APPL (especially by media) but that’s horrendous and should definitely be corrected.
