I was jogging with a friend of mine yesterday, and we started talking about X (United States Steel Corporation), a stock that I personally believe to be underpriced, and then I thought, how many other stocks have a ticker that consists of only one letter, and which ones are they? So I decided to create this list! Without any further delay, here are the stocks with one letter symbols:

Some notes on the table above:

– There are 16 one letter stocks.
– All the one letter stocks are listed on the NYSE. There is not a single one letter stock listed on the NASDAQ.
– Almost all one letter stocks have high volume, with the exception of Y. 4 one letter stocks have very high volume (over 10,000,000 stocks/day), and they are: C, F, S, T. X is also very close to having very high volume.

I wonder if it costs more for a one letter stock ticker. All of the companies above are rich enough to afford it anyway (including Alleghany Corporation). There is not a single company on the above list with a market capitalization less than $2 billion.
