  Definition of Stock symbol
A stock symbol or ticker symbol is a shorthand code used to uniquely identify shares of a publicly-traded corporation on a particular stock market.

 My stock's ticker symbol recently changed, why is this?
If your ticker symbol has had letters added to it such as.PK,.OB or.OTCBB, this means the stock has been de-listed and is no longer trading on the exchange on which you purchased it, but rather on the less liquid and more volatile over-the-counter market.
A stock that has been de-listed is like a baseball player who has been sent from the major leagues to the minor leagues.
For some reason, the stock is no longer worthy of trading on a major exchange, such as the NYSE or Nasdaq, probably because it failed to maintain the exchange's requirements.

As evidence of the status the symbols carry, Goldstein pointed to long- running speculation that the Big Board is reserving two of them -- I and M -- in case NYSE officials ever succeed in luring technology giants Intel Corp. and Microsoft Corp. away from the rival Nasdaq Stock Market, where their shares now trade.
When the NYSE is considering whether to assign one of the coveted one- letter symbols to a company, it considers factors such as the level of activity in the company's stock and the advertising the company does around its symbol, said Culhane, the NYSE official.
One-letter symbols may be prized, he said, but the company's brand is built around its UPS acronym, and using it as its stock symbol just makes more sense.
