The Name Game

Nothing impresses people more than the ability to rattle off a company's name given its stock symbol (or the other way around). I'm not sure why, but they think you must be a real stock picking expert if you can do that. Now there's thousands of different symbols so it would be pretty hard to learn them all. But there's a much easier exercise: can you name all the single-letter stocks? There's only 19 of them - seven of the letters are not in use.

And there's even an online quiz you can take, here:

It's pretty cool. The quiz even ranks your score compared to how others have done. So how to you stack up? I managed to name 7 of them.
