Definition of 'Z'
A Nasdaq stock symbol specifying that the stock is a miscellaneous entity, such as a depositary receipt, stub, additional warrant or unit. When a stock has a Z after its ticker symbol, investors must do further research to determine why the letter has been added. However, Z historically had a different meaning in futures trading, where it indicated a delivery month of December until new options symbology was introduced in 2010. Z is also the ticker symbol for the home valuation website Zillow.
