Meta Platforms Inc (FB.O) said on Tuesday that its Class A common stock would begin trading on the Nasdaq under the ticker code ‘META’ on June 9, replacing its current ticker symbol ‘FB.’
In October of last year, the firm rebranded from Facebook Inc to Meta Platform Inc, focusing on the creation of the “metaverse,” a shared virtual world that it believes will be the successor to the mobile internet.
Since the company’s first public offering in 2012, the ticker ‘FB’ has been in use.
