ticker symbols differences between yahoo finance and bestinvest
user
it depends on what site you're looking on and what exchange they're pulling the data from. even though funds and stocks are called the same thing, they have different ticker symbols in each country's exchange or could be traded as pink sheet stocks in the us. if a company or fund is based in another country (like canada or the uk) they probably also trade on that country's exchange (toronto or london) under a different symbol. this can cause a lot of confusion when researching these tickers.
