What is Lululemon's stock ticker symbol?

Lululemon’s stock ticker symbol is LULU.

The company trades on the Nasdaq stock exchange under the four-letter symbol LULU. A stock ticker is a short identifier used by exchanges, brokerages and financial websites to distinguish a publicly traded company from other securities. The company’s full corporate name is lululemon athletica inc., but its market symbol is simply LULU.

Lululemon went public in July 2007, offering shares on the Nasdaq. Its initial public offering sold 18.2 million shares at $18 per share, giving investors a way to buy ownership in the rapidly expanding athletic-apparel retailer.

The similar-looking options LUL, LLL and LULE are not the company’s Nasdaq symbol. Another possible source of confusion is the difference between a brand name and a ticker: “lululemon” identifies the consumer brand, while LULU is the standardized trading abbreviation used in financial markets.
