Which company changed its stock-market ticker from FB to META in 2022?

Meta Platforms changed its stock-market ticker from FB to META in 2022.

The ticker change took effect on June 9, 2022, several months after Facebook, Inc. changed its corporate name to Meta Platforms, Inc. The company said the new identity reflected its broader focus on building the metaverse rather than operating only a social-networking service.

Meta’s major platforms include Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, and Messenger. These products made the company one of the world’s largest technology businesses by revenue and market value, although its valuation has fluctuated with advertising cycles and investor expectations.

The company’s principal publicly traded share class uses the ticker META on Nasdaq. The Facebook social network retained its original name; the corporate parent, not the social platform, became Meta Platforms.
