Sprint Nextel

Today is the day! Sprint & Nextel are now one. The new firm has 80,000 employees. I was glad to see Sprint Nextel get one of the single-letter ticker symbols. The company trades under S, the old symbol for Sears.

If you’re keeping score at home, the only other open single letters are H, I, J, M, P, U, and W. Presumably, the M and I are to tempt some unnamed NASDAQ stocks over to the dark side.
