What is a temporary ticker code change?
Sometimes, a company’s ticker changes only for a short period — usually during a merger, restructure, or deferred settlement. After the transition, the ticker reverts back to the original code.
Example:
Washington H. Soul Pattinson (ASX: SOL) changed to SOLDA during its merger with Brickworks in September 2025.
By 25 September 2025, SOLDA reverts back to SOL.
What this means for Navexa users
If you hold a stock going through a temporary ticker change, you have two options:
If you don’t plan to trade during the temporary period:
You don’t need to change anything in Navexa.
Your SOL holding will stop updating briefly, but will resume once it reverts back to SOL.
If you do trade during the temporary period (e.g., buy or sell SOLDA):
Go to your SOL holding.
Use Actions → Rename Symbol and update it to
SOLDA.This keeps your trade history and performance intact.
When the ticker reverts to SOL, use the Rename Symbol tool to change the ticker back manually.
Key Point
No action needed if you’re just holding and don’t mind a short data pause.
Update the ticker if you’re trading during the temporary period.
