Following elevation to the NASDAQ Global Select Market, the company's ticker symbol remains INFI. Infinity shares previously traded on the NASDAQ Global Market. Currently, NASDAQ-listed companies are classified under three listing tiers – NASDAQ Global Select Market, NASDAQ Global Market, and NASDAQ Capital Market.
