Ticker symbols should not be used in article leads if the infobox contains this information. Unless the ticker symbol itself plays a sufficient role in the body of the article, the ticker symbol can be safely removed from the article lead in most cases. The consensus for this practice can be found at Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Ticker symbols in article leads.
