They're listed on NASDAQ (CKP). This makes them an American company for purposes of export controls. (This from an employee of Checkpoint who I asked that exact question.)
This is truly bizarre. First, if they were on the NASDAQ, they'd have a 4-letter ticker symbol, not a 3-letter symbol. MSFT (Microsoft) is on NASDAQ. IBM (IBM) and F (Ford) are on the New York stock exchange and/or American stock exchange.
The actual ticker symbol for Check Point Software Technologies Ltd. is CHKPF. Juri Kaljundi jk@stallion.ee
