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 NASDA 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.
Scitex is an Israeli company run by Shamirs. Their ticker symbol is SCIXF. They make the best high-end color printers in the world. --- Dr.Dimitri Vulis KOTM Brighton Beach Boardwalk BBS, Forest Hills, N.Y.: +1-718-261-2013, 14.4Kbps
