Twitter said yesterday (Oct 15) in a regulatory filling that it will list its shares on the NYSE when the company goes public later this year, choosing it over the traditionally tech-friendly Nasdaq Stock Exchange.
The filing also disclosed that the San Francisco company’s losses are mounting as it prepares to make its stock market debut.
The microblogging service did not say in the regulatory filing when it expects to start trading, but the debut is expected before Thanksgiving. It will use the ticker symbol “TWTR”.

Both exchanges had courted San Francisco-based Twitter heavily.
