New York Stock Exchange, NYSE, has for the second time in history become the stock market of choice for Burger King.

The company went public with ticker symbol ‘BKW’ on Wednesday, closing at $15.01 (£9.55), up 3.5%. Between 1954 and 2006, the company has been privately owned, and later listed on NYSE for 4 years before it was sold to 3G capital. At the moment, only 16 % of the shares are available to the publish, since the two main owners (3G Capital and Justice Holdings) are both bound to hold onto their stake for between 6 months and 1 year. In April, the popular burger chain launched it’s biggest menu expansion in quite some time, with new smoothies, salads and ice coffee.
