An open outcry is a traders attempt to verbally shout either a buy or sell order.
- - - - -
Kind of.
In an Open Outcry system, which is mostly used on commodities exchanges, traders use hand signals to issue buy or sell orders. They scream, too, but the orders are actually placed through the use of hand signals. This is going away, to be replaced by electronic signaling systems. Some traders prefer open outcry; they know the other traders in the pit and how they trade, and by watching them you can tell what to do on an issue.
What is the ticker symbol for General Motors Corporation?
Previous Update
General Motors has emerged from bankruptcy and the new GM is no longer publicly traded. It is privately owned by various interests such as the US Government, the Canadian government, bond holders, and the Auto Workers Union. The old General Motors (GM then changed to GMGMQ) has been renamed and given a new ticker symbol. It is now known as Motors Liquidation Company MTLQQ. These shares represent most of the bad assets of General Motors and GM has said that even with the most optimistic of results little to no value will be associated with these shares.
MTLQQ continues to trade due to the fact that 'Short Sellers' had sold this stock without owning it. So at some point they must buy it back to replace the borrowed shares they did not own. Others are laying in wait for these buys happen and until they do, the stock will have some value. MTLQQ is a liquidation company so there could be some value left after the sale of assets but GM has publicly stated they expect little to no value to come from this process as a shareholder of the liquidation company itself.

It's in a raw state and uniform across all producers.
How did money become the medium of exchange?
Because of its universal acceptance.
Barter--exchanging goods or services for other goods or services--existed before money and it's still used. There are a couple problems with it...the first is the person who has what you need might not need what you have. If you're a barber who needs scissors, you might have to trade haircuts to ten people for potatoes. You'd then trade the potatoes for hams, the hams for beer and then the beer for scissors. You'd have to hire a secretary just to trade all the stuff people gave you for haircuts. The other problem is fractional worth. You make wagon wheels. A wagon wheel is worth more than a haircut, and you can't trade part of a wagon wheel for anything--they only work when intact. To get a haircut you must first sell a wheel for a barrel of crackers, which you can then use to buy haircuts, grease or whatever you need.
Money is better than barter first because everyone accepts it in trade for their wares, and second because you can make change for it. If you sell a wagon wheel for $10, and a haircut costs a quarter, you can take one dollar to the barber, get your hair cut and receive three quarters in change.
