Stock Trading and Other Things

I'm interested in buying stock in Samsung, but I'm confused about the stock ticker. Any help?

I found the following stock tickers for Samsung Electronics: SSNGY, SSNLF and SSNHY. What is the difference between them and which one would I invest in?

1. I assume the Samsung that you are interested in is the Samsung Electronics brand you might see on a tv in your house. This is a private company in which stock cannot be bought by the public.

2. One of those is a preferred issue of stock which trades on the Luxemburg Stock Exchange. One is a Global Depository Receipt. The other one is a Pink Sheet issue of stock. I would not recommend buying anything in the Pink Sheets. Samsung stock trades on the Korean and London Stock Exchanges.
