Background -- There are various symbols, some of them (like "SPX") have multiple unrelated meanings. No one-to-one mapping. Not even many-to-one mapping like aliases.
The S&P 500 is often quoted using the symbol "SPX" or "INX", and may be prefixed with a caret (^) or with a dollar sign ($).
"GSPC" is another symbol
