Are special condition identifiers (e.g. AIG+) standardized?

Question

Suffixes indicating class, preferred, new, etc., are well defined for NASDAQ and NYSE, but I can't find anything documenting the meanings of the trailing punctuation. For example, here's some that I saw in today's feed from NASDAQ:

• OHI-D*
• REN+
• RTN+
• SGS=
• F+
• AIG+
• BLL#
• AA-

What you are seeing is the Nasdaq Ticker Symbol conventions for CQS securities. You can essentially translate them at the below link:
