Correct. I added BLL into Fool CAPS January 9, 2023, which is the old symbol for BALL Corp. (ticker BALL today).

I was trying to add it back in mid-December 2022 when it first qualified under the BI rules. I had asked Fool to correct their system to update their ticker symbols to allow me to enter BALL into CAPS. They never did. Then I stumbled on Ball Corp.'s old symbol BLL by chance. I tried that in early January and their system took it and allowed me to enter it into CAPS at that time.

At that time BALL first came into being a BI pick it was trading at $51.65, unfortunately on Jan 9th it was $55.60.
