We consider the graded Hopf algebra NCSym of symmetric functions with non-commutative variables, which is analogous to the algebra Sym of the ordinary symmetric functions in commutative variables. We give formulaes for the product and coproduct on some of the analogues of the Sym bases and expressions for a shuffle product on NCSym. We also consider the invariants of the hyperoctahedral group in the non-commutative case and a state a few results.
