NASDAQ FAQS
The Nasdaq is an American stock exchange that began being an electronic value quoter. At first, the Nasdaq only offered quotes of extraburstile values (OTC), but later also became a bag. In 1991, Nasdaq had grown up to 46% of the entire US stock market. In 1998, it became the first US stock exchange to offer online negotiation. The Nasdaq also prepares several indexes, the most complete of which is the Nasdaq Composite, which represents the more than 2,500 Nasdaq values, and the Nasdaq 100.
The Nasdaq 100 is a large capitalization index composed of 100 non -financial companies of the Nasdaq stock exchange. Although it only includes a fraction of the thousands of Nasdaq values, it explains more than 90% of the movement. The influence of each company in the index is weighted based on stock capitalization. The Nasdaq 100 includes companies that are very focused on technology, although it also encompasses companies from other sectors and outside the United States. The annual average profitability of Nasdaq 100 has been 17.23% since 1986.
