Its full name is National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations. It is a platform where market participants can trade in the stock market completely digitally.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The biggest feature of NASDAQ is its fully automated and screen-based trading system, which provides facilities like real-time quotes, transparency and fast execution. Today, more than 3,300 companies are listed on NASDAQ, and its key indices, the NASDAQ Composite and NASDAQ-100 have become major benchmarks for global investors to track US markets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-history-of-nasdaq\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"History_of_NASDAQ\"><\/span>History of NASDAQ<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>NASDAQ was started on 8 February 1971 in America. At that time it was the world&#8217;s first fully computerized stock exchange, which completely changed the old way of trading. In traditional exchanges where trading took place on the physical floor, NASDAQ started exchanging orders electronically on the screen for the first time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Initially NASDAQ was only a quotation system &#8211; that is, it only showed share prices. But gradually services like transactions and order execution were also added to it, and it became a full-fledged stock exchange. After 1990, NASDAQ started growing rapidly and it became the biggest center of the tech boom. In 1986, companies like Microsoft were listed on NASDAQ. Companies like Tesla, Amazon, Google (Alphabet), Meta and Nvidia have since joined NASDAQ, making it the world\u2019s most tech-savvy and innovation-driven exchange.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Read Also:<\/strong>&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.pocketful.in\/blog\/what-is-ai-trading\/\">What is AI Trading?<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-nasdaq-works-inside-the-tech-driven-exchange\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_NASDAQ_Works_Inside_the_Tech-Driven_Exchange\"><\/span>How NASDAQ Works : Inside the Tech-Driven Exchange<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s take a closer look at the key features and inner workings of NASDAQ.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Fully Electronic Trading System : <\/strong>NASDAQ is a stock exchange that is completely electronic from the beginning. Every trade here is done through a high-speed computer system that is, no floor trader, no physical interaction. Due to this system, trade is fast, efficient and less error-prone. NASDAQ&#8217;s technology is so advanced that it can handle millions of orders every second.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Advanced Order Matching Engine : <\/strong>Whenever an investor places a buy or sell order, NASDAQ&#8217;s automatic system immediately matches it with the best available price. The special thing about this matching engine is that it completes the trade without any delay, which maintains liquidity in the market.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Important Role of Market Makers : <\/strong>Many market makers are active in NASDAQ, who continuously give buy and sell prices for stocks. Their job is to always maintain liquidity in the market so that the investor can trade at any time. Due to their quotes, there is not much fluctuation in the price and the market remains stable.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Real-Time Transparency and Data Access : <\/strong>Every transaction is visible on NASDAQ in real-time. Price changes, volume data and news updates are immediately available to investors, allowing them to make the right decisions at the right time. This transparency makes NASDAQ reliable for global traders.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Market Safety with AI Surveillance : <\/strong>NASDAQ is not only fast, but also safe. Its systems have AI-based surveillance tools that monitor every trading activity. If an unusual or suspicious trade pattern is identified, the system immediately generates alerts, ensuring investor safety.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-do-companies-get-listed-on-nasdaq\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Do_Companies_Get_Listed_on_NASDAQ\"><\/span>How Do Companies Get Listed on NASDAQ?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Companies must complete the process and fulfill other requirements given below to get listed on NASDAQ.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\" id=\"h-step-1-meet-financial-amp-governance-requirements\">Step 1: Meet Financial &amp; Governance Requirements<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Companies must meet a number of financial benchmarks to be listed on the NASDAQ. For example, a company must have $11 million in aggregate pre-tax earnings over the past three years or meet strict cash flow, revenue, asset standards, including a market capitalization of $550\u2013850 million. Also, the share price must be at least $4 ($3 is acceptable in some cases), and there must be a minimum of 1.25 million publicly traded shares and 2,200 shareholders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\" id=\"h-step-2-prepare-amp-submit-listing-application\">Step 2: Prepare &amp; Submit Listing Application<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The official process is completed through NASDAQ\u2019s Listing Center, where companies must fill out an online application, including audited financial statements, corporate governance documents, SEC filings, and other required details. Once everything is submitted, the NASDAQ team conducts an initial review and sends comment letters for feedback or clarification of documents; this process typically takes 2- 3 weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\" id=\"h-step-3-symbol-reservation-amp-application-review\">Step 3: Symbol Reservation &amp; Application Review<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Once the application is accepted, companies must reserve their trading symbol. The NASDAQ team assigns companies an analyst who monitors the application process and recommends necessary corrections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\" id=\"h-step-4-get-approved-amp-go-public-nbsp\">Step 4: Get Approved &amp; Go Public&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, after meeting all compliance requirements and submitting fees (entry fee $50\u2013295k and annual listing fee $55\u2013150k or more), NASDAQ gives listing approval. After this, the company&#8217;s stock starts trading publicly on NASDAQ.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\" id=\"h-ongoing-compliance-amp-maintenance\">Ongoing: Compliance &amp; Maintenance<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>NASDAQ expects listed companies to comply with the regulatory and governance standards. Failure to comply with the specified rules and regulations can cause the company to get delisted.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-invest-in-companies-listed-on-nasdaq-from-india\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Invest_in_Companies_listed_on_NASDAQ_from_India\"><\/span>How to Invest in Companies listed on NASDAQ from India?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You can invest in stocks listed on NASDAQ from India by following the process mentioned below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Investing through International Mutual Funds : <\/strong>Indian investors can use international mutual funds to get exposure to NASDAQ-listed companies.
