Nasdaq, Inc. (NDAQ): Quantitative Analysis

Nasdaq, Inc. (NDAQ) — Financial Services — Financial Data & Stock Exchanges. NDAQ is in the S&P 500 today. Model factor scores and market data, recalculated every trading day.

So far in 2026, NDAQ has returned +11.0% against +11.4% for the S&P 500 (SPY): total return, dividends included on both sides, from Dec 31, 2025 to Nov 3, 2026.
