It was founded in 1971 by the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD), who divested it in a series of sales in 2000 and 2001. It is owned and operated by The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. (NASDAQ: NDAQ) which was listed on its own stock exchange in 2002. NASDAQ is the largest electronic screen-based equity securities market in the United States. With approximately 3,300 companies, it lists more companies and, on average, trades more shares per day than any other U.S. market. When it began trading on February 8, 1971, it was the world's first electronic stock market. At first, it was merely a computer bulletin board system and did not actually connect buyers and sellers. The NASDAQ helped lower the " spread " , but paradoxically was unpopular among brokerages because they made much of their money on the spread. Over the years, NASDAQ became more of a stock market by adding trade and volume reporting and automated trading systems. NASDAQ was also the first stock market to advertise to the general public, highlighting NASDAQ-traded companies (usually in technology) and closing with the declaration that NASDAQ was " the stock market for the next hundred years " . Until 1987, most trading occurred via the telephone, but during the 1987 market crash, market makers often didn't answer their phones. To counteract this, the Small Order Execution System was established, which provides an electronic method for dealers to enter their trades. NASDAQ requires market makers to honor trades over SOES. On July 17, 1995 the NASDAQ stock index closed above the 1,000 mark for the first time. The index peaked at 5132.52 on March 10, 2000, which signaled the beginning of the end of the dot-com stock market bubble. The index declined to half its value within a year and is still valued at less than half its peak. However, NASDAQ is now the largest U.S. electronic stock market. NASDAQ later pulled its bid, and less than two weeks later on April 11, 2006, struck a deal with LSE's largest shareholder, Ameriprise Financial's Threadneedle Asset Management unit, to acquire all of that firm's stake, consisting of 35.4 million shares, at £11.75 per share. Despite the high tech image of NASDAQ, squirrels have brought down the electronic exchange twice. A squirrel knocked out the power in 1994, and the NASDAQ system failed to roll over to its battery backup, causing an interruption in trading of one half hour. In 1987, a squirrel entered a transformer and caused a power surge, halting trading for 82 minutes. Other instances of downtime have occurred when computer systems have unexpectedly rebooted or software upgrades have gone awry. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nasdaq READER: I'm doing astrological research on the Nasdaq Composite but I'm not sure of the correct first trade date. The Nasdaq website states that trading officially began on 8 February 1971 at 10 am but another source gives 5 February 1971 at 10 am as the open for the Nasdaq. Which is the correct date to use? HW: According to Michael Munkassy: The NASDAQ website lists Feb. 8, 1971 as their first date of trade. http://www.afund.com/afundUSdata.html Stray Rodent Halts Nasdaq Computers, by Kenneth N. Gilpin  NYT Thursday, Dec 10, 1987, p.33  An adventurous squirrel touched off a power failure in Trumbull, Conn.,  that shut down the National Association of Securities Dealers'  automatic quotation service for 82 minutes yesterday.  A Nasdaq official estimated that the power failure might have kept  slightly more than 20 million shares from being traded. [......]  The breakdown was also felt at stock exchanges around the country on  which options on over-the-counter issues are traded  Power in the Trumbull area, where Nasdaq's main computer center is  situated, was restored by the United Illuminating Company shortly after  the squirrel lost its life - and Nasdaq its power - at 10:43 A.M. http://catless.ncl.ac.uk/Risks/5.72.html NASDAQ Computers Crash, Halting Trading for More Than Two Hours By Diana B. Henriques, The N.Y. Times, 16 July 1994 [PGN ABSTRACTING] The U.S. automated over-the-counter NASDAQ marketplace went down for 2.5 hours on the morning of Friday, 15 July 1994 when the computer system died. (It was finally restored just before N.Y. lunchtime.) http://catless.ncl.ac.uk/Risks/16.25.html#subj1 Squirrels again bring down Nasdaq Tue, 2 Aug 94 7:55:36 PDT Nasdaq once again was shut down by an energetic squirrel who apparently chomped on a power line near the stock market's computer center in Trumbull, Connecticut, yesterday. The system failed to perform the automatic switchover to the temporary backup power supply (designed to last until the backup system in Rockville, Maryland, could be brought up), and consequently the market was down for 34 minutes. A similar problem occurred in December 1987. (A 2.5-hour outage on 15 July was reported in RISKS-16.25, due to risky software upgrades.) http://catless.ncl.ac.uk/Risks/16.30.html It was on March 10, 2000, that the Nasdaq composite index hit a peak of 5,048.62. March 24 2000, Nasdaq Peak April 14, 2000, Nasdaq Declines For a Fourth Day On Friday, Jan 20, 2006, the Nasdaq was off by almost 2%, its worst one-day decline in more than a year. Wed May 17, 2006, the Nasdaq composite index turned negative for 2006 Attacks throw Nasdaq out of new headquarters.(D)(Business Times) The Washington Times; 10/1/2001; Glanz, William Byline: William Glanz Nasdaq Stock Market Inc. called the District home since it began in 1971 until it moved its corporate headquarters to Manhattan five months ago. Nasdaq is unable to occupy its new home due to the widespread damage caused by the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks and forced evacuation of the area. But the three floors it leases now in One Liberty Plaza, across the street from where the World Trade Center stood, are intact. Officials at the number two U.S. stock market say that despite the horrible damage to financial district, Nasdaq is likely to move ... April 11, 2006 1:34 PM EDT, Nasdaq Discloses Big LSE Stake - Two weeks after swearing off interest in the London Stock Exchange the Nasdaq said Tuesday that it is in possession of almost 15% of the U.K. company's outstanding shares. May 03, 2006 12:55 PM EDT, Nasdaq Boosts LSE Stake To 18.7% Refueling Takeove - Wednesday, the NASDAQ Stock Market, Inc. (NDAQ) strengthened its position as the top shareholder of the LSE, by boosting its stake in the British bourse to 18.7% from 15%.
