<h2>Get to Know Nasdaq Better</h2>
Founded in 1971, Nasdaq is primarily known for its equity exchange, but in addition to its market-services business (about 35% of sales), the company sells and distributes market data as well as offers Nasdaq-branded indexes to asset managers and investors through its information-services segment (30%).

<h3>Financial Insights: Nasdaq</h3>
Market Capitalization: Boasting an elevated market capitalization, the company surpasses industry averages. This signals substantial size and strong market recognition.
Revenue Growth: Nasdaq's revenue growth over a period of 3 months has been noteworthy. As of 30 September, 2024, the company achieved a revenue growth rate of approximately 31.08%. This indicates a substantial increase in the company's top-line earnings. As compared to competitors, the company surpassed expectations with a growth rate higher than the average among peers in the Financials sector.
Net Margin: Nasdaq's net margin is below industry averages, indicating potential challenges in maintaining strong profitability. With a net margin of 16.09%, the company may face hurdles in effective cost management.
Return on Equity (ROE): The company's ROE is below industry benchmarks, signaling potential difficulties in efficiently using equity capital. With an ROE of 2.79%, the company may need to address challenges in generating satisfactory returns for shareholders.
Return on Assets (ROA): Nasdaq's ROA is below industry averages, indicating potential challenges in efficiently utilizing assets. With an ROA of 1.01%, the company may face hurdles in achieving optimal financial returns.
Debt Management: Nasdaq's debt-to-equity ratio stands notably higher than the industry average, reaching 0.93. This indicates a heavier reliance on borrowed funds, raising concerns about financial leverage.
<h2>Analyst Ratings: Simplified</h2>
Analysts work in banking and financial systems and typically specialize in reporting for stocks or defined sectors. Analysts may attend company conference calls and meetings, research company financial statements, and communicate with insiders to publish "analyst ratings" for stocks. Analysts typically rate each stock once per quarter.
Some analysts publish their predictions for metrics such as growth estimates, earnings, and revenue to provide additional guidance with their ratings. When using analyst ratings, it is important to keep in mind that stock and sector analysts are also human and are only offering their opinions to investors.

Nearly four years after pitching for&nbsp;Grail,&nbsp;Illumina finally separated the&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/m-a/24/09/40688420/european-court-rules-in-favor-of-illumina-in-fight-against-probe-into-grail-deal-asks-not-to-pay-478" rel="noreferrer noopener">cancer blood test developer</a>.&nbsp;To expand its reach in single-cell analysis and&nbsp;multiomics research, Illumina <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/07/39714633/illumina-buys-fluent-biosciences-to-gain-stronger-foothold-in-single-cell-analysis" rel="noreferrer noopener">acquired privately-held</a> Fluent BioSciences.
Also in March, activist investor&nbsp;Carl Icahn opted against pursuing a fresh challenge to Illumina&#8217;s board, which spares the U.S. gene sequencing company from facing its second proxy battle in consecutive years.&nbsp;
Previously, Icahn had expressed intentions to remove additional directors from Illumina&#8217;s board, attributing the company&#8217;s substantial market value decline and the ill-fated $7.1 billion Grail acquisition to mismanagement by the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/large-cap/24/03/37671511/gene-sequencing-firm-illumina-escapes-carl-icahns-second-proxy-battle-amid-grail-divestment-effort" rel="noreferrer noopener">existing board members</a>.&nbsp;
Most recently, Illumina reported third-quarter&nbsp;adjusted EPS of $1.14, beating the consensus of $0.88, with sales&nbsp;of $1.08 billion, almost in line with the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/11/n41727185/illumina-reports-financial-results-for-third-quarter-of-fiscal-year-2024" rel="noreferrer noopener">consensus of $1.08 billion</a>.
&#8220;During the third quarter, the Illumina team delivered strong operating results, and revenue met our expectations,&#8221; said&nbsp;Jacob Thaysen, Chief Executive Officer.
&#8220;The near-term macroeconomic environment remains constrained, and we are slightly lowering our 2024 revenue guidance,&#8221; Thaysen added.
Price Action: ILMN stock is down 0.12% at $143.70 at the last check on Monday.

<h2>Unveiling the Story Behind Nasdaq</h2>
Founded in 1971, Nasdaq is primarily known for its equity exchange, but in addition to its market-services business (about 35% of sales), the company sells and distributes market data as well as offers Nasdaq-branded indexes to asset managers and investors through its information-services segment (30%). Nasdaq's corporate-services business (20%) offers listing services and related investor relations products to publicly traded companies and through the company's market technology group (15%), Nasdaq facilitates the exchange operations of other exchanges throughout the world and provides financial compliance services.
<h3>Nasdaq's Financial Performance</h3>
Market Capitalization Highlights: Above the industry average, the company's market capitalization signifies a significant scale, indicating strong confidence and market prominence.
Revenue Growth: Over the 3 months period, Nasdaq showcased positive performance, achieving a revenue growth rate of 31.08% as of 30 September, 2024. This reflects a substantial increase in the company's top-line earnings. When compared to others in the Financials sector, the company excelled with a growth rate higher than the average among peers.
Net Margin: Nasdaq's net margin lags behind industry averages, suggesting challenges in maintaining strong profitability. With a net margin of 16.09%, the company may face hurdles in effective cost management.
Return on Equity (ROE): Nasdaq's ROE lags behind industry averages, suggesting challenges in maximizing returns on equity capital. With an ROE of 2.79%, the company may face hurdles in achieving optimal financial performance.
Return on Assets (ROA): Nasdaq's ROA falls below industry averages, indicating challenges in efficiently utilizing assets. With an ROA of 1.01%, the company may face hurdles in generating optimal returns from its assets.
Debt Management: Nasdaq's debt-to-equity ratio stands notably higher than the industry average, reaching 0.93. This indicates a heavier reliance on borrowed funds, raising concerns about financial leverage.
<h2>Analyst Ratings: Simplified</h2>
Analysts work in banking and financial systems and typically specialize in reporting for stocks or defined sectors. Analysts may attend company conference calls and meetings, research company financial statements, and communicate with insiders to publish "analyst ratings" for stocks. Analysts typically rate each stock once per quarter.
Some analysts publish their predictions for metrics such as growth estimates, earnings, and revenue to provide additional guidance with their ratings. When using analyst ratings, it is important to keep in mind that stock and sector analysts are also human and are only offering their opinions to investors.

<h2>Analyst Ratings: What Are They?</h2>
Benzinga tracks 150 analyst firms and reports on their stock expectations. Analysts typically arrive at their conclusions by predicting how much money a company will make in the future, usually the upcoming five years, and how risky or predictable that company's revenue streams are.
Analysts attend company conference calls and meetings, research company financial statements, and communicate with insiders to publish their ratings on stocks. Analysts typically rate each stock once per quarter or whenever the company has a major update.

밈 암호화폐인 도지코인(CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/doge/usd">DOGE</a>)은 지난 한 주 동안 80% 이상 상승하며 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/11/41876486/dogecoin-explodes-for-86-weekly-gain-what-is-going-on" target="_blank" rel="noopener">52주 신고가를 경신</a>하는 등 가격과 가치가 급등하고 있다.
최근의 가치 상승으로 도지코인은 일부 유명 글로벌 기업의 가치를 넘어섰다.
무슨 일이 일어났을까?: 도지코인은 2013년 잭슨 팔머와 빌리 마커스가 비트코인(CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>)을 조롱하기 위한 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/23/11/36030223/if-you-invested-1-000-in-dogecoin-when-the-meme-coin-launched-heres-how-much-youd-have-now" target="_blank" rel="noopener">풍자적 코인</a>으로 만들었다.
현재 시가총액 기준으로 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/dogecoin-doge-price-prediction" target="_blank" rel="noopener">도지코인의 가치</a>는 477억 달러에서 1조 7,200억 달러로 비트코인을 뒤쫓고 있지만, 그 정도의 가치 상승은 결코 웃어넘길 수 있는 일이 아니다.
도지코인의 현재 시가총액 477억 달러는 <a href="https://companiesmarketcap.com/page/5/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">companiesmarketcap.com</a>에 따르면 전 세계에서 428째로 큰 규모다.
다음은 월요일 기준으로 도지코인보다 시가총액이 낮은 회사들이다.  
<ul>
<li>옥시덴탈 페트롤리엄 (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/OXY#NYSE">OXY</a>): 476억 달러</li>
<li>폭스바겐 (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VWAGY#OTC">VWAGY</a>): 463억 달러</li>
<li>나스닥 (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NDAQ#NASDAQ">NDAQ</a>): 457억 달러</li>
<li>큐리그 닥터페퍼 (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KDP#NASDAQ">KDP</a>): 449억 달러</li>
<li>포드 모터 컴퍼니 (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>): 447억 달러</li>
<li>하이네켄 (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HEINY#OTC">HEINY</a>): 441억 달러</li>
<li>크로거 (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KR#NYSE">KR</a>): 432억 달러</li>
<li>아디다스 (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ADDYY#OTC">ADDYY</a>): 425억 달러</li>
<li>혼다 모터 컴퍼니 (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HMC#NYSE">HMC</a>): 425억 달러</li>
<li>델타항공 (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DAL#NYSE">DAL</a>): 409억 달러</li>
<li>크래프트 하인즈 (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KHC#NASDAQ">KHC</a>): 394억 달러</li>
<li>룰루레몬 애슬레티카 (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LULU#NASDAQ">LULU</a>): 391억 달러</li>
<li>얌 브랜즈 (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/YUM#NYSE">YUM</a>): 382억 달러</li>
<li>세븐일레븐: 373억 달러</li>
<li>로블록스 (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RBLX#NYSE">RBLX</a>): 357억 달러</li>
</ul>
지금까지 도지코인보다 가치가 낮은 15개 기업을 소개했다. 몇 년 전만 해도 장난으로 만든 암호화폐가 포드나 아디다스 같은 회사보다 더 큰 기업이 될 것이라고는 상상도 못했지만, 이제는 현실이 되었다.
더 읽기: <a href="https://kr.benzinga.com/crypto/bitcoin/%EB%B9%84%ED%8A%B8%EC%BD%94%EC%9D%B8%EC%9D%B4-87000-%EC%82%AC%EC%83%81-%EC%B5%9C%EA%B3%A0%EC%B9%98-%EB%8F%8C%ED%8C%8C-%EC%9D%B4%EB%8D%94%EB%A6%AC%EC%9B%80-5-%EC%83%81%EC%8A%B9-%EB%8F%84%EC%A7%80/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">비트코인이 $87,000 사상 최고치 돌파, 이더리움 5% 상승, 도지코인은 $0.30 넘어 20% 상승</a>
다음 단계는?: 암호화폐 부문은 2024년 선거 이후 가치와 관심이 급증하고 있으며, 도지코인은 유일하게 상승한 암호화폐가 아니다.
비트코인은 월요일에 사상 최고치를 경신했으며 현재 88,000달러 이상에서 거래되고 있다.
도지코인은 월요일에 0.3278달러로 1년 만에 최고치를 기록했으며 현재 0.3251달러에 거래되고 있다. 지난 7일 동안 암호화폐가 100% 이상 상승했지만, 도지코인은 2021년 5월에 세운 사상 최고가보다 낮은 가격에 거래되는 중이다.
도지코인의 현재 사상 최고가는 0.7376달러로, 이는 일론 머스크가 &#8216;새터데이 나이트 라이브&#8217; 에피소드에 출연해 밈 암호화폐에 대해 여러 차례 언급했던 당일에 도달한 수준이다.
한편 머스크가 도널드 트럼프 대통령 당선인의 정부효율성부(D.O.G.E.)를 맡게 되면서 도지코인에 대한 관심이 높아졌다.

2022년 여러 거래에 따른 변동성을 방지하기 위해 나스닥(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NDAQ#NASDAQ">NDAQ</a>)는 중국과 홍콩의 소규모 기업공개(IPO)에 대한 심사를 강화하고 있는 것으로 알려졌다.
이슈가 된 사항 (What Happened): <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-06-20/nasdaq-adds-scrutiny-of-investors-in-ipos-from-china-hk">블룸버그</a>는 이 문제에 정통한 소식통들을 인용해 나스닥이 중국과 홍콩의 IPO 지원자들을 엄격한 심사 절차를 펼치고 있다고 목요일 보도했다.
이번 초점은 상장 주식을 판매하는 사전 IPO 투자자들의 신원과 독립성에 있다. 이러한 움직임은 중국과 홍콩의 여러 마이크로캡 주식들이 2022년 거래 데뷔에서 극심한 변동성을 경험하고 상당한 폭락을 겪은 후에 나온 것이다.
이번 강화된 심사로 아직 IPO가 중단되지는 않았지만 이 프로세스가 몇 주씩 연장되어 일반적인 빠른 검토에 비해 불확실성과 비용이 추가되었다. 이로 인해 올해 나스닥에 상장된 중국과 홍콩의 약 20개 기업들이 영향을 받아 총 1억 9,500만 달러를 모금했다.
이번 검토의 일환으로 나스닥 관계자들은 매각 주주들의 배경, 회사 ​​및 서로 간의 관계 및 이력에 대해 질문하고 있다. 그들은 또한 개인 주식의 가치를 뒷받침하는 문서와 구매 과정에서 돈이 실제로 송금되었다는 것을 증명할 수 있는 은행 문서를 요구하고 있다.
이 보도에 따르면 상장 직후 계획된 펌프 앤 덤프(pump-and-dump) 거래에 대한 우려를 없애려면 투자자 독립성을 입증하는 것이 중요하다. 또한 이 거래소는 아시아에서 시작된 IPO의 대부분이 미국 시민들에 의해 투자되도록 보장하려고 노력하고 있다.
나스닥은 <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">벤징가(Benzinga)</a>의 질의에 즉각 응하지 않았다.
이 증가된 질문은 AMTD 디지털(AMTD Digital Inc.) 및 애든택스 그룹(Addentax Group Corp.)과 같은 수많은 중국 및 홍콩 소형 기업들이 거래 데뷔 후 몇 주 동안 최대 32,000%의 폭등 이후 주가 붕괴에 따른 것이다. 당시 뉴욕 증시에서는 대규모의 조사가 벌어졌다.
왜 이 중요한가 (Why It Matters): 나스닥의 이번 심사 강화는 주식 시장 안정과 부양을 목표로 하는 중국의 일련의 개혁과 금융 조치 가운데 나온 것이다. 수요일 중국 증권감독관리위원회(China Securities Regulatory Commission)는 상장 기업들의 품질을 향상하고 기술 혁신을 촉진하기 위해 상하이의 나스닥 스타일 기술 위원회인 스타 마켓에 대한 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/24/06/39399137/china-to-reform-shanghais-nasdaq-style-star-market-to-align-more-with-xi-jinpings-new-productive-for">개혁을 발표</a>했다.
중국의 금융 변혁 및 금융 정책을 위한 일환으로 나스닥의 강화된 검토는 더 안정적이고 주식시장을 촉진시키는 것을 목표로 하는 중국의 일련의 개혁과 재정 조치들과 함께 이루어졌다. 이번 수요일, 중국 증권규제위원회는 상장 기업의 품질을 향상시키고 기술혁신을 촉진하기 위해 상장 기업의 주요 시장 가격 결정 메커니즘의 변경과 합병과 인수를 더 크게 지원하는 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/24/06/39399137/china-to-reform-shanghais-nasdaq-style-star-market-to-align-more-with-xi-jinpings-new-productive-for">개혁을 발표했다</a>. 이러한 개혁에는 1차 시장 가격 책정 메커니즘의 변경과 인수합병에 대한 지원 확대가 포함된다.
올 초 중국은 중국 주식시장의 큰 폭 하락에 대처하기 위해 중국주식시장 구조조정에 관한 2,780억 달러의 구조조정 패키지를 고려했다. 이 구조조정 패키지는 중국 주식시장을 안정시키기 위해 국영 기업과 지방 기금으로부터 홍콩 거래소 링크를 통해 주식을 구매하기 위한 자금을 동원했다.
올해 초 중국은 심각한 경기 침체를 해결하기 위해 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/24/01/36730309/china-weighs-278b-stock-market-rescue-package-amid-slump-report" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-google-interstitial="false">2,780억 달러 규모의 주식 시장 구제 패키지를 검토</a>했다. 이 패키지는 국영기업들과 현지 자금을 동원해 홍콩 거래소 링크를 통해 주식을 매입함으로써 시장을 안정시키는 것을 목표로 했다.
더욱이, 글로벌 투자자들은 중국 주식에 대해 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/24/03/37811837/hope-rises-for-chinas-stock-market-as-global-investors-expect-market-recovery">새로운</a> 낙관론을 보였다. 지난 3월에는 노르웨이의 스카겐(Skagen) AS 및 보스턴 파트너스(Boston Partners)와 같은 국제 펀드들이 매력적인 밸류에이션과 수익 개선을 이유로 중국 주식에 대해 강세를 보였다. 이러한 정서 변화는 중국 주식 시장에 대한 투자자 신뢰도가 회복될 가능성이 있음을 나타낸다.
주가 움직임: 화요일 나스닥의 주가는 0.61% 상승한 58.99달러로 마감했다. 시간외 거래에서는 주가가 0.55% 하락하였다. 나스닥의 1년간의 주가 상승률은 <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">벤징가 프로</a>의 데이터에 따르면 14.28%이다.
