    About

    What is the Nasdaq Composite?

    The Nasdaq Composite tracks every common stock and similar security listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market, roughly 3,000+ names. Because of Nasdaq's historical pull on technology and biotech listings, the Composite is heavily tilted toward those sectors and is widely used as a gauge of US growth-stock performance.

    Origin & evolution
