What is happening

Recent company-specific developments and publisher coverage.

July 18, 2026Nasdaq, Inc. fell nearly 3% on Friday, pulling back from gains earlier in the week as a broad tech-driven selloff weighed on sentiment ahead of its July 23 earnings report. The decline came as semiconductor stocks slid for a second consecutive session and Netflix's disappointing Q3 guidance rattled investor confidence in high-multiple growth names, dragging the broader Nasdaq Composite lower by roughly 1.5%. Despite the session's weakness, the fundamental backdrop for Nasdaq, Inc. remains constructive — the company beat Q1 estimates with 13.7% year-over-year revenue growth, raised its dividend to $0.31/share, and analysts maintain a consensus Buy rating with an average price target near $107, implying significant upside from current levels.

-2.7692

July 17, 2026Nasdaq, Inc. shares surged over 3%, closing near their session highs on roughly double the average volume, driven by improving expectations ahead of the company's second-quarter results following strong June operating statistics that highlighted a record Closing Cross during the Russell index reconstitution. The broader backdrop was also supportive — Wall Street banks posted blowout Q2 earnings powered by record trading activity and investment banking fees, creating a favorable read-through for Nasdaq's market-services and index revenue lines. With a consensus Buy rating and an average analyst price target of ~$107, investors appear increasingly optimistic heading into earnings.

3.1633

July 16, 2026Nasdaq, Inc. surged nearly 4%, outperforming the broader financial sector (XLF near 52-week highs) as a confluence of tailwinds lifted exchange and financial technology stocks. A cooler-than-expected June CPI report eased Fed rate hike fears, while blowout Q2 earnings from Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan, and Bank of America — driven by record trading revenues and surging dealmaking activity — provided a direct boost to the company's capital markets-linked business. Goldman separately raised its NDAQ price target to $105 ahead of the session, and Wall Street maintains a consensus Buy with an average target near $107–$108, implying meaningful upside from current levels.

3.8064

July 15, 2026Nasdaq, Inc. shares declined on Tuesday, underperforming the broader market even as the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite edged higher on a cooler-than-expected June CPI reading (down to 3.5% YoY) and strong Q2 bank earnings from JPMorgan, Goldman Sachs, and others. Despite the constructive macro backdrop, NDAQ faced headwinds from the financial services sector's broader struggles, with XLF also retreating amid mixed bank reactions. Analyst sentiment remains bullish — Autonomous Research raised its price target to $105 with an Outperform rating, and the consensus target stands near $107–$108 — while the company's Q1 beat, 13.7% revenue growth, and dividend hike to $0.31/quarter continue to underpin the long-term investment case. The stock trades roughly 13% below its 12-month high of $101.79.

-1.3451

July 14, 2026Nasdaq, Inc. shares rose modestly, outperforming a broadly lower financial sector (XLF) and the S&P 500, as investors navigated a risk-off session driven by renewed U.S.-Iran military strikes and a sharp chip-stock selloff following SK Hynix's post-debut plunge in Seoul. Despite the macro headwinds, NDAQ found support from bullish analyst sentiment — JPMorgan raised its price target to $112 and maintained an Overweight rating — alongside a consensus Buy rating and a mean price target near $108. Investor attention also centered on a Seeking Alpha analysis highlighting Nasdaq's evolving AI-as-a-Service strategy and proprietary data moat as long-term growth catalysts, even as the stock trades roughly 20% below the S&P 500 YTD. In after-hours trading, shares gave back gains, slipping amid broader market caution ahead of key bank earnings and June CPI data due this week.

1.2829

July 11, 2026Nasdaq, Inc. shares edged higher, buoyed by a high-profile listing win as SK Hynix debuted its ADRs on the exchange at $170 per share — a 14% premium to the $149 offering price — after raising $26.5 billion in what ranks among the largest share offerings of the year. Nasdaq president Nelson Griggs noted the listing is already sparking interest from other international companies considering U.S. IPOs or ADR offerings. Adding to positive sentiment, Raymond James raised its price target to $113 (Outperform), though Morgan Stanley trimmed its target slightly to $112 (Overweight), and the stock continues to trade well below the Wall Street consensus target of ~$108, reflecting potential upside investors are watching ahead of Q2 earnings season.

0.6399

July 10, 2026Nasdaq, Inc. shares rallied strongly, outperforming the broader financial sector (XLF) and the S&P 500, as a wave of analyst activity boosted sentiment: Deutsche Bank raised its price target to $116 and Raymond James lifted its target to $113, both reiterating bullish outlooks. The gains were further supported by the company's freshly published June 2026 trading volume statistics—showing U.S. equity options volume surging to 428 million contracts, up from 389 million in May—alongside Q1 results that beat on both EPS ($0.96 vs. $0.93 est.) and revenue ($2.14B, up 13.7% YoY), and a recently raised quarterly dividend of $0.31/share.

3.709

July 9, 2026Nasdaq, Inc. shares fell amid a broad market risk-off move triggered by President Trump declaring the U.S.-Iran ceasefire agreement 'over,' sending oil prices surging over 5% and dragging equities lower. The decline came despite constructive company-specific news, including a report of record listings, a new credit facility, and strong June U.S. equity options volume of 428 million contracts—up from 389 million in May. With analysts maintaining a consensus 'Moderate Buy' rating and an average price target of $107.54, the stock trades at a significant discount to Wall Street's outlook, though near-term macro headwinds and broader tech/financial sector weakness weighed on sentiment.
