NASDAQ-100 Index, som ofta är känt helt enkelt som NASDAQ, är ett av världens mest kända riktmärken. Indexet använder en modifierad marknadsstrategi som återspeglar resultatet av en tekniskt tung korg med stora lager som kan skilja sig dramatiskt från index som Dow och S & P 500. NASDAQ-100 är också den underliggande för en av de äldsta och mest populära ETF; PowerShares QQQ ETF (QQQ, B) som kom att bli myndigt i mars 2018 och har mer än 33 miljarder dollar i tillgångar. Det finns andra ETF som är kopplade till olika andra NASDAQ

index, inklusive börshandlade fonder som Fidelitys (ONEQ, B +) och iShares ’(IBB, A-).

Från och med juli 2013 upplevde NASDAQ-100 ett antal neddragningar; flera aktier, inklusive Liberty Media, Starz, Virgin Media, Perrigo och Oracle togs bort. De ansluter sig till en icke-så-elitgrupp av ett par hundra aktier som har sparkats ut av indexet sedan 1995; I det följande interaktiva diagrammet listas varje företag sparkat ut från NASDAQ-100 sedan 1995.
