NASDAQ

Nasdaq is a stock exchange. It's a place where companies go to sell pieces of themselves called stocks. When you own stock in a company, you own a tiny part of that company. When the company does well, the stock goes up, and when the company does poorly, the stock goes down. People buy and sell stocks on the Nasdaq, and if you buy at the right time, you can make money from your stocks.
