NASDAQ stock (NASDAQ: NDAQ) returned 2.6% in the last five trading days and currently trades close to $196 per share. The NASDAQ Inc., a global exchange group that provides trading, exchange technology, securities listing, and public company services globally, has seen its stock gain almost 48% YTD. The company recently released its August Month’s volumes details, with U.S. equity options gaining some ground, partially offset by a decline in European options and futures volume. Further, the U.S. cash equity volume was down almost 7% on a year-on-year basis, while the European equity volume gained almost 20%.

The exchange outperformed the revenues and earnings consensus estimates in the second quarter of 2021. It reported net revenues of $846 million, which is 21% more than the year-ago period. This could mainly be attributed to lower transaction-based expenses as compared to the year-ago period. Further, investment intelligence and market technology segments reported some growth in the quarter.

But will NDAQ stock continue its upward trajectory over the coming weeks, or is a drop in the stock more likely? According to the Trefis Machine Learning Engine, which identifies trends in a company’s stock price data for the last ten years, returns for NDAQ stock average close to 1.8% in the next one-month (21 trading days) period after experiencing a 2.6% rise over the last one week (five trading days) period. Also, there is a 67% chance that the stock will give positive returns over the next one-month period.

Some Fun Scenarios, FAQs & Making Sense of Nasdaq Stock Movements:

Question 1: Is the average return for Nasdaq Stock higher after a drop?

Answer:

Consider two situations,

Case 1: Nasdaq stock drops by -5% or more in a week

Case 2: Nasdaq stock rises by 5% or more in a week

Is the average return for Nasdaq stock higher over the subsequent month after Case 1 or Case 2?

NDAQ stock fares better after Case 1, with an average return of 6.3% over the next month (21 trading days) under Case 1 (where the stock has just suffered a 5% loss over the previous week), versus, an average return of 2.2% for Case 2.

In comparison, the S&P 500 has an average return of 3.1% over the next 21 trading days under Case 1, and an average return of just 0.5% for Case 2 as detailed in our dashboard that details the average return for the S&P 500 after a fall or rise.

Question 2: Does patience pay?

Answer:

If you buy and hold Nasdaq stock, the expectation is over time the near-term fluctuations will cancel out, and the long-term positive trend will favor you – at least if the company is otherwise strong.

Overall, according to data and Trefis machine learning engine’s calculations, patience absolutely pays for most stocks!
