  • Nasdaq Valuation Bolstered by Fintech Partnerships and Governance Update
    January 24, 2026, 3:07 PM EST. Nasdaq (NDAQ) is gaining traction with a governance update that clarifies board powers and limits officer liability, effective from January 2026, after SEC approval. This change enhances the company's decision-making framework around major corporate actions, potentially influencing future strategic moves. The stock has seen a 10.87% rise over 90 days and a 22.32% return over one year, reflecting growing momentum despite recent softness. Trading near $98 with a forward price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 26.9 and about 9% annual earnings per share (EPS) growth, Nasdaq's valuation appears modest relative to its fintech pivot. A new partnership with Amazon Web Services (AWS) aims to upgrade market infrastructure, improving efficiencies and scalability, which could lift net margins and revenue growth. Investors face the question of whether the stock remains undervalued or already prices in this growth potential.
