Identify the index before using its constituents
Nasdaq is both an exchange operator and an index provider. Nasdaq Composite and Nasdaq-100 are different benchmarks. The latter selects 100 of the largest eligible non-financial companies; the Composite covers a broader eligible security universe. Neither should be described simply as all exchange listings without its eligibility rules.
This table uses FMP's Nasdaq constituent endpoint. Its returned fields identify securities and companies; they do not supply live index levels, prices, market-cap weights or a verified complete Composite membership count. Use the table for discovery and cross-check membership with Nasdaq before relying on it.
Search, verify and export
- Wait for a successful response. An error or an empty provider result does not establish an empty index.
- Search across symbol, company, sector, sub-sector and headquarters. Sorting applies to the full filtered set before pagination into 20-row pages.
- Check the company identity and CIK against filings. Missing metadata is shown as a dash; it is not evidence that the company has no founding or admission date.
- Open the stock quote lookup and enter the symbol there. This table contains no executable price or trading instruction.
- Export CSV downloads all filtered rows in the chosen order, including rows on other pages. Clear the search first if you want every row returned by the provider.
What this dataset cannot establish
Sector labels describe individual companies but do not establish index sector weights. Counting rows by sector produces a security-count distribution, not a market-cap-weighted allocation. The provider's Date Added and Founded fields can be missing and should not be treated as complete corporate histories.
Refresh may reuse a server response cached for 24 hours. Membership changes have announcement and effective dates; a browser receipt timestamp establishes neither. A present-day list also cannot reconstruct the stocks that were eligible for an old trading strategy.
