Question 1

How much does Nasdaq cost?

Accepted Answer

Nasdaq is listed at Free (access model: Free Open Access), classified in the "Free" band. No recurring price is published, so treat the figure as an indicative listing rather than a quotable number. Prices are the publisher's own publicly listed tiers as of 2026-10-04; always confirm on their site before subscribing.

Question 2

Is there a free version of Nasdaq?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Nasdaq is classified as free — there is no paywall on the core research.

Question 3

How does Nasdaq compare with other 58 desks in its category?

Accepted Answer

Across the 7 publications in this category that publish a recurring price, the median entry tier is about $29/month. Nasdaq sits at or above that line. Entry price is a weak quality signal on its own: analyst-time products cost more to run than data products, so compare the tier you would actually buy rather than the headline number.

Question 4

Is Nasdaq worth the price?

Accepted Answer

The test is whether the desk produces primary work you cannot get free: its own data collection, filings analysis, models or channel checks. Nasdaq covers Exchange market data & news and is classified as analysis. If you already follow that subject closely and the desk is not telling you something new, the marginal value is low regardless of price; if it is your primary source in that niche, the cost is usually trivial against a single position. This index does not accept payment for a favourable description.
