Beta to S&P 5000.57
Correlation to S&P 5000.26

The close on Oct 30, 2026, was the highest since our series began on Aug 12, 2024. When the S&P 500 rose or fell 1%, Nasdaq moved 0.57% on average in the same direction (past 252 trading days). The correlation of 0.26, however, shows only a moderate link to the broad market. Accordingly, moves in the S&P 500 explain only a small part of the daily price moves of Nasdaq.
