The bull run of the past decade has been headed by a large number of growth stocks. Our markets offer plenty of robust growth names, and most investors typically first look at the Nasdaq stock exchange for such companies. Nasdaq-listed assets represent a wide range of market sectors, including technology, finance, health care, utilities, as well as exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Therefore, today, we will introduce three Nasdaq stocks to buy in long-term portfolios.
Many analysts concur robust names from the exchange have the best prospects for outperformance. The Nasdaq Composite comprises almost all stocks listed on the Nasdaq. To be included in the composite index, a stock must be listed exclusively on the Nasdaq stock market. It should also be a common stock (i.e., not a preferred stock). ETFs are not included in the composite, which currently hovers around 12,500 and is up about 40% year-to-date (YTD).
Another index that gets daily attention is the Nasdaq-100, which comprises shares of 100 of the largest non-financial companies listed on the Nasdaq stock exchange. YTD, it is up about 44%.
By comparison, three other indices that are widely followed are the Dow Jones Industrial Average (up 6% YTD), the S&P 500 (up 14% YTD) and the Russell 2000 (up 17% YTD).

[BUY ALERT] Details on Four Altcoins With 10X Potential
Hello Reader,
I’ll keep this brief…
My new business partner and I have just found four altcoins that are poised for a major breakout.
We’re predicting these four altcoins will blow past the coveted 1,000% over the next 12 to 24 months.
And it’s all thanks to a massive technology upgrade called “The Awakening.”
Virtually every major corporation and government agency is investing billions to prepare for this Awakening.
I’m talking about Apple, Microsoft, Google, Amazon, Facebook, and the departments of Defense and Homeland Security, to name a few.
We’ve located four small altcoins that we predict will be the biggest winners from this technology upgrade.
And if you take a small stake right now, you may never have to worry about money again.
If you want to learn more about the Awakening and details on the four altcoins that could absolutely soar because of it…
Talk to you soon,
Matt McCall
