BlockBeats News, March 31st, according to Reuters, Nasdaq has stated that it will introduce a series of new rules, including expediting the inclusion of newly listed large companies into its Nasdaq 100 Index. This move aims to reduce the time lag for companies to be included in this core stock benchmark index.
With high-valuation tech companies like SpaceX and OpenAI preparing to go public, the operators of the trading platform are seeking to expedite the IPO (Initial Public Offering) process to address concerns over the rapid decline in the number of U.S. public companies.
Meanwhile, the heavy disclosure requirements and listing costs have also diminished the attractiveness for companies to enter the public market. As a result, some large startups, such as Stripe and Databricks, have chosen to remain private for a longer period than before.
