> indexes changed their rules

NASDAQ changed its rules. Which I’m now 90% sure was a brilliant marketing move, given nobody followed that index until they did this.

I was under the impression NASDAQ pursued it for their exchange business, not index revenue, but I suppose it could be both.

In addition to the IPO, I expect there will be a lot of option and derivative services

But very few 401ks offer the NASDAQ as an investment option.
