Conclusion Questions

1. What are some of the leading non-profit biotech institutes that arent on
NASDAQ? Why do you believe that they are not listed on NASDAQ?
ALS Therapy Development Institute, and the Joslin Diabetes Center. Because
they are non-profit they would not be on the NASDAQ because that is used to
make money and get investees who want money to those companies but these
are non-profit.


2. How do financial markets influence the direction of scientific research and
ultimately society?
The stock market helps fund much of the research going on, without these big
contributions to the research there would be on one to pay those who can do the
research.


3. How does individual product news or world news affect a companys market
value?
Depending on products or research coming out it could make one company
obsolete or in track with current trends and ideas. When these things happen to a
company investors switch their investment to those companies projected to have
the highest return.
