<h2>The Significance of Analyst Ratings Explained</h2>
Within the domain of banking and financial systems, analysts specialize in reporting for specific stocks or defined sectors. Their work involves attending company conference calls and meetings, researching company financial statements, and communicating with insiders to publish "analyst ratings" for stocks. Analysts typically assess and rate each stock once per quarter.
Some analysts also offer predictions for helpful metrics such as earnings, revenue, and growth estimates to provide further guidance as to what to do with certain tickers. It is important to keep in mind that while stock and sector analysts are specialists, they are also human and can only forecast their beliefs to traders.

Major U.S. stock markets are set to close Jan. 9 to honor the life and legacy of former President Jimmy Carter, who died at the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/movers-shakers/24/12/42716329/jimmy-carter-the-39th-us-president-who-championed-human-rights-and-peace-in-the-middle-east-had-died">age of 100 Sunday.</a>
What Happened: The New York Stock Exchange, which is owned by the Intercontinental Exchange (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ICE#NYSE">ICE</a>), confirmed Monday it <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/24/12/42717748/will-markets-be-closed-for-former-president-jimmy-carters-funeral-heres-what-investors-should-know">will close markets </a>on Jan. 9 as part of President Joe Biden's declaration of a National Day of Mourning for Carter.
Carter served as the 39th president of the United States from 1977 to 1981 and was the oldest living president until his death Sunday.
"Jimmy Carter, with humble roots as a farmer and family man, devoted his life to public service and defending our freedom," NYSE Group President Lynn Martin said.
Martin said the NYSE will honor Carter's "lifetime of service" to the nation with the market closing on the National Day of Mourning and to coincide with his state funeral on Jan. 9 in Washington, D.C.
The U.S. flag above the NYSE will fly at half-staff throughout the mourning period.
The Nasdaq (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NDAQ#NASDAQ">NDAQ</a>) will also close operations on Jan. 9 to honor Carter's life and legacy.
"We mourn the loss of President Carter and will be closing our U.S. markets during the National Day of Mourning to celebrate his life and honor his legacy," Nasdaq President Tal Cohen said.

Why It's Important: The announcements from the NYSE and Nasdaq follow an American tradition of closing the stock markets after presidents die.
Major stock markets previously closed on Dec. 5, 2018 to coincide with the National Day of Mourning for former President George H.W. Bush. The markets were also closed on Jan. 2, 2007 to honor the life of former President Gerald R. Ford.
The major stock markets close to honor the lives of former presidents and have also closed due to natural disasters and national emergencies in the past.
Markets closed on April 9, 1968 for the National Day of Mourning for Martin Luther King Jr., the only non-president to receive the stock market honor. Markets are now closed every MLK Day, which is celebrated on the third Monday of January.
With the Jan. 9 closure, the stock markets will be closed three days in January: New Year's Day (Jan. 1), the National Day of Mourning (Jan. 9) and MLK Day (Jan. 20).

<h2>Get to Know Nasdaq Better</h2>
Founded in 1971, Nasdaq is primarily known for its equity exchange, but in addition to its market-services business (about 35% of sales), the company sells and distributes market data as well as offers Nasdaq-branded indexes to asset managers and investors through its information-services segment (30%). Nasdaq's corporate-services business (20%) offers listing services and related investor relations products to publicly traded companies and through the company's market technology group (15%), Nasdaq facilitates the exchange operations of other exchanges throughout the world and provides financial compliance services.
<h3>Financial Insights: Nasdaq</h3>
Market Capitalization: Boasting an elevated market capitalization, the company surpasses industry averages. This signals substantial size and strong market recognition.
Revenue Growth: Nasdaq's revenue growth over a period of 3 months has been noteworthy. As of 30 September, 2024, the company achieved a revenue growth rate of approximately 31.08%. This indicates a substantial increase in the company's top-line earnings. As compared to competitors, the company surpassed expectations with a growth rate higher than the average among peers in the Financials sector.
Net Margin: Nasdaq's net margin is below industry averages, indicating potential challenges in maintaining strong profitability. With a net margin of 16.09%, the company may face hurdles in effective cost management.
Return on Equity (ROE): The company's ROE is below industry benchmarks, signaling potential difficulties in efficiently using equity capital. With an ROE of 2.79%, the company may need to address challenges in generating satisfactory returns for shareholders.
Return on Assets (ROA): Nasdaq's ROA is below industry averages, indicating potential challenges in efficiently utilizing assets. With an ROA of 1.01%, the company may face hurdles in achieving optimal financial returns.
Debt Management: Nasdaq's debt-to-equity ratio stands notably higher than the industry average, reaching 0.93. This indicates a heavier reliance on borrowed funds, raising concerns about financial leverage.
<h2>Analyst Ratings: Simplified</h2>
Analysts work in banking and financial systems and typically specialize in reporting for stocks or defined sectors. Analysts may attend company conference calls and meetings, research company financial statements, and communicate with insiders to publish "analyst ratings" for stocks. Analysts typically rate each stock once per quarter.
Some analysts publish their predictions for metrics such as growth estimates, earnings, and revenue to provide additional guidance with their ratings. When using analyst ratings, it is important to keep in mind that stock and sector analysts are also human and are only offering their opinions to investors.

Also in March, activist investor&nbsp;Carl Icahn opted against pursuing a fresh challenge to Illumina&#8217;s board, which spares the U.S. gene sequencing company from facing its second proxy battle in consecutive years.&nbsp;
Previously, Icahn had expressed intentions to remove additional directors from Illumina&#8217;s board, attributing the company&#8217;s substantial market value decline and the ill-fated $7.1 billion Grail acquisition to mismanagement by the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/large-cap/24/03/37671511/gene-sequencing-firm-illumina-escapes-carl-icahns-second-proxy-battle-amid-grail-divestment-effort" rel="noreferrer noopener">existing board members</a>.&nbsp;
Most recently, Illumina reported third-quarter&nbsp;adjusted EPS of $1.14, beating the consensus of $0.88, with sales&nbsp;of $1.08 billion, almost in line with the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/11/n41727185/illumina-reports-financial-results-for-third-quarter-of-fiscal-year-2024" rel="noreferrer noopener">consensus of $1.08 billion</a>.
&#8220;During the third quarter, the Illumina team delivered strong operating results, and revenue met our expectations,&#8221; said&nbsp;Jacob Thaysen, Chief Executive Officer.
&#8220;The near-term macroeconomic environment remains constrained, and we are slightly lowering our 2024 revenue guidance,&#8221; Thaysen added.
Price Action: ILMN stock is down 0.12% at $143.70 at the last check on Monday.
