NASDAQ founded in 1971 made it possible for young, high risk companies to go public creating a role for venture capitalists. Early venture capitalists included Queen Isabella of Spain who funded Christopher Columbus' voyage to the new world and banker JP Morgan who funded Thomas Edison and the electric light. On the NASDAQ, high risk ventures in Silicon Valley could be shared with investors on main street accelerating America's growth.
Early Wall Street bankers could never have imagined the many different investment vehicles now connecting Main Street and Wall Street. People of varied age and backgrounds all come to Wall Street with the same dream. Modern investing is comprised of an important list of investment vehicles for turning risk to reward.
