Best Answer

The NASDAQ is a stock exchange.

It would be like NASDAQ is to Stock Exchange as Yankees is to Baseball Team.

The term STOCK MARKET generally is used to describe a group of exchanges, but that is a loose usage.

For example, a friend my say, "I work on the Stock Market" or "At the Stock Market", but saying I work on the NASDAQ gives you more specific info on exactly what exchange on the Stock Market.
