Major stock exchanges in the U.S.
美国的主要证券交易所。
The two major U.S. stock markets are the New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq.
美国两大股市是纽约证券交易所和纳斯达克。
New York Stock Exchange (NYSE)
纽约证券交易所(NYSE)
The NYSE, based in New York and founded in 1790, is the biggest stock exchange. In April 2007, the New York Stock Exchange merged with a European stock exchange known as Euronext to form what is currently NYSE Euronext.
纽约证券交易所成立于1790年，总部设在纽约，是全球最大的证券交易所。2007年4月，纽约证券交易所与一家名为Euronext的欧洲证券交易所合并，成立了现在的纽约-Euronext。
The American Stock Exchange (AMEX) was once the third-largest stock exchange in the U.S., which focused on exchange-traded funds(ETFs) and was acquired in 2008 by NYSE Euronext.
美国证券交易所(AMEX)曾经是美国第三大证券交易所，专注于交易所交易基金(ETF)，并于2008年被纽约证交所-泛欧交易所收购。
In order to be listed on the NYSE, a company must have upwards of $4 million in shareholder's equity. Locals and visitors can also see the exchange's building on Wall Street in New York City--although more than 80% of trading is now done electronically.
为了在纽约证券交易所上市，一家公司的股东权益必须超过400万美元。当地人和游客还可以看到该交易所位于纽约华尔街的大楼--尽管现在80%以上的交易都是通过电子方式完成的。
National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotation System(Nasdaq)
全国证券商协会自动报价系统(纳斯达克)
Unlike AMEX, the Nasdaq, founded in 1971, is the largest electronic screen-based market and ranked second on the list of stock exchanges.
与美国证券交易所不同，纳斯达克成立于1971年，是最大的电子屏幕市场，在证券交易所排行榜上排名第二。
It is popular because of its computerized system and relatively modern, as compared to the New York Stock Exchange.
它之所以受欢迎，是因为它的计算机化系统，而且与纽约证券交易所相比，它相对现代。
It currently offers lower listing fees than NYSE and is more friendly to high-growth but still unprofitable technology companies. It has witnessed the growth of many tech giants including Apple, Google, Amazon, Microsoft and Tesla.
它目前提供的上市费用低于纽约证交所，对高增长但仍未盈利的科技公司更友好。它见证了包括苹果、谷歌、亚马逊、微软和特斯拉在内的许多科技巨头的成长。
There are other smaller exchanges in the U.S., but most U.S. stock investors trade in NYSE and Nasdaq in which stocks of most large companies can be traded.
美国还有其他规模较小的交易所，但大多数美国股票投资者在纽约证交所和纳斯达克进行交易，大多数大公司的股票都可以在这两个交易所交易。
