I don't know, but I seem to remember that everything is worth about 13 T, and NSYE is maybe 6 and Nasdaq maybe 5. MSFT is .5, CSCO, .45, INTC .4 so the top three Nasdaq is 1.35 trillion. The biggest NSSE is GE at .4 T or so. Naz is loaded with 10B companies (Qcom, JDSU, etc.) with more springing up every day. There are many nearly worthless Nasdaq companies, but every week some of them sprout like asparagus and increase in value markedly. Meanwhile big dumb Old Economy companies on NYSE go up in flames. It's just that Nasdaq accepts new companies, and NYSE keeps old ones. Intel is Nasdaq #1 (in 1971). Born in 1968 it was too young to be admitted to NYSE (which has reserved for it the symbol "I"). Now its the fashionable place to be. NDA = Non Disclosure Agreement.
