SpaceX is being added to two major indexes, including the Russell 1000. This move comes as shares of the company experience a slump following an initial surge after its IPO.
The rebalancing is scheduled to take place this Friday, with Trefis noting that investors may own SpaceX stock by July 6. Coverage from Bloomberg, Reuters, and Barron's emphasizes the potential for increased volatility and a clash between short-sellers and passive investors.
The Wall Street Journal and ETF.com describe the event as a historic rebalancing that is expected to surge trading volume for SpaceX and various small-cap stocks. Market observers are watching to see if the inclusion in these major indexes can halt the current stock slump and how the Russell rebalance will impact ETF performance.
