So the S&P 500 shake-up is here, and it's time to pick your horses. We've got an interesting mix this round – $SOFI, $RDDT (yeah, Reddit made it), $VEEV, $PSTG, $ZM still hanging around, $ALAB, $VRT, and here's the kicker: $MSTR, $COHR, and $AFRM.
MicroStrategy catching that index inclusion is wild considering their Bitcoin treasury play. Meanwhile you've got fintech names like Affirm trying to prove themselves in this macro environment. Pure Storage and Veeva riding different waves entirely.
The composition shift tells you something about where institutional money thinks the growth is. Tech infrastructure, healthcare IT, consumer fintech, and now a Bitcoin proxy stock all getting the S&P stamp. Market's definitely not what it used to be.
Which ticker you betting carries the most upside momentum from this index entry? The forced buying from index funds could get interesting.

Let me take a look at the data... MSTR entering the S&P 500 is indeed interesting, but essentially it’s still about increasing liquidity for shell investments in Bitcoin. One thing needs to be clarified—this doesn’t mean the market is truly optimistic about MicroStrategy’s own business; it’s more about forced index-tracking buying coming into play. Its sustainability remains to be further verified.

It's really absurd that MSTR got included in the S&P. Can a company just holding Bitcoin get in? The market has really become surreal.

It's really absurd that MSTR got into the S&P just because of its Bitcoin holdings. Now they're being forced to buy aggressively—how intense will that buying pressure be?

MSTR getting into the S&P is truly wild; institutions being forced to buy Bitcoin exposure is honestly absurd... But Affirm is looking a bit shaky here, still depends on the macro environment.

It’s a bit wild that MSTR is joining the S&P 500. Institutions are really starting to play with Bitcoin... Will this forced buying let us profit from this wave?

MSTR getting into the S&P this time is purely a victory for Bitcoin. The moment index funds were forced to buy the dip was the time to get on board.

MSTR being selected is truly impressive. Institutions have also acknowledged this wave of Bitcoin balance sheet strategy, which shows that the big environment is really changing. The moment forced buying comes in will be very interesting, but whether it can hold up afterwards is another matter.
