Robinhood (HOOD) Warehouse rose 15% Monday after the company’s admission to the S&P 500, the widely traced benchmark for US shares. The message was made after the markets closed Friday and will take effect with the index’s rebalance on September 22.
The trading platform, which has seen its share price almost triple this year, has long been considered a front of inclusion. It was one of the three largest eligible companies that was not yet added to the index.
Meanwhile strategies for strategy (Mstr) Gliding lower after Bitcoin The development company was transferred despite the qualification for admission for the first time in this quarter. Strategy issued $ 14 billion in operating income and $ 10 billion in net income for the second quarter of 2025-eye-catching figures that met S&P’s claims. The source of the profits – a sharp increase in the price of Bitcoin – probably did not encounter well with the selection committee, which was certainly aware that BTC can also move in the opposite direction.
MSTR fell 1.5% at the end of the morning US action.
By performing at CNBC on Monday morning, strategy management director Michael Saylor said he did not expect immediate inclusion. “I don’t think we expected to be elected in our first quarter of eligibility,” he said. “We figured it will happen at some point.”
Benchmark analyst Mark Palmer reiterated this mood that writing this strategy “does not need S&P’s approval as a validation of its operating model, as the market scoreboard has already given it emphatically.”
TD Cowen analyst Lance Vitanca called the committee’s decision not surprisingly. “Inclusion was never central to our investment thesis, though it remains a potential positive catalyst,” he wrote.
Some observers speculate that the committee may be hesitant to include a company that is so strongly tied to Bitcoin. Vitanca approached the opportunity directly and wrote: “To the extent that the committee acts instead of deeper, philosophical, political or economic concerns, these may be complied with over time.”
