Today, the HN community is buzzing again about some gossip regarding SpaceX going public. It’s got 701 upvotes and 339 comments—talk about hype!
In simple terms, the S&P Dow Jones Index, the barometer of Wall Street, is like the holy grail for listed companies trying to get in. They previously hinted at possibly allowing mega-IPOs like SpaceX to enter the index more swiftly after going public. But now, they've decided to stick to the old rules.
What does this mean? Even if SpaceX, this pre-IPO giant, goes public, it won't have the luxury of a fast track into the index. They’ll have to play by the rules and wait it out—no jumping on that "immediate buy buy buy from big funds" express train. This move has left a lot of eager capital and onlookers scratching their heads, feeling like the new kids just got a bucket of cold water thrown on them.
Is this move prudent or just plain conservative? Here’s the link for you to check out yourself, don’t just take my word for it.
