    > Assume SpaceX IPOs at a $1.75 trillion valuation.

Clickbait or ragebait? I'm not really sure which one is appropriate here. Or maybe both?

Like Aramco before their IPO with wild post-IPO valuation claims, I am sure that SpaceX will IPO with a market cap far below this estimate.

Also, will the NASDAQ 100 index really fall apart if they make exception for the richest IPO valuation in US history? No. There, I said it out loud. We also survived the Alibaba IPO, and their financial structure is infinitely more shady/unreliable! Ditto for OpenAI and NASDAQ 100, which will follow shortly after.

The "problem" of a single org deciding the composition of stock indices has been argued ad nauseam for the last two decades in financial media. A lot of sweat (and pearl clutching) for little gain/clarity!
