Market pricing will be interesting. People have been complaining about TLSA being over priced for years and now it's 2%+ of the S&P. Are people selling VOO and VTI because of the TSLA allocation? Nope, in fact TSLA has made them all a lot of money.

People were falling over themselves to invest in these AI companies and SpaceX not that long ago. 75B worth of SpaceX now has to get sold to IPO investors to hit the desired valuation. People say a lot (especially on the internet), but when the rubber meets the road we'll see what people do with their money.

The other bind the S&P is caught in is if these AI stocks IPO and then moonshot before they get added. The question will then be is the S&P an antiquated index? How do multiple trillion dollar companies in the market not end up in the S&P 500 sooner? No one thinks of that case because everyone is so sure they are all going to zero.
