SpaceX is now lobbying indexes for this

According to The Wall Street Journal…

SpaceX is reaching out to major index providers to discuss how they could secure early admission into major stock indexes before its IPO.

Here’s how any investor can claim SpaceX shares today.

Under the current rules, SpaceX would have to wait:

  • At least 3 months to be considered for the Nasdaq
  • Potentially up to a year or longer for the S&P 500

This ensures that a new public stock demonstrates adequate trading stability and sufficient liquidity to handle the massive capital flows that come with index inclusion.

But SpaceX wants to drive liquidity and prop up its share price from day one…

And so it wants to circumvent the usual waiting period.

If they’re successful, this would create a fast lane for SpaceX and other companies that want to go public.

Index providers like the Nasdaq are now actively weighing fast-track entry mechanisms…

So you’re watching the infrastructure of public markets potentially reshape itself to accommodate SpaceX and other big IPOs.

This means billions of dollars from index funds would be forced to buy SpaceX stock within weeks instead of waiting months or even a year.

That’s massive automatic demand…

And it makes me even more bullish on SpaceX.

Now you could wait for the IPO, or you could use a little-known backdoor to claim your shares today just like I am.

Here’s how that’s possible.
