SpaceX (SPCX) rebounds after Russell 1000 inclusion forces $3 billion to $4 billion in ETF buying

AI Market Summary
SpaceX (SPCX) was added to the Russell 1000 during the index's semiannual reconstitution, triggering rules-based, non-discretionary buying by passive ETFs. With an estimated ~$100B public float, trackers may need ~$3–4B of purchases to align with index weights, creating near-term mechanical demand and supporting a rebound after a sharp drawdown. The broader critique of index concentration highlights structural risk but doesn't negate the immediate flow-driven impact.
