SpaceX's inclusion in major indices marks a milestone for the space economy but introduces significant volatility risk for passive investors. With a valuation exceeding 100x revenue, the stock's performance will heavily influence the Nasdaq-100's growth factor. The divergence between the Nasdaq-100 (which allows unprofitable firms) and the S&P 500 (which requires profitability) will be highlighted by SpaceX's presence in one but not the other.
