S&P 500 changes send a higher, lower mstr

Robinity (HOOD) The shares shot 15% on Monday after the inclusion of the company in the S&P 500, the widely tracked reference point for US actions. The announcement was made after the markets closed on Friday and enters into force with the rebalancing of September 22 of the index.

The negotiation platform, which has seen that the price of its shares almost triples this year, has long been considered a favorite for inclusion. It was one of the three largest eligible companies that have been added to the index.

The strategy registered $ 14 billion in operational revenues and $ 10 billion in net income for the second quarter of 2025, striking figures that met the requirements of the S&P. The source of profit, a strong increase in the price of Bitcoin, probably did not get well with the selection committee, which was surely aware that BTC can also move in the opposite direction.

Mstr fell 1.5% in American morning action.

Appearing in CNBC on Monday morning, the strategy CEO, Michael Saylor, said he had not expected immediate inclusion. “I don’t think we hope to be selected in our first quarter of eligibility,” he said. “We think it will happen at some point.”

The reference analyst Mark Palmer echoed that feeling, writing that strategy “does not need the approval of S&P as validation of his operational model, since the market score has already provided it emphatically.”

The TD Cowen analyst Lance Vitanca described the committee’s decision was not surprising. “Inclusion was never essential for our investment thesis, although it is still a potential positive catalyst,” he wrote.

Some observers speculate that the committee can doubt in including a company so linked to Bitcoin. Vitanca approached the possibility directly, writing: “To the extent that the committee is acting on deeper, philosophical, political or economic concerns, they can calm down over time.”
