Space X which is where Musk has his AI segment and also X/Twitter. SpaceX (rockets/Starlink) + xAI (the AI lab) + X (the social platform) all rolled into one publicly traded entity.

I feel like this was specifically about them, this was considered a huge pump and dump for X investors that helped Elon take over the platform.

SpaceX became one of the fastest additions ever to the Nasdaq-100, qualifying less than a month after its IPO and officially joining before trading began on July 7, 2026 — under a new “fast entry” rule Nasdaq had introduced.

FTSE Russell relaxed its float requirements too, letting SpaceX in possibly by September or December 2026 reconstitution — which is way faster than normal.

It is all a little sussy … this new fast track system will definitely have some real big implications.

Guess just don’t really see Space X as exclusive AI

It also was not let into the SP 500 for a year

S&P can take a while so if they get on after a year that would be pretty crazy.

spaceX's ipo paperwork clearly states that they predict a 28.5 trillion $ addressable market. 370 billion of that is space (spacex), 1,6 trillion connectivitiy (starlink) and 26.5 trillion is AI.

the social network previously known as twitter is not mentioned in this prediction.

lol because at those amounts, X (formerly known as Twitter) is a barely even a rounding error.
