FTSE Russell modifies rules, SpaceX is expected to be quickly included in the index after going public
FTSE Russell has passed a rule change that will accelerate the inclusion of newly listed large-cap stocks into its main indices, coinciding with SpaceX's anticipated IPO in the coming weeks. According to the new policy, IPOs with an investable market capitalization exceeding the threshold of the Russell 5000 index will be eligible for fast-tracking after the fifth trading day following their listing. Previously, qualifying companies were only assessed during quarterly reviews.
Arne Noack, Head of Americas Equity and Multi-Asset Indices at FTSE Russell, stated in a release, "Introducing a fast-track mechanism for large-scale IPOs allows the indices to more promptly reflect significant market developments." FTSE Russell is following Nasdaq's similar move earlier this year to accommodate potential mega IPOs, which has reduced the waiting period for index inclusion from at least three months to 15 days.
