Does anyone know if this, like the spacex/xAI stock — will list on nasdaq? And will it be part of every market cap weighted index fund like VOO(S&P) etc or just for nasdax-100 etfs?

The exchanges are bending head over heels to accommodate these IPOs[1] and make our retirement index funds the exit-liquidity strategy to the thievery of pump and dump actors that buy it low and then sell high? As i understand the way thievery works is:

1. List at many multiples of market valuation on an exchange. So if you company is just 10 billion$ nasdaq and theives collude and say "can make it 100 billion..".

2. Lots of institutional investors and rich billionaires get stock options.

3. All market weighted index funds — aka all *your* low expense ratio ETF money — have to re-balance and buy them, raising their value: the exit-liquidity event

4. Rich A**** get richer by making an profit by selling higher.

It does seem likely. Iirc SpaceX wants to waive the year long holding period before their stock enters the indexes.

Which to me seems like a very naked attempt at getting 401k to bag hold

They are pushing hard to be part of the nasdaq 100. You can shift your retirement funds from the nasdaq to the Dow or s&p
