Index

A crypto Index provides a way for investors to gain diversified exposure to a specific basket of digital assets through a single tokenized product. These indices often track specific sectors, such as DeFi, DePIN, or RWA, and are automatically rebalanced via smart contracts. In 2026, AI-managed thematic indices have become the gold standard for passive investing, allowing users to track the "blue chips" of the Web3 economy without manual portfolio management. This tag covers index methodology, rebalancing frequency, and the benefits of diversified crypto baskets.

Microstrategy Checks Every Box, So Why It Missed S&P 500 Inclusion?

Microstrategy Checks Every Box, So Why It Missed S&P 500 Inclusion?

The post Microstrategy Checks Every Box, So Why It Missed S&P 500 Inclusion? appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. MicroStrategy (NASDAQ: MSTR) stock recently met the formal requirements for inclusion in the S&P 500. However, its addition is subject to the discretion of the S&P Dow Jones Indices committee. As per latest news update, it has missed the mark. In Q2 2025 MicroStrategy reported record earnings ( $10 billion net income on $114 million revenue). That’s thanks to new accounting rules for its bitcoin holdings. As a result, it checks all the technical boxes for S&P 500 eligibility. It is a U.S.-domiciled company listed on Nasdaq. It has a market capitalization far above the several-billion-dollar threshold, average daily trading volume well above requirements. Additionally, public float exceeds 50%, and positive earnings in the most recent quarter and on a trailing 12-month basis. For example, analysts have noted that MicroStrategy, “…easily meets S&P 500 inclusion criteria in terms of market cap and trading volume.” Its new reporting treatment of bitcoin should allow it to “immediately begin reporting positive earnings.” Inclusion Criteria and Timeline S&P 500 membership is governed by published criteria and quarterly review windows. MicroStrategy meets or exceeds each of these: its market cap is well above the threshold, trading volumes are robust, and it reported positive net income in Q2 2025 (unlike prior years) under the new FASB rules. The timing of any change is well-defined: S&P Dow Jones Indices updates the S&P 500 four times a year. Usually, this happens in March, June, September, and December. Changes are announced on the second Friday of the quarter and become effective after trading closes the following Friday. And per the announcement, the S&P 500 has decided not to include MicroStrategy. According to analyst observations, inconsistency is a likely factor behind this decision.

MSTR falls 2.9% after S&P 500 snub, Robinhood makes the cut

MSTR falls 2.9% after S&P 500 snub, Robinhood makes the cut

The post MSTR falls 2.9% after S&P 500 snub, Robinhood makes the cut appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Journalist Posted: September 6, 2025 Key Takeaways MSTR may be included in the S&P 500 Index in December, according to analysts. Strategy downplayed the impact of Nasdaq’s capital-raising restrictions for crypto firms. Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) stock, MSTR, was snubbed by the coveted S&P 500 Index, triggering a 2.9% price decline after market hours on the 5th of September. Instead, Robinhood beat MSTR to the index.   The market had anticipated that the leading Bitcoin corporate treasury holder would be included in the index, especially since it met all the necessary criteria. However, those expectations were disappointed, and as a result, MSTR dropped to $326 following the announcement. Source: Google Finance Will December favor MSTR? Some of the inclusion requirements for the equity index include massive liquidity depth and being profitable for the past four quarters.  But above all, the index’s ‘secret’ committee handling the inclusion process has the final say, noted a Bloomberg ETF analyst.  “Why wasn’t $MSTR allowed into the S&P 500 Index despite meeting all the criteria? Because the ‘Committee’ said no.” Now, some community members were pessimistic about MSTR’s chances of getting into the index during the next rebalancing window in December. But James Van Straten, a CoinDesk analyst, made a contrarian bet.  “December it is for MSTR, same setup as Tesla.” The inclusion would expand institutional investor interest and ETFs for MSTR. In response, Michael Saylor, Founder of Strategy, slammed the index in a subtle X (formerly Twitter) post, comparing MSTR vs S&P 500 Index (SPY) returns.  “Thinking about the S&P right now…” Source: X Both MSTR and BTC outperformed SPY on annualized returns, per the chart shared by Saylor.  Another hiccup for the firm was the recent Nasdaq proposal that some analysts claim may force crypto treasuries to get shareholders’ approval before raising capital. However, the…

Next week's macroeconomic outlook: interest rate cuts are no longer a problem, and CPI data may stimulate a 50 basis point drop

Next week's macroeconomic outlook: interest rate cuts are no longer a problem, and CPI data may stimulate a 50 basis point drop

PANews reported on September 6th that this week saw volatile financial markets. Expectations of a Federal Reserve rate cut rose, fueled by disappointing US non-farm payroll data. US stocks and cryptocurrencies remained volatile, but next week could prove crucial. Looking ahead, investors will be closely watching CPI data, which could influence the Fed's rate cut path, the European Central Bank's interest rate decision, and the release of key candidates for the next Fed chair. The following are key market observations for the coming week: At 23:00 on Monday, the New York Fed’s one-year inflation forecast for August; At 22:00 on Tuesday, the preliminary value of the benchmark change in non-farm employment in the United States in 2025 will be released; At 09:30 on Wednesday, China’s August CPI annual rate will be released; At 20:30 on Wednesday, the U.S. PPI data for August will be released; At 20:15 on Thursday, the European Central Bank announced its interest rate decision; At 20:30 on Thursday, the US August CPI data and the number of initial jobless claims in the US for the week ending September 6 will be released; At 20:45 on Thursday, European Central Bank President Lagarde held a monetary policy press conference; At 22:00 on Friday, the preliminary value of the US one-year inflation rate forecast for September and the preliminary value of the University of Michigan Consumer Confidence Index for September will be released. A quarter-point rate cut by the Federal Reserve at its September meeting is all but certain. Less uncertain is the pace of subsequent cuts, with some market pundits betting on a surprise 50-basis-point cut on September 17.

Why MicroStrategy Missed Out On S&P 500 Milestone

Why MicroStrategy Missed Out On S&P 500 Milestone

The post Why MicroStrategy Missed Out On S&P 500 Milestone appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Strategy, formerly known as MicroStrategy, has built its reputation as the world’s largest corporate Bitcoin holder, yet the company was left out of the S&P 500 during the latest rebalancing. The decision surprised many in the crypto community, who expected the Michael Saylor–led firm to join the ranks of America’s most valuable companies. Notably, crypto trading platform Robinhood was included in the index. Sponsored Sponsored Why Did Strategy Miss Out on S&P 500 Inclusion? The S&P Dow Jones Indices does not disclose why specific firms are excluded, but its criteria require that companies post positive earnings over the last four quarters, including the latest quarter. Strategy’s financial record does not meet that bar. Since pivoting to Bitcoin in 2020, the company’s results have swung sharply depending on BTC’s price. Sponsored Sponsored In the second quarter of this year, rising Bitcoin valuations pushed Strategy’s net profit above $10 billion. However, just one quarter earlier, a BTC slump forced the firm to record a $4.2 billion net loss. This inconsistency likely factored into the decision to exclude the stock despite its market capitalization and trading volume. “MicroStrategy’s financials are dominated by unrealized gains/losses on Bitcoin holdings, which swing its income from big profits to big losses quarter by quarter,” crypto analyst Vincent Van Code said on X. Indeed, Strategy’s potential addition to the S&P 500 carries weight beyond prestige. The index anchors trillions of dollars in institutional funds and ETFs, meaning inclusion often sparks additional buying pressure. Strategy, which currently holds 636,505 BTC in its corporate treasury, could use that recognition to attract more mainstream investors to the emerging industry. Considering this, some crypto community members argue that the index should adapt to the new financial reality Bitcoin represents. Sponsored Sponsored “S&P 500 needs MSTR, MSTR doesn’t need S&P 500. Bitcoin deserves…
