  "account": "SpaceX's stock is set to receive a significantly larger share of the Nasdaq 100 index in September, potentially triggering billions of dollars in new investments from passive funds. With its weighting expected to increase from around 1.28% to 2.82%, the company's presence in the benchmark will more than double. This change will likely lead to heightened buying activity among index funds and exchange-traded funds that mirror the performance of the Nasdaq 100. The increasing availability of SpaceX shares, as lock-up periods expire, is driving the anticipated surge in demand. As the final weighting is determined later in September, Wall Street anticipates a substantial influx of capital into the company's stock.",
