S&P Global said it is not changing the requirements for entry into its major indices, effectively blocking a swift path for SpaceX to join the S&P 500 after its planned IPO. The decision is a setback for Elon Musk’s company and signals that index inclusion will still depend on existing eligibility rules rather than a special accommodation. Market impact is limited, but the update is relevant for IPO investors and future passive index demand expectations.
