SpaceX will be included in the Nasdaq 100 on July 7th. Historical cases show that there has been a pullback after inclusion.
According to Odaily Odaily, SpaceX will be officially included in the Nasdaq 100 index on July 7th, becoming one of the fastest large IPOs to be included in the index's history. Historical data shows that index inclusion does not necessarily signal a sustained upward trend; in some cases, it has become a temporary peak. After Palantir Technologies was included in the Nasdaq 100 in December 2024, its stock price peaked around the time of inclusion, followed by a correction of about 25% in the following weeks. Strategy also entered a correction period shortly after its inclusion, with a significant pullback from its peak. Analysts point out that this phenomenon typically stems from market expectations being priced in ahead of time, passive buying having already been traded in advance, and sentiment reaching a temporary high before inclusion. If historical patterns continue, SpaceX's short-term performance after inclusion in the index may face volatility rather than a one-sided upward trend.
AI giants like OpenAI and Anthropic are offering startups large amounts of free computing power in an effort to seize market share.
According to a report by the Wall Street Journal on July 7th, as reported by Mars Finance, AI companies such as OpenAI and Anthropic are offering substantial free computing power and discounts to startups to compete for enterprise customers. The report states that Silicon Valley startup founders are receiving computing credits, token usage limits, and auction-style discounts from AI model companies. Some early-stage companies have received over $3 million in cloud computing and token credits, approaching the median of seed funding in the US according to PitchBook. AI companies hope to acquire customers in the early stages of startups, making their tools an integral part of their business as these companies grow. Cursor offered a 75% discount until July 5th; Google Cloud offered up to $500,000 in cloud computing credits to some startups, along with early access to the Gemini model and, in some cases, support from DeepMind engineers. Microsoft and Amazon Web Services also offer special privileges to startups. OpenAI and Anthropic have recently been particularly focused on Y Combinator startups. In May, Sam Altman announced that OpenAI would offer $2 million in tokens to each startup participating in its accelerator program in exchange for equity. Around the same time, Anthropic increased its free token allocation to Y Combinator startups from $30,000 to $500,000, without requiring equity. OpenAI subsequently adjusted its offer, providing startups with $500,000 in free tokens, without requiring equity, and offering the option to exchange equity for an additional $1.5 million in tokens. These offers reflect the fierce competition among model providers for future large clients. Y Combinator runs four cohorts annually, with recent cohorts featuring approximately 200 companies each, meaning that OpenAI and Anthropic could potentially offer a combined $800 million in AI tokens over the next year. Christopher Acker, co-founder of SuperPenguin, stated, "The AI world is being driven by OpenAI and Anthropic because they are giving startups money to pay for usage costs."
