Description
SpaceX officially enters the NASDAQ today β and Tom Sosnoff and Scott Sheridan break down exactly what that means for traders. They walk through the historical playbook for index inclusions, the $4.3 billion in forced passive buying hitting tonight's close, and why this might be a textbook buy-the-rumor, sell-the-news setup. Tom also shares his four trades of the week β a SpaceX put ratio spread, a crude oil short put, an Intel strangle, and a bond call vertical β and explains why he built them with zero correlation across all four. Plus: Greeks, buying power reduction, efficient markets, the World Cup red card controversy, and a live caller who put on a SpaceX Jade Lizard right out of the IPO.

SpaceX's NASDAQ inclusion tonight is the first time a company has been fast-tracked directly into a major U.S. index at IPO-level valuation, bypassing the traditional one-year seasoning rule β and it's already forcing a rethink of how passive funds operate. The $4.3 billion in estimated forced buying from index funds that must own SpaceX at tonight's closing print is a real mechanical event, not hype. At the same time, the 2026 FIFA World Cup is rewriting American sports viewership in real time: for context, NFL football claimed 94 of the top 100 most-watched U.S. broadcast events in the last 12 months β and this is the first World Cup with a genuine shot at breaking into that list. Markets and culture are both in a moment of structural change, which is exactly the kind of environment that rewards traders who understand mechanics over narrative.
