Robinhood Enters S&P 500, Strategy Falls Short

Robinhood's S&P 500 Inclusion: Robinhood was added to the S&P 500 on September 5, 2025, marking a significant milestone for fintech firms and resulting in a 7% surge in its stock price due to increased institutional demand.

Impact on Crypto-linked Equities: The exclusion of Strategy, a firm focused on Bitcoin, from the S&P 500 led to a drop in its share prices, highlighting ongoing challenges for crypto-linked equities in gaining mainstream market recognition.
