Many people have asked what the impact would be if MicroStrategy were removed from the index. Because many funds directly buy into the index, they indirectly buy the stocks of the companies included in the index. Therefore, if a company is included in the index, it naturally gains significant purchasing power in addition to brand exposure. If it's removed, there will be a significant decrease in buying pressure. So why do these funds blindly buy into the index? The Coindesk 80 and Nasdaq 100 indices represent the fundamental trends of Crypto and US stocks, respectively, as shown in the charts below. Currently, the Coindesk 80 has fallen below its all-time low, meaning that buying now would result in a loss, while the Nasdaq 100 has broken through its all-time high, similarly meaning that buying now would result in a profit. Sigh.
