Index rebalancing may sound far removed from retail investors, but it has a direct impact. #Strategy may be dropped from MSCI, facing up to $2.8 billion in selling pressure
In plain English, three points:
① If a stock is removed from an index, passive funds tracking that index have to sell it according to their rules. This is mechanical rebalancing, not a bearish view;
② “Up to $2.8 billion” is an estimated upper limit, not a certainty. The final list is expected to be announced tomorrow morning Beijing time;
③ Volatility can increase around the announcement, so don’t use leverage to bet on the outcome. Wait for the announcement and see. $BTC
