Ep 70: SpaceX and the Index Dilemma
About this episode
The episode discusses the implications of index fund rules and the impact of private companies entering public markets on passive investing.
Index funds are often presented as the simple, neutral way to invest: buy the market, keep costs low, and stay diversified. But every index has rules, and those rules determine what investors actually own. With several massive private companies potentially entering public markets, those rules are becoming more important than ever. In this episode, we're looking at what happens when "passive investing" still depends on very active decisions behind the scenes.
