Palantir Technologies (PLTR), MicroStrategy (MSTR) and Axon Enterprise (AXON) will join the Nasdaq-100 next week, replacing Super Micro Computer (SMCI), Illumina (ILMN) and Moderna (MRNA).
Shares of the incoming trio are having mixed reactions to the announcement. MicroStrategy is in the lead, up 4% at last check, as inclusion in the Nasdaq-100 often boosts stocks due to demand from index-tracking funds, including the ever-popular Invesco QQQ Trust (QQQ). MicroStrategy stock is also benefiting from bitcoin's new record high of $106,000 over the weekend.
