I've seen news articles claiming that inclusion into the SPX results in a 5% or so pop in the share price within the first couple of days as index fund managers blindly pile in. Witness the QCOM addition to SPX. Isn't it reasonable that index funds will also have to dump shares of GBLX if they're dropped from SPX and that GBLX would drop at least 5% and perhaps more if it panics shareholders beyond the index automatons.
