Quick Glance: MicroStrategy Stock Surpasses Nearly Half of S&P 500 Companies
- The software manufacturer MicroStrategy Inc., founded by Michael Saylor who heavily invests in Bitcoin, experienced a surge of 204% at the beginning of the year, reaching a market value of over 32 billion dollars.
- The company is currently part of the Russell 2000 Index, where members have an average market value of 1 billion dollars. It is the second largest stock in the small-cap index after Super Micro Computer Inc.
- While MicroStrategy could surpass the valuations of even more S&P 500 companies, its inclusion in the index is not straightforward and could be crucial for the stock price as investors buy S&P 500 index funds.
- To be included in the S&P 500, companies must be highly liquid US firms with market capitalizations of at least 15.8 billion dollars and must meet specific profitability, liquidity, and share-float standards. Currently, MicroStrategy does not meet these requirements.

Quick Glance: New Availability of Grok AI Announced for X Premium Subscribers
- Elon Musk has officially announced that Grok, the AI chatbot from Musk's xAI, is now accessible to all X Premium users. Previously, Grok was exclusively available to X Premium+ subscribers.
- In March of this year, xAI took a significant step by releasing Grok as an open-source project. This move enables developers and researchers to leverage the powerful 'weights and architecture' behind xAI's Grok chatbot for their projects at no cost.
- The release of Grok is under the Apache 2.0 license, allowing commercial use. Reports indicate that Grok is now available on GitHub, allowing anyone to freely experiment with the 'raw' basic version of the pre-trained Grok big language models.
- Grok, the 'conversational AI for understanding the universe,' was first introduced to the public at the end of 2023. The Grok chatbot can access real-time X data, which sets it apart from competitors, aiming to establish itself as a more modern and edgy alternative to other chatbots.
