POSITIVE IMPACT
Uber Technologies' potential inclusion in the S&P 500 index could lead to increased demand for the stock from index funds and investors, likely resulting in a positive short term price impact.
Inclusion in a major index like the S&P 500 often leads to increased demand for a stock, as index funds and other investment vehicles that track the index are required to purchase the stock. This can result in a short term price increase due to the higher demand. However, the market may have already partially priced in this expectation, which is why the confidence is not at 100.
