GameStop is an American company that deals in video games gaming merchandise retailing, and consumer electronics. GameStop was dropped from the s&p 500 index in 2016. As of the close of the market on Wednesday, September 1 2021, GameStop had a market capitalization of $15.841 billion which is above the minimum capitalization required to be eligible for inclusion in the s&p 500 index. Game stop is highly liquid based on the number of it's shares traded in the last six months.
I think having that much capitalization isn't really going to be enough to be included in S&P500. I think the people working in S&P500 is smart enough to know that gamestop stocks are basically worthless and was just pumped to get at the current price level. As of now, there's only been negative news that is showing that its market is bad so I don't think gamestop will last that long to be included in the index.
