"Ein vierter Quartalsgewinn in Folge wäre der Faktor, der Tesla noch fehlt, um sich für eine Aufnahme in den US-Index S&P 500 zu qualifizieren", erkläre Monika Rosen-Philipp, Chefanalystin im Private Banking der Bank Austria. Ob der Aufstieg in den Index gelinge, entscheide letztlich dann aber noch das S&P-500-Komitee. Doch laut Bloomberg würden die zuständigen Prüfer auch im Falle eines Quartalsverlustes Tesla das Entree in den elitären Kreis der 500 größten börsennotierten US-Unternehmen nicht verweigern.
Die Aufnahme in den Index könnte die Aktie von Tesla weiter beflügeln, weil dann alle Anbieter von Fonds oder Papieren, die den Index abbilden würden, das Papier nachkaufen müssten. "

"... according to the rules, Tesla must also post a profit for the second quarter of 2020, when it reports those financial results next week.
Wall Street, however, does not expect this to happen. Analysts estimate that Tesla will report a loss of more than $377 million for the quarter ended June, according to Bloomberg data.
Still, the consensus view has not stopped some from predicting that Tesla will be added to the S&P 500 anyway, even if it does not meet the official criteria. In a note published Tuesday by Bloomberg Intelligence analysts, the authors write that Tesla's inclusion in the index "may require human intervention," and that they expect the committee that oversees the S&P 500 "to make an exception and add the automaker anyway."
The analysts reason that the S&P 500's recent underperformance—it's down about 1% year to date while the Nasdaq has risen some 17%—is due in part to its lack of high-flying stocks like Tesla and Zoom. Tesla stock has rocketed about 266% so far in 2020, making it one of the year's best-performing stocks. Bloomberg Intelligence also points to a fine-print specification in S&P Dow Jones Indices' official documents, that its committee "reserve[s] the right to make exceptions when applying the methodology if the need arises."
