## Resource

This week, Sim breaks down the major changes coming to popular index funds like the S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 ahead of high-profile IPOs from companies such as SpaceX, OpenAI, and Anthropic. She explains how private markets have transformed investing, why index providers are changing their rules, and what these updates could mean for long-term investors. Sim also explores the risks, opportunities, and whether you should change your investing strategy or continue dollar-cost averaging through the noise.
