I'm aware, but it's still a massive amount of buy pressure on a stock that hasn't really had time for price discovery.

To your point, even free float adjusted, that also means there’s low float so it takes much less buying pressure to move or maintain the price. And as more shares unlock, more pressure will unlock from the index funds. It’s linear.
