The S&P Dow Jones Indices said on Friday server maker Dell Technologies , data analytics firm Palantir Technologies and property and casualty insurer Erie Indemnity will join the benchmark S&P 500 before the market opens on Sept. 23.
Dell and Palantir shares both surged in extended trading on Friday after S&P Global announced that the two technology companies would join the S&P 500 U.S. stock index.
Although the stock market continues to struggle with bearish sentiment, and the weaker-than-expected labor market report failed to ease investors' fears about the United States economy, some stocks have the potential to join the exclusive society of the S&P 500 index (SPY) next year.
