Why it matters
The consideration reflects opportunities arising from the artificial intelligence boom. To be included in the S&P 500, a company must have a market capitalization of at least $22.7 billion and positive earnings. If AI spending continues to drive growth, these companies could become future S&P 500 candidates.
