BTCCSquare news:
Robinhood Markets (HOOD) shares rallied nearly 10% in extended trading after S&P Dow Jones Indices announced the trading platform's inclusion in the S&P 500. The change, effective September 22, 2025, replaces Caesars Entertainment in the benchmark index.
The selection validates Robinhood's evolution from a pandemic-era startup to a mainstream financial services player. Index fund requirements will create automatic buying pressure, with HOOD shares already more than doubling in 2025 to a $91.5 billion market cap.
AppLovin and Emcor join Robinhood as new S&P 500 constituents, replacing MarketAxess and Enphase Energy respectively. The news triggered immediate market recognition of Robinhood's disruptive impact on retail investing.
