ANSWER DOWN BELOW. FEEL FREE TO ASK ANY DOUBTS. THUMBS UP PLEASE.
A. UPTO TO LISTING DATE:
When a company is included in s and p 500 index, then the demand
for the company share increases by institutional investors like
Mutual funds.
Hence it drives up its price up to listing date.
The opposite is true for the company being excluded from the Index. Its share price will decrease.
B. ON LISTING DATE:
On the day of listing there can be a selling pressure to cash out
the gains from listing the Index and hence a decrease in the share
price.
Vice-versa, The share which is excluded is available at a discount
& there is buying pressure, hence driving its price up.
