cailianshe news, september 9 (editor: huang junzhi)as part of the s&p 500’s latest quarterly market-cap weighting changes, “ai hot stock” palantir technologies inc., dell technologies inc. and u.s. insurance industry leader erie indemnity co. will join the index.

according to a press release issued by s&p dow jones indices last friday, these companies will replace american airlines (aal.us), etsy (etsy.us) and bio-rad laboratories (bio.us). these specific changes will take effect before the start of u.s. stock trading on september 23.

analysts pointed out that the addition of palantir and dell reflects that technology companies, especially those related to artificial intelligence, are reshaping the market. at the same time, american airlines was removed from the s&p 500, highlighting the recent challenges faced by the industry, including the delay of a large number of boeing aircraft deliveries and rising labor costs.

where do the “new members” come from?

first of all, palantir is a well-known big data analysis company in the united states. its most famous case is that it used big data technology to help the us military successfully locate and kill osama bin laden, the leader of al-qaeda. as a software company that works closely with the us government, palantir mainly provides technical support for the defense, medical and other businesses of the united states and its allies.

palantir's software also collects and analyzes data for companies such as airbus and merck. as demand for artificial intelligence has risen in recent years, the company has not missed the trend. so far this year, the stock has risen 82.93%.
