"AppLovin has surged nearly 480% over the past year, driven by strong demand for its AI-driven ad platform. Its Axon 2 engine has powered much of this growth, boosting ad volume and revenue. In Q2 2025, the company delivered its strongest results in more than four years, with revenue up 77% year-over-year to $1.26 billion. With the S&P 500 inclusion, analysts expect fresh buying from funds that track the index, adding further support to the stock."
"Robinhood has gained nearly 435% over the past year. The trading platform posted strong Q2 results, with revenue rising 45% year-over-year to $989 million, ahead of expectations of $914.6 million. Earnings per share came in at $0.42, topping consensus estimates of $0.31. The steady rise in Bitcoin prices has fueled higher revenue from interest-earning assets and growing transaction volumes. Its S&P 500 entry could attract more institutional investors and improve liquidity."
"Ad tech firm AppLovin (APP) and trading platform Robinhood (HOOD) stocks rose over 6% in after-hours trading on Friday, while Emcor Group (EME), an engineering and services firm, also gained 2% after S&P Dow Jones Indices announced the three companies will join the S&P 500 Index (SPX). The additions will take effect before the market opens on September 22, 2025, as part of the quarterly rebalancing."
AppLovin, Robinhood, and Emcor were announced as additions to the S&P 500, effective before the market opens on September 22, 2025, as part of the quarterly rebalancing. The trio will replace MarketAxess, Caesars Entertainment, and Enphase Energy, which will move to the S&P SmallCap 600. AppLovin has experienced massive growth driven by its AI-driven ad platform and Axon 2 engine, producing strong Q2 revenue gains. Robinhood posted robust Q2 revenue and EPS, aided by rising Bitcoin prices and higher transaction volumes. Emcor reported year-over-year revenue and earnings growth with a substantial backlog.
