Asymmetric Changes In Stock Prices And Investor Recognition Around Revisions To The S&P 500 Index

    Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

    Abstract

    This study finds that first-time additions to the S&P 500 Index or its family experience permanent price increases; however, companies upgraded from lesser-known S&P indices, reentering the S&P 500, or dropped from the index experience temporary price changes. These price patterns can be explained by changes in investor recognition.
