S&P Dow Jones Indices maintains existing eligibility rules for S&P 500, blocking expedited IPO inclusion.

S&P Dow Jones Indices announced Thursday it will preserve its existing eligibility criteria for major benchmarks like the S&P 500, including a 12-month seasoning period for newly public companies. The decision prevents expedited inclusion for large technology IPOs such as SpaceX, which would have to wait at least one year after listing before qualifying for the index.
