Bloom Energy, Everpure, and Illumina are scheduled to enter the S&P 500 on September 21, replacing Molson Coors, The Trade Desk, and Builders FirstSource. While Bloom’s inclusion is driven by AI power demand, Illumina’s addition marks a significant upgrade to large-cap status following a revenue guidance raise and robust growth in clinical sequencing and AI-focused data services.

  • According to GN stocks/sp500, Illumina is graduating from the S&P MidCap 400 to join the S&P 500, a move that signals its maturation into a large-cap entity. The company recently raised its full-year 2026 revenue guidance to between $4.60 billion and $4.64 billion, driven by strong demand for its NovaSeq X instruments and expanding multiomics initiatives.

  • Zacks Investment Research highlights that Bloom Energy’s Q2 revenue surged 166% to a record $1.07 billion, driven by a 215% spike in product sales for AI data center power. The report notes that ETFs like HYDR, where Bloom is a top holding, are positioned to capture the institutional flows resulting from its upcoming S&P 500 inclusion.

  • Yahoo Finance highlights how Bloom Energy's inclusion is drawing investor focus toward ETFs that offer diversified exposure to the fuel cell maker, citing the company's 166% year-over-year revenue growth and a $2.8 gigawatt partnership with Oracle as key drivers. The report notes that while the stock has rallied nearly 10% since the announcement, its premium valuation has led some analysts to recommend index-based funds to mitigate single-stock risk.
