The clarification affects major indices including the S&P Composite 1500, S&P 500, S&P 400, S&P 600, and Dow Jones U.S. Total Stock Market Index.

Insights
This clarification of the float-adjusted liquidity ratio (FALR) methodology represents a significant technical update for index composition calculations. The key modification specifies that "all publicly reported U.S. consolidated volume" will be used in FALR calculations, providing greater transparency in how stocks qualify for major indices like the S&P 500, S&P 400 and S&P 600.
While no immediate constituent changes will occur, this clarification could impact future index inclusion decisions, particularly for companies near the liquidity threshold of 0.1 FALR. The specification that dark pool trading volume is excluded from calculations maintains the focus on publicly visible trading activity, which is important for index integrity and transparency.
For institutional investors and index funds tracking these benchmarks, this technical clarification provides better visibility into index methodology and could influence portfolio rebalancing strategies. The impact on SPGI's business model is neutral, as this update represents a clarification rather than a fundamental change to their index operations.
