BSY Cover Image

What Happened?

Shares of infrastructure engineering software company Bentley Systems (NASDAQ: BSY) jumped 5.3% in the morning session after the company was set to be added to the S&P MidCap 400 index. This inclusion, effective before the market opened on Monday, October 6, meant that investment funds tracking the index needed to purchase the company's shares. Such buying activity often leads to increased demand and a higher stock price due to the added visibility. Bentley Systems replaced Western Union in the mid-cap index. Western Union, in turn, moved to the S&P SmallCap 600. The changes in the indexes were prompted by the completed acquisition of Mr. Cooper Group by Rocket Companies.
